The number of chickens per square meter of feeding area of ​​automatic broiler equipment is called stocking density, and the feeding and drinking position occupied by each chicken is also an indispensable condition for grasping stocking density. If the density is too high, the flock is crowded, the environmental humidity is increased, the feed intake is uneven, the chick flock is not well-developed, susceptible to disease and pecking, the chick's constitution becomes weak, the mortality rate increases, and the growth rate decreases.

The density is small, although it is conducive to the survival and growth of chicks, but it is not conducive to heat preservation and is not economical. The density should be adjusted according to the type of chick, breed, brooding method, season, age, ventilation and other factors. Automatic breeding equipment cage brooding should be sparsely grouped with the increase of age, the density should be reduced by about 30% at 3-4 weeks of age, and the density should be reduced by about 15% at 5-6 weeks of age.

Egg-type chicks at 1-4 weeks of age occupy a trough position of 2 to 2.5 cm each, and increase to 5.0 cm each at 5-6 weeks of age. If feeding buckets are used, 35 chicks per bucket at 1-4 weeks of age and 25 chicks per bucket at 5-6 weeks of age. One-week-old chicks usually use vacuum drinkers, each of which can provide water for 50 to 70 chickens. If a water tank is used, the position of each water tank for 0-6 week-old chicks is 1 to 2 cm.

Broiler chickens are suitable for higher densities, but this also depends on specific conditions. Generally, the stocking density of flat raising on the net is higher than that of the bedding field, and the ventilation conditions are good, and the density can be appropriately increased. Stocking density can be increased by 10% in winter and reduced by 10%-20% in summer.

A reasonable stocking density can provide chicks with an equal opportunity to drink water and feed, which is conducive to improving uniformity, and can also prevent chicks from pecking anus and feathers.

Poultry equipment manufacturers believe that in the process of feeding laying hens, it is necessary to clearly understand the drinking habits of laying hens, especially the laying hens in the laying period. Therefore, today I will analyze the drinking habits of laying hens with you.

First of all, when using automated chicken raising equipment to feed laying hens, it can be mastered by observing the drinking habits of laying hens. Through daily observation, farmers should be able to clearly understand the daily drinking water peak of laying hens. Generally speaking, the peak drinking water of laying hens will be in the three time periods of 8:00 am, 12:00 noon and 6:00 pm every day. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure the adequacy of water according to the peak time of drinking water.

In addition, when using the layer battery cage systems to feed laying hens, you should also know that the water intake of laying hens in different seasons is also different. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully observe the drinking water of laying hens in each season, so as to feed according to different water intake, which will also help to improve the egg production of laying hens.

In addition, generally speaking, the water consumption of laying hens is about 200 ml in spring and autumn, about 280 ml in summer, and about 110 ml in winter.

The above content is the drinking habits of laying hens analyzed by the poultry equipment manufacturers.

How to reduce the egg breaking rate of laying hens? Many laying hen manufacturers have such doubts. Compare when using layer cage equipment. Many cannot be solved directly. Here are some solutions

1. To meet the nutritional needs, especially the content of calcium and vitamin D3, the content of phosphorus should be appropriate, and the ratio of calcium and phosphorus should be mastered, which is generally around 3.4-4.6:1.

2. Increase the number of egg inspections and avoid collisions with each other, especially during the concentrated egg-laying time, and light actions should be taken when picking up and moving eggs.

3. In the high temperature season, increase the calcium content in the diet appropriately, the calcium content is between 3.7-5%, and should not exceed 5%, and add baking soda (0.25% sodium bicarbonate instead of 0.2% salt) to the drinking water and Vitamin C (50-100 mg/kg) can both reduce heat stress in chickens and improve eggshell quality.

4. The number of egg-laying boxes for flat chickens should be sufficient, and the bottom of the cage should be covered with clean and soft cushions; the bottom of the cage should not be too steep, and the lead wire should not be too thick. Cushioning is used on the sloped turns of the egg line.

