Farmers who raise layer hens in poultry chicken cages all want to allow chickens to lay more eggs, but some of them have low egg production rates due to some reasons. Today we will discuss the reasons.

First of all, there are two reasons for the lack of egg production rate: feed and management. Farmers need to check whether the feed formula is nutritionally balanced, and check whether the temperature and humidity of the poultry house are in line with the growth conditions of laying hens.

Farmers also need to reflect on the rapid change of feed after the peak egg production period. This will cause the chicken to have a greater stress response and affect the chicken's feed intake. As a result, the nutrients obtained by the chickens are reduced and the egg production rate is reduced.

The other reason is that the noisy environment of the chicken house causes the flock to be agitated. For example, loud noises can easily frighten chickens. Or suddenly change the breeding environment, etc. In response to the above problems, farmers should strengthen the management of the chicken house breeding environment and solve the problems in time.

Farmers need to consider whether the chicken house has sufficient light. Because light has a greater impact on stimulating the physiological functions of the gonads and laying eggs. Some chicken farmers only use natural light instead of lighting, so that the light is below 16 hours. Some have supplemented the light, but the light bulb is too small or the degree is too small. Although there are 15W light bulbs, they are not cleaned in time and are covered by dust, etc. And the light is not enough, which adversely affects the egg production rate.

The above is the summary of the reasons why laying hens lay fewer eggs. I hope that all farmers who raise layer hens can use the battery cages for layer hens to summarize the above experience to better raise chickens.

The inside and outside of the layer cages should be clean and tidy. Ensure that all sliding surfaces, lead screws, racks, gear boxes, oil holes, etc. are free from oil, oil and air leakage at all parts, and chips, debris, and dirt around the equipment Clean up; tools, accessories, workpieces (products) should be placed neatly, pipes and lines should be organized; good lubrication, add oil or change oil on time, keep oiling, no dry friction, oil pressure is normal, oil mark is bright, oil path is unobstructed, oily The quality meets the requirements, the grease gun, the grease cup, and the linoleum are clean; follow the safe operation regulations, do not overload the equipment, and the equipment safety protection device is complete and reliable, and the unsafe factors are eliminated in time.

The daily maintenance of layer battery cages is the basic work of equipment maintenance and must be institutionalized and standardized. For the regular maintenance of equipment, work quotas and material consumption quotas should be established and assessed according to the quotas. The regular maintenance of equipment should be included in the assessment content of the workshop contract responsibility system. Periodic inspection of equipment is a planned preventive inspection. In addition to human senses, there must be certain inspection tools and instruments, which are carried out according to the periodic inspection card. Regular inspections are also called periodic inspections. The accuracy of the mechanical equipment should also be checked to determine the degree of actual accuracy of the equipment.

The maintenance of the poultry battery hen cages should be carried out in accordance with the maintenance procedures. Equipment maintenance procedures are requirements and regulations for the daily maintenance of equipment. Adhering to the equipment maintenance procedures can extend the service life of the equipment and ensure a safe and comfortable working environment. Its main content should include:

1. The equipment should be neat, clean, firm, lubricated, anti-corrosive, safe, etc. The operation content, operation method, tools and materials used, reached standards and precautions;
2. The parts, methods and standards for daily inspection, maintenance and regular inspection;
3. Check and evaluate the content and methods of the degree of equipment maintenance by the operators.

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.

Until now, the chicken industry is still deeply loved by farmers. There are more and more farmers using modern equipment to raise chickens, so let's take a look at its characteristics.

• Reduce manpower and reduce breeding costs. Use automatic layer cages to raise chickens. All equipment can work automatically. In this way, the farmers can save labor costs. The use of mechanized equipment increases labor productivity and reduces labor costs.

• The automatic egg collection system can collect eggs efficiently. Its use will not only reduce the breakage rate of eggs, but also reduce labor costs.

• It is easy to manage and reduce the risk of breeding. The use of automatic chicken farming equipment can ensure the environment of the chicken house. For example: automatic manure removal system regularly cleans manure. The chicken manure is cleaned out in time to provide a good environment for the growth of chickens.

• Conducive to disease prevention work. The use of modern equipment for breeding reduces the mobile contact of staff in the chicken coop, which is conducive to the prevention and control of chicken diseases.
