Layer Chicken Farms - Poultry Farming Strategies of Layers and Broilers

Studies have shown that within a certain range, the content of some trace components in eggs is significantly affected by chicken feed. The content of nutrients varies, which affects the quality and size of the eggs.

Protein and amino acid levels in feed, protein intake is the main nutritional factor that affects egg size. Adjusting the protein level of the diet can change the size of the egg. Each one increase or decrease in dietary protein levels, such as from 16% to 17% or 15%, can increase or decrease the weight of the egg by approximately 1.2 grams. In practice, it is best not to increase or decrease the protein by more than 1 percentage point each time. Amino acid nutrition is the essence of protein nutrition.

The effect of dietary energy levels on egg weight is mainly through feed intake. If the daily energy intake of layer hens is lower than the lower limit of the above values, the egg production and egg weight will be affected, and thus affect the protein's Food intake (or protein savings) allows hens to have higher protein levels for maintenance, egg production and increased egg weight.

Essential fatty acids play an important role in the factors that affect egg weight. Linoleic acid is involved in fat metabolism, so it affects the size of the egg through its effect on the yolk.

With the development of the breeding industry, automatic layer chicken cages are now essential chicken breeding equipment for farmers. What are the benefits of using chicken cages to raise chickens? Let's discuss it today.

        1.High degree of automation. Active feeding, drinking water, cleaning manure, wet curtain device. The use of this type of equipment to centrally manage the chicken coop can greatly improve the efficiency of breeding.

2.Conducive to the epidemic prevention work. Because the automatic manure removal systemmakes the chickens inaccessible to manure. This will make the chicken grow stronger. It also provides a clean and warm development space for chickens.

3.Save breeding feed. The use of stacked layer cages can greatly reduce the breeding feed. Because chickens grow in cages, their activity is reduced. The chicken's body consumes less energy, which leads to less feed waste.

4.The chicken coop is stable and durable. Hot-dip galvanizing technology is now used in automated breeding equipment. Make the equipment use longer, and it is also resistant to corrosion and oxidation. The service life can reach 15-20 years.

5.Save time. Because of the high degree of automation of modern chicken farming equipment, it is more conducive for farmers to manage the chicken coop and save time for other tasks.

Is the chicken house disinfected way right?

We all know that if we want to raise chickens, this part of disinfection plays a decisive role in breeding. It is reasonable to reduce the incidence of disinfection, which greatly reduces the cost of breeding. If the disinfection is unreasonable, it will waste money and delay the disease. Increase the incidence of flocks and reduce our economic benefits. Today we will come together to see how disinfection is the most correct.

 

1. The general situation of the chicken battery cages is to disinfect twice a week, at least once a week, and more frequently in the summer.

 

2. Two or more disinfectant products must be used alternately in the farm.

 

3. It is very important to thoroughly clean the farm before disinfection. It is very important not to dust the house, the roof spider web layer is layered, the ground is not cleaned, and disinfection is started. The disinfection effect is very poor. It is the same as no disinfection. This is also a mistake that many farmers' friends tend to ignore and easy to make. Everyone must pay attention.

 

 

4. 3 days after the vaccination vaccine, do not disinfect the chicken farm, and do not disinfect the chicken farm equipment. Otherwise it will greatly reduce the effectiveness of the vaccine.

 

5. When disinfecting with disinfectant water, whether it is summer or winter, it is not possible to spray the disinfectant directly onto the chicken. Instead, it is sprayed on the top of the hall or above the chicken cage. It can fall naturally on the chicken body and cannot be sprayed directly onto the chicken. To prevent the chickens from catching a cold.

 

6. When disinfecting in winter, try to use the Chinese medicine disinfection to fumigation, which can effectively prevent the chickens from catching a cold.

 

7. When using disinfectant for disinfection, it should be disinfected strictly according to the ratio. Do not increase the proportion of disinfection at random, so that it will not increase the disinfection effect and increase toxicity.

 

In short, the disinfection of chicken farms is very rigorous. If we can properly disinfect, it will greatly reduce the incidence of chicken farms, reduce our farming costs, and thus improve our economic efficiency.

The temperature difference between day and night in spring is large. It is necessary to pay attention to controlling the constant temperature. If the temperature is too high or too low, the weight of the broiler will be affected. The weight of the chicks should be 4 times of 7 days after entering the house. If this standard is not met, it will affect the growth and development of broilers. If the temperature exceeds 38 ° C for more than 3 hours in the first week of brooding, it will affect the growth and development of the chicks.

(1) Temperature control before chicks enter the poultry farming cages.

Be sure to fully pre-warm the brooding room, preferably more than 12 hours in advance, to keep the temperature of the air, floor and wall of the house consistent. In production practice, the temperature of brooding is not up to standard. Although the temperature in the air has reached the required level, the ground temperature is still relatively low. It is easy to appear cold on the second day after entering the chick. Although it can be adjusted, the late chicks tend to The intestinal tract is not good.

(2) Pay attention to temperature control during immunization.

Every immunization should control the temperature, preferably 2 ° C ~ 3 ° C higher than usual, due to the weak immunity of the body during immunization, it is easy to infect mycoplasma or E. coli disease, so during this period the house should be suitable temperature.

