An experiment was conducted to improve the immunity and egg production of stressed laying birds by organic chromium supplementation for a period of 6 weeks. Total of 5000 birds (White Leghorn chicken, BV 300 strain) were divided into 5 groups (T1 to T5) having 10 replicates in each group and each replicates having 100 birds with an initial age of 33 weeks. The experimental groups are as follows: T1 is control unaffected by Newcastle disease (ND); all other groups (T2 to T5) were affected by ND and recovering from the disease. T2 is not supplemented with chromium source and act as negative control. T3, T4 and T5 were supplemented with chromium chloride, chromium yeast and chromium picolinate @ 300 ppb, respectively. The results revealed that weekly average egg production was significantly (P
