In summer, how to raise laying hens, how to spend the winter in the winter of laying hens in the nor

In the cold winter, how to make laying hens maintain high yields in winter, reduce disease, and reduce death, has become a concern for chicken farmers. Through practice, the author believes that the following points should be noted:

Prevent cold waves from clogging gaps in walls, repair broken windows, and replace broken roof tiles. Carefully check whether the heating equipment such as electric heating plates and coal stoves are in good condition and effective, and replace the leaking coal grate exhaust pipes and aging wires. Increase flock density and raise the temperature of the house at the right time.

Do a good job of keeping the chicken house warm and cold, and prevent the sharp cooling from leading to a decrease in egg production and an increase in mortality in the flock.

Stress alleviation pays attention to daily management, and the daily operation schedule of lighting on/off, feeding, drinking, egg picking, and manure removal is carried out on time; The feed composition remains stable, the feed is changed gradually, and a 7-day 10-day transition period is established; Electrolytic multi-vitamin, astragalus polysaccharides or other anti-stress drugs should be added to drinking water or feed to reduce stress.

Adjust nutrition to appropriately improve the level of energy, crude protein, vitamins and minerals in the full-price feed, enhance the nutrition of chickens, and add vegetable oil, fat powder, high-quality soybean meal, fish meal, etc.

Strong management pays attention to the weather forecast, and a few days before and after the cold wave, try to avoid group transfer, beak cutting, immunization and other work; At noon when the weather is fine, pay attention to open windows for ventilation, appropriately accelerate air convection, and reduce the occurrence of respiratory diseases; Remove manure once a day to reduce ammonia concentration.

Focus on epidemic prevention to do a good job in the prevention of branching, Escherichia coli, mycoplasma, chicken Newcastle disease, avian influenza, monitor the antibody level of chicken Newcastle disease and avian influenza on time, and vaccinate in a timely and sufficient amount according to the monitoring results and established immunization procedures, so as to enhance the immunity of chickens and build an effective immune barrier. Regularly disinfect the chicken coop and the surrounding environment, once every 3 days and 5 days, and use 2 kinds of 3 kinds of disinfectants alternately to improve the disinfection effect, reduce dust and dust, and cut off the transmission route of pathogens.

It is recommended to go to some agricultural ** to study, such as "China Organic Agriculture Network".

The chicken coop can be heated with a fire wall, and the windows are sealed with a fabric and the skylight is left for ventilation.

Chicken coops need to be equipped with a special heating boiler, it is recommended to choose a water heating stove, coal saving, small temperature difference, not dry, automatic temperature control, very worry-free, add coal twice a day.

Breeding laying hens in the north for the winter, pay attention to the following issues:

1. The temperature in the north is low in winter, and thermal insulation is the key issue, and the temperature in the laying hen house cannot be lower than 10 °C. There are ways to do this:

1) Appropriately increase the breeding density.

2) Pay attention to the insulation of the house, install insulation boards or smear a layer of mud on the outer walls, and close the doors, windows and vents;

3) When the weather is too cold, add heating equipment to the chicken coop, such as heaters, stoves, heaters, etc.;

4) Keep the ground dry and hygienic, and reduce the number of spray disinfection;

5) Set up a windward stall at the door to prevent cold wind from blowing into the chicken coop when entering and exiting.

2. Strengthen feeding management, while doing a good job in feeding, hygiene, epidemic prevention, disinfection, deworming and other routine work, the idea of ventilation and ventilation to ensure that the air in the chicken house is fresh, and ventilation should be carried out at noon when the temperature is high, so as to avoid cold wind blowing into the chicken house to cause the laying hen cold.

3. According to the actual situation, the feed formula can be adjusted to increase the percentage of energy appropriately.

Laying hens generally start laying eggs at around 140 days of age. Laying hens lay the most eggs in the first year and then produce about 20% less eggs per year, but they eat a lot of feed. Native chickens raised in rural areas lay fewer eggs and have smaller eggs.

A chicken can only lay 4-5 kg of eggs a year. What should a layer pay attention to after laying eggs? Build a chicken coop, breed a few, dozens of chicken farmers, generally build a chicken coop can often choose to the south side of the north house, the top of the chicken coop is inclined to the south, the chicken coop is long from east to west, short from north to south, and 10-12 chickens can be raised in a place of about 1 meter.

Farmers who build simple chicken coops and breed dozens of chickens or hundreds of chickens do not manage to renovate old houses or build new chicken coops, and the chicken coops must be cleaned every day, usually sprinkled with some dry sand, and sprinkled with some bedding in winter. 1 square meter of the rearing floor 5. Chickens raised to 140 days old, hens can begin to lay eggs, before the chickens begin to lay eggs, to prepare the nest for laying eggs, no eggs for the chicken, take out the nest, so that some chickens have been used to laying eggs on the ground, do not love the nest, dirty eggs, broken eggs will increase.

When the chickens start to lay eggs, they should often enter the coop and check quietly. The little hen that lays eggs for the first time has a restless expression, jumping up and down, probing the brain, is looking for a nest, seeing such chickens and chickens that are laying eggs on the ground, they must be caught and put into the nest, let it lay eggs in the nest, and the chicken nest will often lay eggs.

In order to increase the egg production rate in autumn and winter, it is better to carry out artificial lighting if possible. If there are less than 11 hours of sunshine per day, artificial lighting can be used in the coop. 4:00 a.m

30Turn on the lights, turn them off at dawn, and turn them on when it's almost dark. Turn off the lights at 8:30 p.m.

Chicken breeding should pay attention to science, do not be careless, chicken breeding is good or bad, related to the health of chickens and the number of eggs laid.

Free-range chickens can find some wild feed to eat before winter, especially some local chickens that do not have too many eggs but look for strong food, generally as long as they are fed some corn and sorghum in the morning and evening. The content of protein and calcium in the feed of laying hens should be high, and the chickens in the early stage of egg production generally lay more eggs, so we must pay attention to the feed and feed more. In the later stage of egg laying, when the egg is bigger, the eggshell will be thinner, the protein content can be less, and the calcium cannot be lacking.

The management level of laying hens is high, in order to lay more eggs, in addition to choosing good chickens, but also to take good care of the chickens, to give them a good living environment.

In the winter when raising laying hens, we must choose some high-quality feed to feed, usually pay more attention to the dynamics of chickens, to expand the range of activities of chickens, you can choose to use some melting grass to build a nest, maintain a warm environment, need to pay attention to the reasonable treatment of some pathogenesis, so as not to be infected with the plague.

Attention should be paid to keeping the chickens warm, a layer of straw mats can be spread on the ground of the chicken nest, and scientific feeding should be carried out, and the chickens should be vaccinated at regular intervals, and the density of breeding should not be too large, and attention should be paid to disinfection and sterilization.

When raising laying hens in winter, you must pay attention to the temperature of the chicken coop, generally speaking, to keep the temperature above 15 degrees. You can light up the coop at night.
