Common broiler cage chicken problems

As the demand for broilers continues to increase in recent years, there are more and more farmers breeding broilers. And the broiler is fast, and the farmers can get economic benefits in about 60 days. However, it is precisely because the benefits of broiler chickens are fast, farmers have some problems in management, which may affect the meat yield and health of broilers. Poultry equipment manufacturers have summarized the problems and solutions for some broiler chickens, and now share them.

 

1. Ragus management is unreasonable: Before the chicks, most chicken farmers are not prepared adequately for disinfection, resulting in incomplete disinfection, and the chickens are susceptible to disease, so the farmers should thoroughly disinfect before entering the chicks. And the tools should be disinfected. In addition, the source of some farmers' chicks is not clear enough, resulting in the unclear health of the chicks. When selecting the chicks, the farmers must purchase them from the chicken farms with production licenses and quality trustworthy.

 


 
2. The feeding and drinking time of the flocks is irregular. Drinking water too late will cause the chicks to dehydrate and die. If the food is too late, some chicks will eat other foreign bodies. Farmers should take the chicks to the chicken battery cages, let them rest in the transport box for 30 minutes, then release the chicks for free drinking water for 2-3 hours (the chickens are opened 24 to 36 hours after the shells are opened), and then spread the feed. On the food plate, eat freely. Anti-epidemic drugs can be added to drinking water.

 

3. The temperature of the broiler house is not properly controlled, and the farmer should be controlled at around 33-35 °C in the first week of the chick. Because the survival rate of chicks is directly affected by temperature, the temperature is too low, which will cause the temperature of the chicken body to drop, and the resistance is weak, which causes various diseases; if the temperature is too high, it will cause thermal effects and heat stroke.

 

4. Low awareness of health and epidemic prevention: Most broiler farmers do not have special disinfection facilities at the entrance of the chicken house. It is recommended that farmers have special shoes and clothes when entering and leaving. Do not let people enter and leave the house at will. If there is a diseased chicken, there must be a sense of rapid isolation and disinfection. In terms of disinfection, farmers must have the concept of regular disinfection.
