Thank you for this valuable article, I would like to know the age for the injection. The other question is about the using of a live vaccine with the inactivated vaccine? Generally, we use a mild live vaccine wit the inactivated vaccines at the first day in our farms in Iran.

Greetings. 
Regarding layers flocks, it is preferable to use multiple doses from live and inactivated vaccines, based on the epidemiology of each area:
if the epidemiological situation high, it preferable to use 3-4 inactivated sose along with 3-5 live doses (starting from first week of life then repeated each 3-4 weeks till start production
if the epidemiological situation is not high; use less number of doses, better to combined live and inactivated ND vaccine
if you have additional question, let me know
Regards,
Wael.