5. From 50-60 weeks of age, a short-term fasting for 3-7 days was performed, the egg production was the same as that of the non-fasting group, the eggshell strength was significantly increased compared with the non-fasting treatment, and the egg breaking rate was greatly reduced.

6. To keep the flock healthy and not get sick, many diseases will not only reduce the egg production rate, but also reduce the quality of the egg shell, causing the egg breakage rate to increase.

7. For brown-shell hens with good eggshell quality, the breakage rate of brown-shell eggs is lower than that of white-shell eggs.

8. Reduce the occurrence of stress factors and keep the environment inside and outside the house quiet and comfortable.

There are many factors that go into the success or failure of raising chickens. For example, the selection of chicks, the purchase of chicken raising equipment, the survival rate of chickens, and the management of chicken houses, etc. Today, let’s discuss the key to raising chickens well.

Before entering the chicks, poultry farmers must clean the hen house and carry out strict disinfection.

suitable temperature and humidity. Temperature is one of the key factors for the success or failure of brooding. Providing a suitable temperature can effectively improve the survival rate of chicks. Due to the imperfect thermoregulatory function of chicks, chicks are very sensitive to temperature. If the temperature is too low, the chicks are easy to swarm, squeeze and die. Generally, the chicken house is required to be 32°C to 35°C in the first week, and then drop by 2°C to 3°C every week after that. Too high or too low humidity is not conducive to the growth and development of chicks. The humidity is generally 65% to 70% from 1 to 10 days old, and remains at 55% to 65% after 10 days of age.

Buy battery chicken cages. The use of poultry cages can not only reduce manpower and material resources, but also provide a good and comfortable growing environment for chickens. Make the chicken happy, increase the conversion rate, and finally create more economic benefits for you.

Strengthen ventilation. The chick has a strong metabolism, and the fresh air and exhaled carbon dioxide and water vapor required per unit body weight are large, and the ammonia gas is continuously released from the chicken manure. Unfavorable environmental factors in the house will bring stress to the chickens, affect the normal activities of the chickens, affect the growth and development of the body, reduce the immune function of the body, increase the probability of disease infection in the body, and hinder the growth and development of chickens to varying degrees. Therefore, the brooding room should pay special attention to ventilation.

Strengthen the management of chicken houses. The breeder should always check the feeding and drinking conditions of the chicks, and pick out weak and sick chicks by observing the mental state of the chicks. Chicken manure should be observed every morning. Normally, it should be gray-white with a layer of white urate on it. It is moderately thick and curly. If it is found that the stool is abnormal, effective measures should be taken in time.

The above is the experience of raising laying hens summarized by poultry equipment manufacturers. Strictly control the management system of the chicken house to make the chicken life more comfortable and make your poultry farm develop better.

In the process of raising egg broilers in summer, fans and wet curtains in automatic chicken raising equipment are common mechanized cooling and ventilation equipment. In summer, the temperature of the chicken house is high, and farmers need timely ventilation and cooling to ensure that the chickens grow in a comfortable environment. The use of fans and wet curtains requires electricity, so what should farmers do in case of power failure in the chicken house? So that the chickens will not be affected by the high temperature?

The suggested ways to deal with high temperature power outages in the chicken house in summer are as follows:

1. Many chicken-raising equipments that operate chicken house now require electricity. Once the power outage will not only affect the temperature, but also affect other normal chicken-raising work. Therefore, in order to avoid the above losses, the editor recommends that farmers must be equipped with emergency equipment. So as to minimize the impact on the house, flock and work.

2. If the power of the chicken house is cut off in summer, farmers can collect artificial water spray to cool down, and use high-pressure guns for artificial rainfall, which can effectively reduce the temperature of the chicken farm.

3. In summer, when the chicken house is powered off, farmers can also use water cooling equipment in the chicken house, such as laying water pipes, to reduce the temperature of the chicken farm.

4. The high temperature will increase the drinking water of the chickens, and the chickens will also rely on water to dissipate heat, so there is no power outage. In summer, farmers must ensure that the chickens have sufficient drinking water. It is recommended that farmers choose cooler ones. Water for the chickens to drink.

