The summer is gradually over, and it begins to fall into the autumn. If the management is not good after the autumn, the adult hens will start to reduce production and moulting. The new hens in the summer brooding will open the eggs one after another, but the autumn climate is changeable and the temperature difference between day and night is large. It is also a season where chickens are prone to problems. According to the climate change in autumn and the condition of chickens in battery cage for layers, feeding management should be strengthened to promote breeding benefits.
1. Strengthen environmental control to ensure that the microclimate in the house is relatively stable
The temperature difference between day and night in autumn is large, pay attention to the relationship between heat preservation and ventilation, and ensure that the small gas in the chicken house is relatively stable. Especially in the early autumn, the weather is still sultry, and the rain is more, the chicken house is damp, so it is necessary to strengthen ventilation. Open doors and windows during the day, increase ventilation, and properly ventilate at night. Under the condition of ensuring the temperature of the house, keep ventilation and ventilation to avoid respiratory diseases caused by temperature stress and poor ventilation.
2. Adjust the flock and do a good job of overfeeding
In the autumn, the old chicken starts to change the feathers, and the new chicken is started. It is the season to adjust the chickens. The chickens should be adjusted in a planned way. The chickens in the flock, the chickens, the weak chickens, the chickens, and the chickens with no therapeutic value will be eliminated in time to reduce feed waste and improve the economic benefits of raising chickens. It can be observed and identified from the mental condition, the redness of the cockscomb, the size of the pubic sputum, and the pigmentation of the legs. In the autumn, the weather is cool, the appetite of the chickens is gradually improving, and the feed intake is increasing day by day. It is the time for the chickens to recover their strength and recharge their batteries. In order to make the chickens have sufficient physical strength, they can maintain high yields for a long time. The status of the group is doing a good job of overfeeding. The feed with high nutrient levels in summer is still used for 2~3 weeks, and the nutrient level is gradually adjusted after the chicken population is restored
3. Reasonable scientific fill light
Most of the farmers are semi-open windowed houses, using natural light, and the new hens that are brooding in spring need light to stimulate the development of the reproductive system. If it is not suitable, the light will lead to maturity rather than sexual maturity. , postpone the laying of eggs.
4. Delay the age of old hens
Under natural conditions, due to the stress factors such as low temperature and shortened illumination time, there may be a phenomenon of moulting in individual chickens in chicken poultry farming cage equipment, especially for chickens with older ages, which tend to have a lower rate of egg production. Under the stimulation of low temperature and other factors, there will be more chickens that have stopped cooking and moulting, which will accelerate the decline of egg production rate. Therefore, in the fall, it should be noted that appropriate ventilation and insulation measures should be taken as the weather changes. Make sure the flock’s lighting time is more than 16 hours. Create a good living environment for the flock. Slow down the time to stop production and change feathers for large-aged chickens. Maximize your egg production performance.
