Many large-scale chicken farms have strict requirements for drinking water equipment for chickens. Water-line drinking equipment is usually used, which can take into account functions such as immunization and drug administration. But what if the chicken farm water line is dirty and blocked of poultry farming equipment? How should the waterline be cleaned up?

1. Control of water quality

The drinking water depth of the chicken farm should be more than 100 meters, which will be cleaner.

2. Choose cleaning disinfectant

Choose a cleaning and disinfecting agent that can effectively dissolve biofilm, mucus and scale in the water line. According to the disinfection effect of different disinfectants and the cost of use, choose the appropriate water line immersion disinfection.

3. Immersion cleaning water line and pipeline process during empty period

1) Open the water line and completely drain the water in the pipeline;

2) Add sodium dichloroisocyanurate powder to each water tank, add water to mix evenly, and close the valve of the straight water line;

3) Open the valve at both ends of the water line, release the clean water, open the water line to connect the valve of the water tank, press the last nipple at both ends of the water line to smell the chlorine smell, close the valve, soak and disinfect for 4 hours, which will kill the residual bacteria. And further remove residual biofilm;

4) After the immersion disinfection is completed, close the water tank outlet valve, open the water tank drain valve, drain the remaining disinfection solution, and open the water tank inlet valve, flush the water tank, and close the straight-through pressure regulating valve to open the straight-through Water line valve (not through the pressure regulating valve directly through the water line), then open the valve at both ends of the water line, release the disinfection solution, and then rinse the water line with 1~2 sponge balls;

5) The pipeline from the well to the chicken house should also be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. It is best not to flush the pipeline inside the house with the water in the pipe. The pipe should be connected to the cannula of the dosing device and backflushed. Pipe outside the house;

6) The washing water should contain disinfectant, the concentration is the same as the concentration of drinking water in the feeding period of the chicken, and the disinfection of drinking water is sodium dichloroisocyanurate (the effective concentration of residual chlorine is 3~5ppm disinfecting water).

4. Feeding period soaking water line operation process (night operation)

1) Check whether the sewage connection pipe at both ends of the water line is normal and the water line connection is unblocked;

2) Add sodium dichloroisocyanurate powder (30% effective chlorine) (125g to 200kg water) or 6.5% chlorine dioxide (500g to 200kg water) to each water tank, add water and mix well, and close the straight water. Line valve

3) Turn off the light for 30 minutes or adjust the height of the waterline to a height that the chicken cannot reach;

4) Open the valve at both ends of the waterline, release the clean water, open the waterline to connect the valve of the water tank, press the last nipple at both ends of the waterline to smell the chlorine, close the valve, and immerse for 30 minutes;

5) Close the water outlet valve, open the water tank drain valve, drain the remaining disinfection solution, open the water inlet valve, flush the water tank, close the straight-through pressure regulating valve, and open the straight water line valve (not Pass the pressure regulating valve directly through the water line), then open the valve at both ends of the water line, release the disinfection solution, and then rinse it with 1~2 sponge balls;

6) After the water line of poultry equipment for sale is immersed and disinfected and rinsed, the inflowing water source must be fresh and chlorinated.

Strengthen feeding management and strict sanitation and disinfection measures

1. Provide adequate drinking water in a timely manner. The water content of eggs is about .73%, and the daily water consumption of chickens is 90-325 ml. The higher the egg production rate, the greater the water requirement. For every 10% increase in egg production rate, the daily drinking water per bird increases by 12 ml. The amount of water in summer is doubled in winter, about 2-3 times the amount of feed intake. Therefore, to ensure that the chicken drink clean cold water in a timely manner, the water temperature is about 10 degrees, it is advisable to enter the water pipe of the chicken house to be buried in the ground 90 cm. The best time to drink water should be selected at 6-10 in the morning, and the chickens have the most appetite. When the temperature exceeds 30 degrees, add the right amount of vitamin C per kilogram of drinking water plus 200 mg or 0.1% of baking soda. This will improve the cardiovascular metabolism of the chicken and enhance the body's ability to adapt to high temperatures.

2. Clear chicken manure in time and disinfect regularly. For disinfection of the chicken battery cages, ground, walls, sinks, troughs, etc. of the house, choose a disinfectant that is less corrosive and has a strong killing power against the pathogen. Keep the air fresh and reduce the content of harmful gases such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia in the house.