5. Improve the environment inside and outside the chicken house, plant green belts outside the chicken house to increase the shade area of the chicken house, improve the environment around the chicken house, and plant vines or trees around the chicken house to cover cooling effect.

The above are the emergency measures shared by poultry equipment manufacturers for sudden power outages when using automated chicken raising equipment and some emergency methods on how to cool the chicken house. Reduce the loss of chicken flocks in the event of an unexpected power failure. In fact, farmers can reduce this risk to a certain extent as long as they scientifically construct the chicken house and do a good job in the ventilation environment of the chicken house. Usually, farmers should prepare an emergency generator. just in case.

Most breeding users know that group breeding is a relatively common method, such as chicken breeding, which has a lot of knowledge. So do you know the advantages of using poultry battery cage systems to raise chickens?

The so-called chicken cage is to raise chickens in cages welded with wire. Design different types of chicken cages according to chicken breeds, genders and chicken ages. Then, the main advantages of chicken cages: First, the chickens are well protected against epidemics and effectively prevent infectious diseases. The chicken does not touch the feces, which can make the chicken grow healthier, provide a clean and comfortable growth environment for the chicken, and greatly advance the time of slaughter. 

Battery chicken cages can be raised with fully automated equipment, such as automated poultry egg collection system, poultry manure cleaning system, poultry feeding system, poultry drinking water system, poultry environmental control system, etc. In this way, manpower can be saved and large-scale breeding can be realized. A chicken house can exceed tens of thousands. This is far incomparable to free-range breeding, so that it can meet the needs of the society.

The chicken cage breeding equipment is mainly designed by galvanized material mesh, under normal circumstances, it is not easy to be scratched or bumped, and the use time is about 20 years. In this way, poultry farmers can use automatic poultry farming equipment to breed chickens for many years.

The use of poultry battery chicken cages not only helps farmers reduce the management burden, but also satisfies the society's demand for poultry products. So the use of automated poultry equipment in your farm is very beneficial, if you have any needs, please come to consult.

The advent of broiler equipment has helped farmers solve many problems, and it has also increased the survival rate of chickens, so it is deeply loved by farmers, but no matter how good the equipment, if you want to extend its service life and reduce its maintenance rate, Then we must first grasp the main points of the use of broiler equipment. Next, our broiler equipment manufacturer summarizes it for everyone. I hope you can read it carefully and look forward to your reading. Thank you for your support.

Precautions for the use of broiler equipment: We know that broiler equipment contains many conveyors and egg collectors. In order to reduce the wear of these equipment, we should fill the transmission parts such as gears in the conveyor with lubricating oil every month, as well as broiler equipment. Lubricating oil needs to be filled regularly, and regular cleaning should be done; clean the surface of the conveyor and collector in time to prevent debris and eggshells from accumulating on the surface of the conveyor belt, causing additional power consumption or directly damaging the conveyor device.

Floppy disks and broken egg collection trays may leave residual eggshells, straw scraps and other debris, which need to be cleaned from time to time to ensure the performance of the collector; we all know that the direction of wind in each season is different Therefore, we need to properly adjust the location of the ventilation system by separating the seasons and wind directions. In fact, these are detailed issues, but they can directly affect the service life of the broiler equipment, so we should not ignore these issues.

There are many hot days in summer, pay attention to the use of ventilation and cooling equipment to properly ventilate and cool the chicken house, and regularly use automatic chicken raising equipment to disinfect the chicken house, always pay attention to the status of the chicken flock, and take timely measures if any abnormalities are found ,respond. Conditional farmers can install a fully automatic environmental controller, which can monitor and record the humidity, temperature, etc. in the chicken house at all times after networking; fill the broiler equipment with butter for maintenance, and the motor bucket can drop a few drops of vegetable oil to prevent rust. Check that the buckle of the material line and the screws of the lifting system are tightened again, and check whether the line switches and contacts of the material line control are loose to prevent poor contact.
