High temperature in summer, raising chickens also need to be properly adjusted to its feeding and management, otherwise not only the chickens grow slowly but also easy to get sick.
In order to avoid breeding in place induced chicken disease, harm the healthy growth of chicken flocks and that, it is recommended that chicken farmers do these aspects. Water is the source of life, especially in hot weather, water is more important.
But every time the heat comes, there are farmers due to lack of water and dead chickens. In addition to the common problems of water shortage, leakage, water clogging and so on, another important reason is that because of the hot weather, individual chickens occupy the drinking place, other chickens can not drink water, and cause the death of water shortage.
Therefore, the more high-temperature weather, the more often farmers should go to the house to observe and solve problems in a timely manner. Second, effective ventilation most chicken farmers in the chicken house installed electric fan directly to the chicken body blow, in fact, this practice is not much cooling effect.
Because the chicken itself has no sweat glands, just the wind, no sweat evaporation is not away with heat. Some farmers although know from outside to inside air, or to outside ventilation to make air convection, but do not understand which fan should be blown inward, which fan should be blown outward, the result is not good.
In fact, as long as the house to the wind blower installed in the bottom, the top outward exhaust on it, so that not only can form an effective convection, but also take away part of the chicken heat, there will be a good cooling effect.
Proper exercise“Life depends on exercise”, this sentence is not advocated for chicken farmers, especially broilers. But in muggy summer weather, especially before the arrival of heavy rain or late summer high temperature and humidity period, the pressure is particularly low. If individual chickens squatted on one side for a long period of time, it is likely to cause anoxic death, such a situation generally occurs in the afternoon or evening. Therefore, often to the henhouse observation, so that the flock movement, you can reduce the death, reduce losses.
Fourth, water cooling should first understand the principle of water cooling, water cooling is the use of liquid water in the air evaporation, using evaporation to cool the heat, so water should be considered in this regard. To make use of water evaporation, it is necessary to make water fog, so that both increased the surface area of water, and will not make large water droplets fall on the chicken, causing stress, or the formation of“Soaked chicken.”.
Choose hot, dry, windy weather to spray water at the right time. This is also conducive to water evaporation, and can not be in the high temperature and high humidity of the“Sauna Day”, so only increase humidity, moisture saturation in the air, no evaporation, no cooling effect, there will be the opposite effect.
