The use of battery cages in feeding has greatly increased the yield during the feeding process and has ensured the safety of the laying hens during the feeding process. For example, in the feeding of laying hens, the chicken cage can be excellent to isolate the contact between the chicken and the stool, which is beneficial to the control of coccidiosis and intestinal diseases, and the chicken feces leak under the chicken cage, which can be sorted and lowered in time. The harmful gas content in the house, while using fan ventilation, to reduce the timing of the disease, the following will follow the author to understand the advantages of chicken battery cages.
1. Save land. There are only 5 chickens per square meter in the house, and 15-25 in the cage, which is 3-5 times more than the chickens. Generally, the flat chicken house has a playground that is twice as large as the chicken house. Each flat chicken is 6-10 times larger than the cage.
2. Save feed. The caged laying hens have less activity, the winter density is high, the house temperature is higher, the chicken body is used to maintain less energy, and generally eats 1-2 yuan less than the flat chicken.
3. Save time. When raising the feed, the chicken is called back, it is very difficult to feed, the caged chicken ring is in the cage, feeding along the line in front of the cage, adding water, quail eggs, investigating chickens, catching chickens, etc. Convenient, there is no need to lay grass or soil washers, and it is more labor-saving to clean the dung. It is to feed hundreds of chickens, and it will take a lot of time every day.
4. Conducive to disease prevention. Chickens are not kept in the cage and do not touch the feces, so the timing of infection is greatly reduced. The eggs laid are not in contact with grass, soil, and feces, and the appearance is very clean. The house does not have soil and grass, the dust is less, and the environment is cleaner. Pure feces are removed from the cage and can be used as feed after drying at high temperature, which contains a lot of non-protein nitrogen.
5. Save labor. Achieve loading, feeding, drinking, cleaning, and fully automated control of the environment, greatly reducing the labor intensity of workers and saving labor costs.
