How to avoid poultry laying hens from pecking eggs?
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?
- 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.
- 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.
Is the cost of raising chickens in layer cages high?
Now caged laying hens have become the first choice for farmers. But for many novice farmers who raise chickens peacefully, they have this question. Is it that the cost of raising chickens with automated chicken farming equipment is high?
The answer is that the cost of breeding will be high. The following will introduce why high-cost farmers are still willing to use it.
First of all, the chicken cage equipment adopts a multi-layer cage method. The chicken coop has three, four or more layers. Therefore, farmers using chicken cages can raise three, four times or even more laying hens. Cage raising increases the utilization of chicken house area. As the number of chicken houses increases, so does the income of farmers.
Multi-layer chicken cages raise chickens. The area above the chicken coop is also effectively used. And the feces produced by the chickens in the cage can fall on the ground or on the conveyor belt. The flocks will not come into contact with feces. This reduces the number of fecal infections. This allows the chickens to lay eggs earlier.
Laying hens are raised in chicken cages. Laying broilers live in chicken coops for a long time. The stocking density is relatively large, so there is very little space for chicken activities. If the activity of broilers is less, the energy consumption will be reduced, and the feed required will be reduced. Cage can effectively save more than 20% of feed cost.
Farmers use chicken farming equipment to raise chickens. It is very convenient to drink and feed. Farmers can save a lot of space to manage the flock and deal with other things. Improve the labor efficiency of farmers.
The quality of the chicken coop is good. Chicken farming equipment can be used for more than ten years. Farmers choose the hot-dip galvanizing process when buying. Buy duplex, anti-aging. Numerous batches of chickens can be raised.
What are the factors affecting the efficiency of laying hens?
Under the premise of consistent species of laying hens and feed ingredients, the most important indicator affecting the efficiency of broiler breeders is the laying cycle, followed by the feed-to-egg ratio, and again the feed price, egg production rate, egg weight, and dead scouring rate.
Of course, these indicators are not completely isolated, but are interrelated. The effective way to increase the efficiency of laying hens should first be to prolong the laying cycle; second is to design a reasonable level of metabolic energy in order to reduce the ratio of feed to eggs and control feed unit price.
Strengthen feeding and management of your layer chicken cages for sale, reduce the incidence of laying hens The health of laying hens must focus on the laying period, because this period is the most important stage for laying hens to achieve a good economic benefit, and it is also a period when laying hens are susceptible to disease.
Which Factors Affect Size of Eggs in Chicken Feed?
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.
Advantages of layer battery equipment
The layer battery equipment manufacturers tells the advantages of the layer cage. Do you know any advantages of the layer cage? is that clear? It doesn't matter if it is unclear. Let's talk about the breeding advantages of layer cages.
Chicken farmers should know that chicken cages play a big role in the process of breeding. Especially the layer battery cages, it is a good protection for eggs, let's take a look at some of the advantages of laying chicken cages.
The equipment plays an important role in the breeding, especially in the laying of laying hens. The first part of the laying hen cage and the cage door show its advantages. The density of the cage and the angle of the egg are more and more manifested from these aspects. The benefits of chicken.
The benefits of the cage: the upper and lower cages are completely staggered, often seen in 2 to 3 layers. The advantage is that there is no need to set up a dung board at the bottom of the cage. For example, the manure pit may not have a clearing system. The structure is simple, and the ventilation and illumination areas of each layer are large.
1. The mesh of the egg cage is relatively smooth, which can prevent the chicken from being injured in the foot.
2. The egg cage and the bottom net are encrypted, which can effectively prevent the fatigue of the ankle and laying hens.
3. The mesh of the egg cage is galvanized, which can improve the service life of the chicken cage. Generally, it can be used for 10 or 15 years.
4. High-density feeding of egg cages is more economical, and is conducive to epidemic prevention, and can also reduce the incidence of poultry diseases.
5. The unique door reinforcement design of the egg cage can effectively prevent the chicken from wasting feed when eating. And because the cage door space is increased, it is more convenient to manage the chicken.
Learning these four points allows you to buy high-quality poultry layer cages
Poultry farmers are now developing rapidly, and poultry layer cages have also been widely recognized by poultry farmers. The use of modern chicken cages for poultry breeding requires not only scientific breeding methods, but also the ability to purchase poultry farming equipment.
First of all, the material of the cage must be judged. If farmers want to make chickens have a suitable living environment, they must first ensure the strength and toughness of the cages. The cages can be restored when they are deformed when they are held by hands. This cage is suitable for the life of the chickens and will not be caused by the cage. It is hard and causes pectoral bursitis in chickens.
