Ventilation precautions for raising chickens using poultry feeding equipment

Since the houses of most farmers are now closed, in the work of ventilating chickens, it is necessary to use a fan for mechanized ventilation, so that the house can reach a comfortable environment and allow the chickens to grow healthily. Then, when using a fan for raising chicken farm equipment for ventilation, what is the need for farmers to pay attention to?

1. Check the closed type of the house: If you want to use the fan to get a good ventilation effect, then you must ensure that the tightness of the house is good, that is to say, the effective ventilation of the fan is that the house must be kept tight. The farmer can carry out the airtight inspection before ventilation. If it is found that there is air leakage, it should be timely added, especially the front and rear doors of the chicken house and the place around the water curtain equipment.

2. Ensure the matching of the number of flocks and ventilation: different fan houses open the fan, the use of wind speed and ventilation are different. The fan should be calculated according to the number of chickens, so when installing the fan, the farmer also needs to choose the number of fans to be installed according to the area of the house and the number of chickens.

3. Observe the flock when ventilating: When using the fan of the chicken equipment to ventilate the chicken, the farmer should pay attention to not only seeing whether the ventilation device is set up properly and effectively, nor can it look at the display temperature on the thermostat. Farmers need to judge according to the somatosensory temperature of the flock and the performance of the flock. It is generally possible to understand the comfort level of the flock through various aspects such as feeding, drinking water and mental state.

4. The fan should match the water curtain: in the hot season, most farmers will use the fan and the water curtain to cooperate to achieve the ventilation and cooling work of the house. However, in order to obtain effective ventilation and cooling, it is necessary to pay attention to the matching of the number of water curtains and fans. In addition, farmers should also pay attention to the fact that the cold wind at the front curtain of the chicken house cannot be directly blown to the flock, otherwise it may cause cold stress reaction in the flock. The static pressure in the house must be within the standard range and should not be too large to avoid damage to the ventilation equipment.

The above four points are the precautions for the use of poultry farming equipment in the process of raising chickens for the farmers. It is hoped that it will attract the attention of farmers, and scientifically and rationally use chicken equipment for ventilation to create a comfortable environment for the chicken house.
