Abstract This study aimed to determine the performance of laying hen eggs on the addition of sprouts at Wakhid Farm.
Magetan Regency.
This research was conducted at Wakhid Farm.
Magetan Regency.
Sprouts were soaked for 1 day before being given to the treatment feed.
This study used 4 types of treatment and each treatment consisted of 4 P0 is control .

P1 is 50% corn 15% bran 35% concentrate 5% sprouts.
P2 is 50% corn 15% bran 35% concentrate 10% sprouts and P3 which is 50% corn 15% bran 35% concentrate 15% sprouts.
Observation parameters include feed consumption, hen day production, egg weight and egg mass.
Parameters observed in the study included feed consumption, egg production, hen day production, egg weight and egg mass.

to determine the differences between treatments.
The data obtained showed that the performance of different eggs for each treatment sample had a significant effect on feed consumption, hen day production, egg weight and egg mass.
The results showed that feed consumption was between 118.

The conclusion was that the addition of sprouts did not affect feed consumption, hen day production and egg mass and had a significant effect on egg weight.

Introduction The prospect of laying hens in Indonesia is quite promising on both domestic and foreign markets in terms of supply and demand.
The supply side of the production capacity of laying hens in Indonesia has not yet reached the actual production capacity.
This can be seen from the number of breeding, animal feed and pharmaceutical companies that are still producing so that the prospect of development is still open.
Efforts are being undertaken to improve the efficiency of chicken feed utilization in order to preserve chicken productivity and health, notably by adding additives to the feed, one of which is the use of synbiotics.
In order to improve the effectiveness of laying chickens feed, probiotics and prebiotics are frequently utilized as additives.

Sprouts are young plants that sprout from the seeds of sowed nuts / legumes (Fabacea.
Bean sprouts are sprouts that are made from mung bean seeds.
Mung bean seeds have a moisture content of 5-15 percent.
with this moisture content, the humidity is too low for metabolism to occur, so the first stage of germination is to increase the water content of the seeds by soaking or placing them in a water-saturated environment.
This study aimed to determine the performance of laying hen eggs on the addition of sprouts at Wakhid Farm.
Magetan Regency.
Materials and Methods The research was carried out at Wakhid Farm in Takeran District.
Magetan Regency for 1 week starting from June 2021.
The laying hens used in this study were 64 hens aged 56 weeks.
The experimental design used was a unidirectional completely randomized design (CRD).
Treatments were 4 by 4 times so that 4 x 4 x 4 = 64 experimental units were obtained, including:
A = Control Sample B = Sample Addition of 5% Sprouts C = Sample Addition of 10% Sprouts D = Sample Addition of 15% Sprouts The research variables observed were feed consumption (Zainal, 2.
, hen day production (Devis et al.

, egg weight (Kurtini, 2.
and egg mass (Didik et al.
Feed Intake The consumption of laying hens in the era of the 2000s cannot be taken lightly.
The genetic quality improvement of laying hens can be said to be very spectacular in converting the feed ingredients they consume into eggs and meat.
The logical consequence is that the growth and production of chicken eggs is very dependent on the treatment it receives, including feed treatment.
Hen Day Production Daily egg production was calculated from the number of eggs collected divided by the number of laying hens within a certain period of time in each treatment.
The peak of egg production in laying hens is in the age range of 28-30 weeks with 90% egg production, so the peak production appears.
Egg production is strongly influenced by the level of protein in the feed.
Egg Weight Egg weights that do not differ or are relative is caused by the relative weight of the Chicken weight and egg weight have a positive correlation, chickens with heavier weights produce heavier eggs than chickens with light body weights.

This increase in egg mass occurs due to an increase in Hen Day Production and egg weight, because mathematically egg mass is the product of the multiplication of Hen Day Production and egg weight so that the value will be directly One of the efforts to improve feed quality is the addition of additives in Results and Discussion Feed Intake Feed intake data are presented in Table 1, with analysis showing that 64 hens had no significant effect on laying hens consumption data (P>0.

which states that feed intake in livestock is strongly influenced by its energy content.
Feed consumption will increase if fed with low energy content and vice versa will decrease if fed with high energy content feed.
This is because poultry consume feed mainly to fulfill their energy.
Cattle will stop eating when their energy needs are met.
The timing of feeding also affects feed consumption because the longer the distance from the feeding time, the more nervous the chickens will be.

egg production is influenced by ration consumption, especially protein The food factor that affects egg production is the protein content of the food, because approximately 50% of the dry weight of eggs consists of protein.
The time of taking eggs also affects hen day production because the more often the distance from Bantara Journal of Animal Science Vol.