3. Reduce various stress factors. Human factors such as transfer, transportation, and vaccination should be avoided as much as possible. When it is necessary, it should be chosen at night or in a cool time. In addition, laying hens must have a dark rest time of more than - hours, otherwise the breakage rate of the eggshell will increase. At the same time, add vitamin 1 in drinking water! The same amount as the previous 0.63% ammonium chloride can also alleviate the stress of the flock.

Change the feeding method and adjust the diet formula

1. Adopt two feeding methods. In the morning, it should be fed early, and the feeding time should be extended at night. When it is hot in the afternoon, it can be fed or green-green feed, such as chopped watermelon rind.

2. Appropriately improve the nutritional level of feed. For laying hens, the energy level of the diet can be reduced by about 10%, and the protein level is increased by 1% to 2%. 3% of bean cake or 2% of fishmeal can be added to the diet during specific operations. For broilers, the feed energy can be reduced by 10-15%, and the crude protein is increased by 1%-1.5%. In the specific operation, the cod liver oil can be sprinkled in the feed by 0.3-1 ml per chicken. Note that the summer feed is mildewed and should be ready for feeding. The storage time should not be too long.

3. Increase the content of various vitamins. When the weather is hot, the vitamin content should be increased. The general addition amount is about 2 times normal. In particular, pay attention to increase the content of vitamin 1, vitamin 2, vitamin 3 and vitamin e to promote the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in chickens.

4. Timely calcium supplementation. Most of the calcium absorbed in the morning is stored in the bones. The calcium absorbed in the afternoon or evening can be used for the formation of the eggshell at night. Therefore, the laying hen should be properly replenished at dusk, and the amount should be 2.3% of the diet.

  For chickens, the management of the chicks is very important in chicken battery cages. Whether a chicken farm can be scaled up, the chicks play a big role. In the later period, if the chickens to be sold are profitable, then the brooding can be more than heart. Here are six points to know about raising chicks and chicken farmers.

  1.Disease prevention and control

  Chicks have some common diseases and should be prevented in time to prevent the disease from happening.

  2. Careful care

  In all cases of chickens, chicken farmers should pay more attention to them, such as mental state, feces, drinking and eating, etc., in order to find abnormalities and timely treatment. At the same time, care should be taken to avoid all possible deaths from chicks.

  3. Chicken house environment

  Pay attention to the light, humidity and temperature of the house. Light directly affects the normal growth activities of chicks, so it should be arranged reasonably; in order to prevent dehydration of chicks, chicks within 10 days of age generally need higher humidity; chicks after 10 days of age need to reduce humidity in order to prevent   coccidia; The temperature is very sensitive, it is easy to heatstroke, it is easy to get together and squeeze, so it is appropriate

  4. Feeding density

  Some chicks appear to be paralyzed, which may be caused by excessive stocking density; in addition, too high density can cause harmful gases to increase. So pay attention to the density of brooding.

  5. Strict disinfection

  The disinfection work before entering the chicken must be done well. If it is self-incubating, the utensils and eggs should be disinfected during the incubation period.

  6. Pay attention to drinking water and eating

  When the chicks enter the chicken house, they often have been going through a long time, because there will be a vaccine, shipment and other processes after the shell is released, so you should drink water in time after entering the chicken. The drinking water of the chicks should be cleaned. Generally, cool whites can be used. After   drinking for four or five hours, you can arrange to eat.

In the era of mechanized equipment farming, no matter whether it is raising pigs or raising chickens, it is raised by using chicken raising equipment. In particular, the chicken industry has developed rapidly in recent years, and many chicken breeding equipments have appeared, and there are several kinds of equipment. The automatic chicken equipment has been realized, which enables the chicken users to work more easily and efficiently, improve the growth and production capacity of the chickens, and increase the benefits for the farmers. What are the chicken breeding equipments? The automatic chicken equipment manufacturers will come to summarize and share for the farmers.

1. Chicken cage equipment: Chicken cages are the basis for farmers to achieve equipment breeding. Chicken battery cages are divided into three types: egg cages, broiler cages and brooding cages. They are suitable for laying hens, broilers and chicks. In addition, the use of chicken cage culture can increase the number of chickens raised for breeding, and the chickens can be cultured in cages, which makes it easier for farmers to raise and manage, and has many advantages, and has gradually become the main way of raising chickens.

2. Heating equipment: Heating equipment is mainly used for warming and warming work in winter chicken houses. There are many equipments that can be used for heat preservation and heating. Heating methods such as boiler, electric heating, water heating, coal stove, even fire, mantle and so on can be used. However, most of the large-scale farmers now choose boiler equipment for the insulation of the house.
 
