The mites were collected from 5 different regions of hen at head and neck, wings, thorax and abdomen, tail and legs. The result shows that 70 out of 80 layer hen had been infested by mites. Total of 1842 mites had been found in 70 infested layer hens. Farm 4 had the highest prevalence of mites which is 100% and the least prevalence with 60% is found in farm 3. Prevalence of mite’s infestation that occurs on layer hen in Kuningan is around 87.5%.