Now most farms have widely used layer battery cages to raise chickens, and automatic chicken raising equipment has become an indispensable chicken raising equipment for the majority of chicken farmers. In recent years, the market demand for laying hens has not expanded. In order to improve breeding efficiency, Raising chickens in layer cages has become a trend, so what are the advantages of raising chickens in layer cages?

 

 

  1. High level of automation: automatic feeding, drinking water, cleaning manure, wet curtain cooling, centralized management, automatic control, saving energy, reducing artificial feeding costs, greatly improving the breeding efficiency of farmers.
  2. Poultry prevention is good and effective prevention: the chicken does not touch the feces, which can make the chicken grow more vigorously and provide a clean and warm growth environment for the chicken, and the slaughter time is much earlier.
  3. Save the space and improve the stocking density: the cage density is more than 3 times higher than that of the flat stocking density.
  4. Frugal breeding feed: egg hencages can save a lot of breeding feed. Chickens are kept in cages, so the amount of exercise is reduced, the energy consumption is low, and the waste of feed is reduced. The materials indicate that cage breeding can effectively save more than 25% of breeding costs.
  5. Consolidation and durability: The complete set of caged chicken equipment uses hot-dip galvanizing technology, which is corrosion-resistant and aging-resistant, and its service life can be as long as 15-20 years.

       6.Time saving: It is convenient for breeding users to manage chickens and save more time to deal with other things.

In the process of raising chickens in automated layer cages, the comprehensiveness of feed nutrients is the basis for improving the high yield of layer hens. Sometimes the egg shell becomes thin and easy to break, and the color varies from light to dark. It means that the laying hens are lacking in calcium.

 

The first layer lacks calcium content in the feed. Farmers should know that calcium is an essential nutrient substance for laying hens to grow and lay eggs. It should be adjusted according to the growth of the laying hens and the laying situation. Therefore, farmers should pay attention to calcium supplementation for laying hens.

 

 

The nutrients of calcium and phosphorus in the feed are not balanced. Farmers should pay attention to whether the nutrients in the breeding are balanced. Too much phosphorus will affect the absorption of calcium. Calcium and phosphorus affect the strength of the eggshell.

 

Long-term cage breeding and lack of light: Most farmers now use the method of raising chickens in layer cages to raise layer hens. Most of the chicken houses are closed, so the layer chickens cannot get effective light. Farmers need to purchase lighting equipment for artificial lighting. But if the farmers do not perform the proper order, it will affect the absorption of calcium in the laying hens. At the same time, when the supplemented concentrate calcium is less, there will be a lack of calcium.

 

The above are the several reasons why layer cage manufacturers have summarized the calcium deficiency of layers for farmers. I hope that the above description can bring some help to farmers.

1. Medium-scale chicken farms will become mainstream

At present, the long-term "small-scale and large-group" breeding in the layer industry has made disease control in areas with dense layer production become the biggest factor affecting the development of the industry. In the next 5-10 years, chicken farms with a stock of 50,000 to 500,000 layers will become the main source of eggs in the future, and chicken farms with a stock of less than 10,000 will gradually withdraw from the layer breeding industry.

2. Intelligent breeding

With the development of the poultry breeding equipment manufacturing industry and the integration of breeding equipment from countries around the world in the past two years, competition in the breeding equipment industry has become increasingly fierce. The relative investment of breeding equipment in the entire breeding process is constantly decreasing, which has made automated chicken coops popular all over the world. Coupled with the continuous increase in labor costs and management costs, farmers are actively developing in the direction of appropriate scale, standardization, automation, and intelligent breeding. "Man manages machines and machines raise chickens" will become more and more common, and intelligence will inevitably become the industry's choice in the future.

3. Industrial integration

With the scale and modern development of the layer industry, the integrated operation model has gradually been accepted by the majority of chicken farmers. The formation of a completed industrial chain will be very benign to the development of the entire industry. There are specializations in the technical industry, and professional people do professional things. The operation model from breeding-breeding chickens-feed-equipment-animal protection services-brand eggs-egg processing-out of the chicken industrial park is a good model for building a complete industrial chain.

Therefore, it can be seen that the use of automated poultry farming equipment to raise chickens is the general trend.

It is believed that even poultry farms with good egg production conditions will have poultry pecking eggs. This can happen if the laying hens develop a bad habit of eating their own eggs.

Laying hens pecking eggs may be accidental. But once it becomes a habit and other hens learn, the amount of eggs collected will drop a lot. How can we prevent this? Or if eating eggs has become a problem, how can we solve it?

 

 

Poultry battery layer cages can prevent laying hens from pecking eggs. Why do you say this way?
  1. The poultry feeding system in the layer battery cage system ensures that your chickens get an adequate and balanced diet. The device distributes the feed evenly in the trough, and the amount of feed can be adjusted. In order to avoid waste of feed, there are feeding devices at both ends of the trough, which can feed back the feed. Feed trough. We recommend that you add protein and calcium materials to its feed so that every chicken will be full.
  2. The internal space of the battery chicken cages is sufficient. The poultry layer should not directly touch their eggs. The egg rolls smoothly onto the egg belt. The egg belt transports the eggs to the front of the cage. Then the eggs are transferred to a vertical egg elevator. The egg guides in the front of each floor guide the eggs to different positions of the elevator without collision. In this way, the chicken cannot touch the egg, and the possibility of pecking the egg will not happen again.

The above is the way to prevent laying hens from pecking eggs shared by poultry equipment manufacturers with many years of experience. I hope that it will be helpful to you.
