Battery Chicken Cage Poultry Farming Feeding Method Sharing

Reasonable feeding, do not change the feed suddenly. At present, most farmers use full-price compound feed. Since chickens are accustomed to the feed they eat, if they suddenly change to the new feed, it will affect the chicken’s appetite and egg production, and the egg production rate will drop.

Do not feed raw food. Some farmers are used to feeding chickens with natural grains such as corn and rice, which not only reduces the utilization rate of feed but also easily harms the chickens. The correct feeding method is to pulverize the raw grains such as corn, match other raw materials according to the formula, such as bran, bean cake, fish meal, etc., and then feed the chickens.

Adjust the feeding amount in time according to the temperature.
In winter, the proportion of high-energy feed should be increased in the feed, and the protein content should be appropriately reduced. The feeding amount is appropriately increased to reduce the impact on chicken growth and egg production.
when raising chickens in winter, you should pay more attention to the weather forecast. When the temperature drops by 3 °C, about 5 grams of feed should be added to each chicken to get enough heat. When the temperature rises, the original feed amount should be restored immediately to avoid excessive fat.
In obese laying hens, the egg production rate will decrease or stop production. To avoid this situation, you can reduce the feed before laying eggs, reduce the concentration after laying eggs, and supplement roughage for prevention. You can also add bile to the feed. Alkali was fed for 10 days to lose weight.

To prevent blood spotting eggs, vitamin K can be added to the chicken feed.
To prevent the caged laying hens from being deficient in calcium and phosphorus, resulting in rough eggshells or soft-shelled eggs, or even standing unsteady and paralyzed to death, 3% calcium powder or 5% gypsum powder can be added to the feed, and some charcoal can be added at the same time Ash or small grains of sand.
Pay attention to supplementing enough vitamin E after the start of labor to maintain the normal function of reproductive organs and prevent diseases such as rectal prolapse caused by stenosis of the fallopian tubes. In winter, there is little light and low temperature, and vitamin D should be supplemented to prevent vitamin D deficiency due to the inability of caged laying hens to receive outdoor light.
In severe winter, the chickens can be fed with 60° liquor mixed with feed, 30-40 grams of liquor per kilogram of feed, the egg production rate can be increased by about 20%, and the disease resistance of chickens can be enhanced.