3. Ventilation equipment: the use of equipment to raise chickens must be closed chicken houses, ventilation should be carried out by ventilation equipment, ventilation equipment refers to the fan, according to the flow direction of the airflow in the house, can be divided into horizontal ventilation and There are two types of longitudinal ventilation. The use of fan equipment for ventilation has good controllability, saving time and effort, and high efficiency.

4. Water supply equipment: Water is an indispensable substance for raising chickens. Therefore, drinking water equipment is one of the necessary equipment. From the perspective of saving water and preventing bacterial pollution, the nipple drinker is an ideal water supply equipment, which can realize egg broiler. Automatic drinking water does not require the farmer to manually feed water, and the efficiency is high, but the farmer should pay attention to the need to choose a water dispenser that does not leak water.

In recent years, with the rapid development of the chicken industry, many people have begun to use chicken battery cages to raise chickens, and many new problems have begun to plague farmers. If farmers want to achieve better economic benefits in raising chickens, the following issues should be regulated.

Blind introduction Some farmers only buy chicken seedlings when they buy chicken seedlings. They do not choose chickens with good varieties, healthy and disease-free, and strong adaptability. As a result, the survival rate is low, the growth rate is slow, and no money can be earned. Some farmers simply pursue profits, do not consider local natural conditions and breeding conditions, blindly pursue new varieties. Some breed broilers together with laying hens, some will raise different batches of chickens, and some even buy chicks from infected areas, which will bring difficulties to feeding management.

Feeding method is wrong

1. Add material to work. The feed powder contains more nutrients such as amino acids, multivitamins and trace elements, while chickens have the habit of eating large grains. If the feed is too much, the chickens eat a large amount of large feed, resulting in the proportion of nutrients invested. Unbalanced, affecting chicken growth and egg production rate.

2. Suddenly refueling. Due to factors such as the growth stage of the chicken, the market price and other factors, when the feed needs to be replaced, if the feed is suddenly changed without transition, it is easy to cause the chicken to be stimulated and even cause death.

Poor management

1. The disinfection system is not perfect. The vast majority of chicken farmers lack understanding of the concept of disinfection system, 90% of professional housing is very strict, but there is no disinfection pool at the door of the chicken house; 80% of professional households do not wear disinfection suits and shoes at all; 30% Professional households are closely related to their neighbours, and they are allowed to enter and exit the chicken house. The internal and external environment is poor. 50% disinfection method is single, only focusing on air disinfection, not paying attention to drinking water and feed disinfection, while most of the water used by village farmers is polluted on the surface. Well water.

2. Ignore elimination and overemphasize the survival rate. On the one hand, some farmers do not eliminate weak chickens and chickens in the reserve chickens. On the other hand, they ignore the elimination of old and low-yielding hens, and do not pay attention to calculating the ratio of input to output, thus affecting economic benefits.

3. The faeces are piled up, and the sick and dead chickens are thrown. 80% of the professional households did not harmlessly treat sick and dead chickens. They were thrown upside down on the roads, behind houses, in idle areas, and encountered rainwater. The manure flowed through the ground, seriously polluting the surface water, and infected with the pathogens. Some farmers often slaughter chicken at the door of the chicken house, or throw the dead chicken to dogs and cats at random, without disinfection, which may easily cause outbreaks in the flock.

1, expand the door and window of the chicken house, roof skylights, make full use of natural wind cooling with poultry cages for sale.

2, after the wind has a certain wind speed, you can spray the water in the house, using water evaporation to reduce the temperature has a significant effect. It is worth noting that in the case of low wind speed in the house, it is
forbidden to spray and cool down. At this time, the spray is not conducive to the body heat dissipation of the chicken.

3, take the longitudinal ventilation to install the wet curtain to ensure the safety of the chicken group in summer.

4, let the chicken drink cool water, lower temperature drinking water can reduce the chicken's heat stress.

5, change the feeding time, increase the number of feeding to increase the feed intake of the chicken.

6, improve the nutrient concentration of the breeder diet, reduce energy, increase the amount of amino acids and vitamins added. Vitamin C can be added to drinking water. The recommended dosage is 10 g/kg.

7, the house insists on removing feces, sewage, sundries, etc. every day to prevent it from producing heat in the house.

8， When the nurses observe, feed, supply water, clean, and pick eggs, the action should be light, keep the house quiet, and prevent the rough and frightened chickens from causing stress.

9， When the flock is breathing due to high heat, take emergency measures, spray the chicken's head with water to help dissipate heat, and stop breathing quickly to prevent the occurrence of heat fainting.

10， If you find a chicken with heat stroke, you should immediately transfer it to a cool, ventilated place.