Second, ask the poultry farmer what preservative method is used for the chicken cage mesh. Then observe whether the surface of the chicken coop is smooth and whether the gloss is good. Generally, the surface of the cage made by hot-dip galvanizing process is relatively smooth and will not cause scratches to the chickens, and the gloss of the cage is also good, and it looks beautiful and generous. The most important thing is that the battery layer cages processed by hot-dip galvanizing are corrosion resistant, will not rust, and have a long service life.
The third chicken cage chassis setting skills. Since laying hens will lay eggs during the breeding process, farmers should pay attention to the wire spacing of the cage and the inclined surface of the chassis when purchasing cages. In order to ensure that the eggs can roll out smoothly without cracking, it is generally The wire distance is about 1.5 cm, and the slope of the chassis is 7-8 degrees.
The most important thing is to choose a regular poultry cage manufacturer. The most important point is that when purchasing cages, farmers must go to a regular large manufacturer to purchase, because the process of production equipment of large manufacturers is strictly inspected, and the price of products directly sold by the manufacturer will be higher than the price of the equipment in the hands of the agent. Low. This not only guarantees the quality of the purchased products, but also saves a lot of purchase funds.
How to Adjust the Nutrition of Laying Chicken in Summer?
In summer, the temperature is getting higher, and the chicken's condition will be affected as the temperature rises. For poorly broiled chickens, feed intake will drop significantly, greatly affecting chicken health and egg production. How to adopt a reasonable method in the summer and adjust feed nutrition so that the health of the chicken and bring more production is a topic of concern for many farmers.
The addition of oils and fats in feeds can change the palatability of feed, prolong the stay of feed in the digestive tract, and increase the feed intake and digestion and absorption of laying hens. When adjusting the feed formulation, the protein content should not be increased but rather reduced. The content in the feed should be increased accordingly in accordance with the reduction in dietary intake.
Tell you why you choose an automated layer cage from six aspects
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.

Why Chicken immune failure
When we raise chickens in poultry farming equipment, it is common to vaccinate chickens to prevent disease, but sometimes it is still vaccinated. Why is this?
The first is that immunization is unscientific. The time of inoculation is not appropriate. Therefore, there is an inaccurate possibility of immune effect.
The second is that no antibody detection is performed. If the flock is in a special period, it is prone to immune failure without antibody testing.
The third is that the dose used for the vaccine is not accurate. It is not good for chickens to use large doses of vaccines.and is to cause adverse reactions after inoculation.
Maintenance and maintenance of automatic layer breeding equipment
If a breeding farm wants to be industrialized, large-scale breeding is inseparable from automatic layer breeding machinery and equipment. Automatic layer breeding machinery and equipment are good assistants to assist layer farmers in the breeding work. Nowadays, the chicken breeding equipment is very good. Mechanical automation can be applied for a long time. This requires farms to carry out timely maintenance and maintenance of machinery and equipment, so as to ensure that all machinery and equipment can be maintained for the long-term normal work of the farm. The working efficiency of the chicken farm is the maintenance and maintenance of the following automatic layer breeding machinery and equipment.
The key of automatic layer breeding machinery and equipment includes: automatic manure cleaning machine, automatic feeding machine, automatic egg picking machine, each of which will describe the key points of maintenance of machinery and equipment.
1. Automatic manure cleaning machine: After the farm has applied the manure cleaning machine for a period of time, the manure removal belt will increase and increase the slack. Maintenance of rolling bearings and rubber sticks. Rolling bearings should be added with unsalted butter on time. The glue sticks should be kept tight and not loose. In addition, many farms have a roll-up of manure removal opportunities. Farms will remove manure belts in passive rolling. The position of the barrel can be leveled.
2. Automatic feeder: When the feeder is in use, the farm must pay attention to the fact that no items can be placed on the feeder, otherwise it will cause the motor to withstand too much force and burn the motor. The application of the feeder Make sure that the transmission chain and gears have a certain level of lubrication, otherwise the lack of lubrication will destroy the equipment. The farm should pay attention to regular maintenance. The feeder is mainly produced by skin to transport concentrated feed, so the farm should be maintained regularly Is the transmission belt intact? Is the level of tightness moderate? The control cabinet of the feeder will have a lot of dust due to dust caused by the concentrate. In the long term, it will cause short-circuit failure of the internal power circuit. The farm should carry out the removal on time.
3. Fully automatic egg picker: When the farm uses an automatic egg picker, it is necessary to pay attention to the detailed learning and training of the appropriate operation steps of the machine equipment. If the wrong operation is very easy to cause damage to the machine and equipment, use the egg picker After that, you must pay attention to frequent disinfection and sterilization, because some chicken excrement, feather dusters and other items containing pathogens are inevitably left in the whole process of application of machinery and equipment. If you have been using a machine that carries pathogens and does not often clean up If the equipment is available, the quality of the eggs will be reduced.
