China's aquaculture industry has been continuously improving, and the farmers who breed laying hens have also greatly improved their economic benefits. In terms of farming technology, it is also constantly changing, making farmers more relaxed and efficient in the breeding process. Then the author will talk about the important points of chicken farming technology in modern poultry farming equipment.
1. Configure feed according to nutritional standards: Many farmers choose cheap feed to save on feed costs. However, the generally cheap feed does not meet the nutritional requirements of the laying hen. Although the cost of the feed is reduced, the nutrition of the hen does not meet the needs, which will affect health and production, and undoubtedly increase the cost invisibly. Therefore, farmers should choose reasonable feed ingredients according to the nutritional needs of different stages of the laying hens, and pay attention to the quality of the feed. The feed ingredients require fresh and mold-free, pay attention to the storage of the feed.
2. When feeding, it is necessary to add less diligent feeding: some farmers will feed one day's feed in one time when feeding the laying hens, but once they do, they will let the hens eat. The remaining feed is wasted. Therefore, it is necessary to add a small amount of feed several times, and each feeding should not exceed 1/3 of the trough. At the same time, it is necessary to supply sufficient clean drinking water to feed high-quality fresh green and juicy feed. In addition, farmers can add sand to the feed to facilitate digestion.
3. Scientific use of feed additives: The scientific and rational use of some additives is helpful for the production of flocks. It is recommended that farmers add 3% to 5% of the fat in the diet of the laying hens, which can increase the egg production rate by 10% to 12%. Adding 0.02% to 0.1% of vitamin C to the diet can increase the egg production rate by 4% and increase the feed utilization rate by 8% to 10%. Adding 50mg/kg of tryptophan to the diet can increase the egg production rate by 10%. In addition, the addition of bacitracin zinc, benzimycin, etc. to the diet can prevent disease and increase egg production rate.
4. Control the environment of the chicken house: Whether the temperature and humidity of the chicken house are reasonable, it is very important for laying eggs. The suitable temperature of the chicken house before the laying of the laying hen is 13 ~ 23 ° C, the humidity is 50% ~ 55%, too high or low temperature, humidity will lead to a decrease in feed utilization and egg production. The hens can use the gap light for 16 hours a day, and the light intensity is based on the chickens who can see the foraging. In addition, there is also the feeding density of laying hens. It is better to keep the laying hens more than 10/m2, but the winter feeding density can be increased by about 30%.
5. Do a good job of forced moulting: laying hens are a must-have thing, but many farmers choose to force moulting for laying hens in order to reduce the benefits of laying hens during moulting. This allows the laying hens to moultate faster and without affecting the performance of laying eggs, which is an indispensable part of modern laying hen culture.
The above six points are some of the farming techniques that the author tells the farmers about using the layer chicken battery cages for modern laying hens. It is also a way for farmers to improve their efficiency in the process of raising chickens, and hopes to help farmers.