1. There is a large market for chicken product development in recent years. With the rapid development of the market economy and the improvement of residents' living standards, high-quality chicken products are gradually becoming the foods necessary for residents' consumption, and are more and more common in the ordinary residents' living table. With the continuous expansion of the domestic market, the international market is gradually being opened. In general, the domestic chicken market share is still low, and chicken products still have a large consumption space.

2. Pursuing the concept of health and developing green chicken products at this stage, residents pay more and more attention to environmental protection and health. At the same time, the improvement of economic income level has made it possible for residents to pursue high-quality muscle products. For a long time, the pursuit of green natural healthy organic food will become the leading sales of chicken products. Therefore, for a long period of time in the future, farmers should respect the market demand, change the business philosophy, and take the lead in developing green and healthy chicken products. For example, advertised "green" eggs, etc., have a very good market price, and are popular among consumers.

3. Normalized chickens are industrialized and scaled. At present, the overall scale of the chicken industry is not high. Especially in the grassroots aquaculture process, there are widespread free-range and small-scale operations. In the future, with the improvement of the chicken market, especially the development of well-known enterprises, the development of the chicken industry tends to be industrialized and scaled. In rural areas, a large number of chicken cooperatives have emerged, creating a one-stop business model from farmer farming to corporate management. The benefits of industrialization and large-scale operation are standardization of treatment. To achieve the goal of improving product quality from the source, better resist the impact of adverse market fluctuations on the chicken industry and ensure the overall efficiency of chicken raising.

4. Ecological chicken raising should be free of drug residues and meet the requirements of health standards. At present, the awareness of environmental protection of residents is enhanced, and the awareness of chicken meat without drug residues and compliance with health insurance requirements is getting higher and higher. In the future, raising chickens will not meet the health and quarantine standards. If the drug residues exceed the standard, it should be ruthlessly eliminated. Therefore, under the new situation, raising chickens, grassroots chicken farmers should start from the source, pay attention to the production of good chicken products, and strictly control the chicken meat.

First, strictly control the feed, control the use of additives, disinfectants, drugs, etc., to prevent drug residues. Second, the use of illegal antibiotics is prohibited during the production of chickens. If production requires the use of antibiotics and drugs, it should be used according to the amount and on time under the guidance of professional practitioners, and abuse is prohibited. Third, strengthen the management of the house. The sewage in the poultry breeding equipment in the house is cleaned in time, concentrated and disposed of to avoid infection of pathogenic bacteria. At the same time, pay attention to doing daily disease prevention work, strict disinfection and quarantine, and ensure the clean and hygienic environment.

In the process of breeding chickens in poultry cage equipment, it is difficult to avoid the occurrence of cold. This is also the cause of chicken disease. The main reason for the cold is that the ventilation is unreasonable. Sometimes the temperature of the house is very stable and the weather is not too big. Change, why is the chicken still suffering from cold and cold? Let's take a look at it.

1, cool breeze

Many chicken houses have respiratory diseases, many of which are caused by management errors, mostly because of wind. The wind at the air inlet is blocked on the pre-warming route and falls directly on the chicken body, so that the chickens are cooled. Therefore, it is necessary to take protective measures in the place where the air inlet is near the window.

2, The humidity requirement during brooding is very high. The humidity requirement can be achieved by artificial humidification. In the humidification process, the water pipe can be directly watered to the ground, the water temperature is very low, and the cool air generated after the water evaporates directly attacks the chickens. In the abdomen, the chicks are cold. We can put a few more buckets of water in the chicken house and sprinkle them directly when used.

3, the temperature given by the thermometer in the chicken house is only a reference data, the specific temperature still has to learn to see the chicken temperature, according to the response of the flock to see if the temperature is reasonable, many new farmers do not know just look at the thermometer does not see The reaction of the flock sometimes causes the flock to catch a cold.

The above is the chicken raising problem. In order to effectively reduce the cold of the flock and produce various complications of chicken disease, it is necessary to do these management points.

The layer chicken cages effectively improved the utilization rate of the land and the pens, but the chicken houses were tightly closed, the ventilation was not good, and the harmful gases in the circle were easily exceeded. At the same time, the caged chickens were fixed in narrow cages and isolated from the soil. , easy to start all kinds of diseases. It affects the breeding benefits, so the management of cage laying hens is particularly important.

