Scientific breeding is critical. In the past, people surrounded a large area of land and allowed chickens to move inside. Now it is not enough. The land is worth money. There is not so much capital to invest in, and only relying on automatic maintenance of laying hens for scientific breeding. So choosing chicken equipment is a very important thing.
Here we take a look at how the farming is more reasonable and saves costs.
The trough structure and placement height should be reasonable. If the trough is too small or too shallow to spill, it will cause waste. If the trough is too large or too deep or placed too high, it will affect the feeding and growth of the chicken. In general, it is advisable to place a height of about 2 cm above the back of the chicken. The amount of feed should be appropriate. According to statistics, the wastage rate of feed added to the tank at 2/3 is about 12%, about 5% at 1/2, and about 2% at 1/3. Therefore, it is advisable not to exceed one-third of the depth of the feeding trough at each feeding. Timely interruptions. Chicks are cut at 6-9 days, which can effectively reduce feed wastage and prevent chickens from occurring.
Weigh regularly. For chickens that are overweight, there is no restriction on feed. This will not only affect the egg production rate but also waste feed. Therefore, the birds need to be weighed from time to time and reared separately according to the size of the chicken. Fifth, science storage feed. Especially in summer and autumn, the feed is susceptible to moisture and mold deterioration, or the value of feed is reduced due to increased fat oxidation, resulting in waste. Therefore, store feeds should be protected from light, ventilation, moisture, and insects, and feed as little as possible during the rainy season. Sixth, feed must be full price, nutrient balance. Chickens cannot absorb nutrients in feed without limit. If the feed mix is unreasonable, too much nutrients can only be wasted; if the feed is too thick, the feeds with different particle sizes will be excreted by the chicken soon after consumption. Causes waste. Therefore, full-price feeds should be used rationally, such as self-ingredients, and they must be formulated in strict accordance with the standards.
Is it cheaper to buy a hens' automated equipment? Egg laying equipment and cage chicken equipment are directly related to the efficiency of the farmers. Many broiler chickens have a poor balance between brooding, breeding, and laying hens, and are not in compliance with the requirements. The rearing area is often too small, the breeding density is too large, and the feed and drinking trough are not enough. It can be said that this is a common problem common to chicken farmers and one of the important factors affecting the economic efficiency of laying hens. There are also some chicken farmers who use more chickens, use fewer rooms, or have no extra premises to feed chickens. Prematurely feeding the chicks on cages will adversely affect the growth and development of the young chicks, and eventually affect the laying performance of the hens. Egg-laying chickens are harvested after the hens are opened.
The quality of chicken equipment is poor and does not match. The equipment for rearing chicks, broilers and laying hens has specifications and ratio requirements. The equipment should be matched to each other so that it is conducive to the normal growth and development of the chickens and a reasonable turnaround. The utilization rate and the operating rate of the equipment are fully utilized so that the depreciation charges allocated to each hen or per kilogram of eggs become more reasonable, and thus reduce manufacturing cost.
