Please note the signature of the Form::text method:

/**
* Create a text input field.
*
* @param  string $name
* @param  string $value
* @param  array  $options
*
* @return string
*/
public function text($name, $value = null, $options = [])

Just change:

{!! Form::text('initialbarcode',array("id"=>"initialbarcode"))!!}

to

{!! Form::text('initialbarcode', null, ["id"=>"initialbarcode"]) !!}
