The current temperature is high and the humidity is high. Farmers in laying hens and chickens know that the suitable temperature environment for laying hens is between 13 °C and 27 °C, but the current temperature is as high as 35 °C. Therefore, the metabolism of the cultured egg and egg chicken will undergo a large change, which will affect the feed intake, egg production performance, egg quality, resistance and so on. Therefore, in the summer high temperature season, farmers must take measures to reduce the heat stress of chickens. The authors will introduce several measures.

1. Now the weather is hot, the water loss in the laying hens is more serious, so the farmers are more consistent in the summer to supply sufficient water. You can choose to cool the water, the cold water can absorb a part of the heat in the chicken body, so as to cool down, so you should keep fresh and cool drinking water in the sink.

2. Fresh air in the house: In the case of high temperature in the summer house, the laying hen mainly relies on breathing to help the body to dissipate heat, but many farmers have poor air in the house, the manure causes ammonia, and the humidity is high. The house appears to be damp and hot, which is very unfavorable to the laying hens. Therefore, the farmer should do the work and ventilation work of clearing the dung. If necessary, sprinkle some lime into the septic tank after daily cleaning, to reduce the influence of high humidity to ensure the house. The air is fresh and cool.

3. Adjust the feeding method: In summer, farmers can adjust the time of feeding the laying hens appropriately. You can choose to feed more in the morning and evening when you are cool, diligently feed, stimulate the appetite of the chicken, let it eat more. However, care should be taken to avoid the accumulation of wet materials in the trough to avoid mold and deterioration.

4. Appropriate extension of lighting time: When the laying hens are working in the summer, the farmers can extend the morning and evening light time appropriately. This can increase the feeding of the laying hens, but it should be noted that the lighting time should not exceed 17 hours.

5. Adjusting the nutritional level of the diet: high temperature will affect the feed intake of the laying hens, resulting in reduced feeding of the laying hens. If the reduction, the laying hens will be undernourished. The farmers should take measures to stimulate more feeding. Improve dietary nutrition levels to compensate for undernutrition.

6. Supplementing heat stress-resistant nutrients and electrolytes: The continuous high temperature in the house will cause heat stress in the laying hens. This farmer knows that high temperature will also cause sodium, potassium and carbonate ions in the chickens to be discharged. The electrolyte is unbalanced, so the farmer needs to supplement the sodium broth with sodium bicarbonate, potassium chloride and ammonium chloride in summer, and should also add zinc carbonate.

7. Use water curtain to cool down: The cooling of the chicken house is a work that farmers must pay attention to in summer. Most of the farmers are now closed chicken houses, so when cooling, they will choose water curtain equipment for cooling and mechanization to cool down. The temperature of the house can be well controlled and is very popular among farmers.

The above seven measures are some of the measures that writer told the farmers to raise the chickens in the layer chicken cages during the summer, so that the above-mentioned descriptions can bring some help to the farmers. Laying hens can also produce performance as often in summer.