1. Choose a variety

There are many excellent laying hens inside and outside, such as the self-supporting chicken, Luodao red chicken, Xianju chicken, Xiaoshan chicken, etc. On the basis of excellent laying hens, the products are bred by advanced breeding methods. It is also a species commonly selected by farmers today, such as Roman brown hens, Hailan brown shell hens, etc. When selecting laying hens, it is necessary to choose a disease resistance, adaptability, and production according to local natural and climatic conditions. Eggs with more eggs and less material consumption. When introducing seeds, it is necessary to strictly abide by the relevant quarantine requirements stipulated by national regulations and to complete quarantine procedures.

2. Use good feed

It is recommended that farmers use full-price compound feed in the process of laying hens: full-price compound feed can meet the nutritional needs of chicks, broiler chickens and laying hens without using other substances in the process of use: Many, the price difference is large, the quality is uneven, the farmers must make more choices when purchasing, shop around, to be of high quality, not to be cheap, otherwise it will not be worth the candle.

3. Scientific management

Chicks from 0 to 6 weeks old are called chicks. The chicks have poor body temperature regulation, rapid growth and development, weak digestion, poor disease resistance, strong sensitivity and timidity. Therefore, the focus of chick feeding is to increase the survival rate.

Before the brooding, we will thoroughly disinfect the chicken house, chicken cage, etc. with the net poisoning, or flame disinfection: after disinfecting the drinking fountain and the trough with Corvwei and bacteria poisoning disinfectant, clean and spare. Within 1 to 2 days before brooding, the temperature inside the house was raised to about 35 °C, and the relative humidity was maintained at about 70%.

4. Temperature, humidity and lighting

Chicks are sensitive to temperature, humidity and light, especially the first 2 W of brooding. On the first day of brooding, the temperature of the pens should be 32-34 ° C, then reduce by 0.5-0.7 cc per day, about 3 ° C per week, until the end of 42 d brooding to 20 ° C: high humidity will Affects water metabolism and is prone to pathogen reproduction; when humidity is too low, it affects yolk absorption and is prone to cause respiratory diseases. The control principle of relative humidity is: high in the early stage and low in the late stage, that is, the humidity before the 10th day is 60% to 70%, and 55% to 60% after the 10th age: the intensity and time of the light affect the feed intake and sexual maturity of the chick. The process, so use the 60.100 w bulb 3 d before brooding, each eye N23 h left; after 3 d, change to 45 ~ 25 W bulb. The illumination time is decremented by 1~2 h per week: natural light plus nighttime fill mode can also be used.

The caged laying hens have high density of feeding and high egg production performance. The raising and management of caged laying hens can effectively improve the breeding efficiency. In the management of chicks, it is better to “make a living” and to control the breeding of chickens. In the management of laying hens, the “nutrition” can be achieved to maximize the breeding benefits.

Laying hens are hoping that their own laying hens can maintain a high egg production rate and thus achieve higher economic returns. In fact, it is not difficult to improve the laying rate of laying hens. The premise is to raise the laying hens. Let's take a look at the technical points of laying hens.

I. Breeding and training

    We can first select the laying hens with higher egg rate for feeding, while ensuring the average weight, shape, bone development, disease-free and harmless among the youth groups. Due to the high summer temperatures and the decreased appetite of the hens, we usually recommend farming in the fall.

2. Feeding environment

Laying hens are very sensitive to light, and the light helps the hens to ovulate, so the chicken farmers need to increase the daily light in a timely manner to increase the egg laying rate. However, this extended time is based on a combination of factors such as their weight and mental condition. Generally, for normal laying hens, it is recommended to increase the illumination by 30min/day. Pay attention not to exceed 120min per day. If the standard is not reached, it can be extended for 15min. It is recommended that the intensity be controlled between 8~10Lux and should not exceed 12Lux. The temperature in the house is regulated to 23.5 to 28 degrees Celsius. In addition, the comfortable temperature and humidity will increase the egg rate. Generally, the temperature is controlled between 23-28 degrees and the humidity is maintained between 60% and 70%. It is appropriate.

3. Feed management

It is important to know that too much egg layup will result in the lack of nutrients in the laying hens, and malnutrition will cause them to stop laying eggs, so ensure that multi-dimensional, high-quality, palatable feed is provided during the laying period. Adding calcium, eating less and eating more, and maintaining the orderly supply of clear water is also one of the keys to maintaining egg rate. If the water is more than 1200min, the egg output will be reduced by 28%, and it takes 30 days to recover. If the water is cut for more than 2 days, it will directly cause them to die.

With the continuous development of fully automatic poultry raising equipment, the authors suggest that you use automatic breeding equipment for management as much as possible, saving time and effort, and being very safe and hygienic.
