The use of laying hens to raise laying hens is a popular method in the breeding industry in recent years and is also the result of the continuous development of science and technology. The use of layer chicken cages has enabled many laying hens to achieve intensive, large-scale farming models, and the chicken farming has been rapidly developed. The breeding method has improved, and the breeding technology has naturally changed, so that it can be adapted to the new farming methods and cooperate with each other to make the laying hens perform better. The following authors will introduce the key points of the use of layer rearing equipment to raise laying hens.
1. Use chicken layer cages to raise the density of chickens: Feeding density refers to the area of the cage bottom of each square chicken. On a certain chicken house ground, the higher the stocking density, the more chickens are raised, but the density is too large, the chicken house is poor in air, the chicken activity and diet are inconvenient, and the growth rate and egg production rate are reduced. The result is more harmless. Therefore, even if it is raised at a high density, the density should be appropriate and not too dense.
2. When using chicken cages to raise chickens, it is necessary to place enough feeding tanks and sinks: in large groups of high-density feeding conditions, it is necessary to keep each chicken with the proper length of the feeding trough and the sink. And place these feeding troughs and sinks as evenly as possible in all parts of the house. In this way, although the density of the flock is high, each chicken can have a certain position and can eat and drink near the water, so as to ensure that the water is not lacking, so that the production performance is not affected.
3. Use chicken cages to raise chickens to enhance ventilation: Multi-layer feeding of egg cages is a high-density feeding mode. Therefore, under high-density feeding conditions, the number of chickens is so large that the amount of breathing is large, and the relative humidity and the concentration of harmful gases in the house are also likely to rise. In the high temperature season, the temperature of the house is also easy to rise. In order to maintain a good air condition in the house, ventilation equipment must be installed or added to increase the ventilation and constantly exchange enough fresh air.
4. The chicks are doing the work of breaking the worms: large groups of high-density breeding can easily cause mutual ignorance. In order to prevent the occurrence of cockroaches, anal sputum, reduce the death of chickens, avoid the waste of chicken picky feed, etc., usually at 6-10 days old, cut the chicken cockroaches together and cut 1/3-1/2.
5. Control the light intensity of the chicken house: When the breeding density is high and the light is very strong, it is easy to cause the chicken’s irritability and restlessness. Even after the broken sputum, the phenomenon of sputum anal will occur, and the closed chicken house will grow the chicken illuminance. It should be in 5-10 lux, and the laying hens are in 10 lux. If the ordinary chicken house is very light, when the anal fistula occurs, the chicken house should be obscured as much as possible under the condition of ensuring proper ventilation.
The above five points are some of the points that the author tells the farmers about the techniques of laying hens in the process of raising chickens in layer chicken cages. There are many technical points in the use of layer chicken cages to raise chickens, whether it is the environment, feeding or immunization, and disinfection. Only the laying hens can be better kept, so that the laying hens can play better performance. Therefore, it is recommended that farmers should thoroughly study the laying culture technology before selecting chicken cages to raise chickens, so that they can breed better, thank you for your attention!
