Feeding management of chickens in layer cage system

The focus of feeding and management of chickens in the layer cage system is summarized as "three catches and five preventions". The three grasping refers to: grasping management (focus on keeping the temperature, while doing a good job of ventilation); grasping epidemic prevention (sanitation, disinfection, immunization); grasping disease prevention and control. Five preventions refer to: prevention of disease (especially respiratory diseases); prevention of cold stress; fire prevention; prevention of poisoning; prevention of too low humidity.

 

  1. First of all, we must carefully select the breeding personnel, they must have a certain degree of poultry breeding experience and experience in the operation of automatic poultry farming equipment. Breeders with rich experience have professional knowledge of poultry and can better carry out breeding management.
  2. Poultry farmers should create a good growth environment for the chickens, pay attention to the four elements of heat preservation, ventilation, temperature, light and appropriate density, to create a comfortable growth environment for the chickens. The chickens can grow well if they rest well.
  3. Farmers must choose to use an all-in, all-out system to raise broilers, and must strictly implement epidemic prevention and disinfection. They must implement reasonable daily management and regular cleaning and disinfection, and clean chicken manure frequently to eliminate flies, mosquitoes, rats, and ants. , Reduce pathogens and avoid stress.
  4. Feed is an important guarantee for the healthy growth of broilers. Farmers should provide fresh, safe and hygienic feed in a timely manner, and they must carefully manage and use the feed to eliminate waste and reduce the cost of raising chickens.
  5. Drinking water hygiene is very important. Farmers must provide sufficient water, and farmers must ensure the quality of the water and the sanitation of drinking water equipment. The drinking water system must be cleaned and disinfected frequently, and don't be afraid of trouble.
  6. When vaccinating chickens, farmers must strictly follow the regulations to set up scientific and reasonable immunization procedures, and do a good job of vaccinating chickens.
  7. Farmers should observe the flocks frequently, strengthen supervision of the flocks, and accurately diagnose and treat diseases in time.
  8. To prevent human-made infections, we must do a good job of personal hygiene. Chicken manure and sick and dead chickens must be treated in a timely manner and harmless to control environmental pollution.

 

The above points are the key points for the management of chicken house in battery chicken cages shared by poultry equipment manufacturers. Hope to help poultry farmers again.

What should I pay attention to when raising broilers in winter?

In winter, the temperature is very cold, and the temperature required by the automated chicken cage equipment is very different from the outside temperature. Ventilation and heat preservation must be done well. When ventilating, be careful not to fluctuate the temperature in the warehouse. In order to prevent stress and disease caused by excessive temperature difference, the vent should be 1.5 meters higher than the back of the chicken. When the working temperature drops sharply, the insulation work cannot keep up, which often causes the broilers to feel cold, cough, sneeze, and have difficulty breathing. Therefore, breeders must do a good job in temperature changes, cold protection, and heat preservation to prevent thieves and draughts from attacking the chickens.

 

In winter, the temperature is very cold. In addition to heat preservation work, it is necessary to promptly remove the flocks of excrement and wet litter. If it is not cleaned up in time, it will cause the accumulation of ammonia in the chicken house and increase its concentration, which may cause ammonia poisoning or cause broiler diseases. Moreover, due to the accumulation of ammonia and the relative lack of oxygen, coupled with severe cold weather, chickens have a fast metabolism, and broilers that grow too fast are prone to ascites. Therefore, farmers should lay more than 5 cm of litter to prevent the sink from leaking and wetting the litter. If the humidity is too high, remove the feces and wet litter in time, or use ammonia-absorbent deodorant to reduce the ammonia concentration in the chicken house.

 




According to different growth stages of broilers, diets should be configured according to feeding standards. Due to the lower temperature in winter, the broilers consume more calories, and the humidity of the medicine improves the metabolizable energy standard of the feed. At the same time, the proportion of protein is appropriately reduced to meet the demand for vitamins. Feed should be prepared immediately to prevent freezing. If possible, feed after heating. The configured feed must be free of mildew and impurities to prevent respiratory diseases.

 

 
In the breeding process, regular disinfection is required to prevent the spread of diseases, and insist on disinfection with chickens to eliminate rodents. After sick chickens are sick, they should be isolated from healthy chickens for treatment, and dead chickens should be buried deeply. Try to reduce the necessary stress factors in the breeding process, take all feasible means to feed the chickens, ensure the body's energy needs, and enhance the chicken's disease resistance.
