In the process of breeding laying hens using poultry farming equipment, all aspects of feeding management will directly affect the laying rate of laying hens. As we all know, water is the source of life, and it is very important to drink water in the growth and production of laying hens. Especially in the laying period of laying hens, whether the drinking water is reasonable will directly affect the laying rate of laying hens. Then, how should the farmer drink water for the laying hen during the laying period? The author came to tell the farmers about several techniques for drinking water from laying hens.
1. Observe the drinking water law and change the drinking water temperature according to the season: in the process of breeding, the farmers should be good at discovering and being good at summing up. From the daily observation, we can know that the hens and chickens have three peaks of drinking water every day, that is, 8:00 am, 12 noon, and 6:00 pm. Therefore, in these three stages, farmers must ensure that the laying hens have sufficient drinking water. If laying hens do not drink water or drink enough water during these three periods, they can quickly affect their laying and health. Like the cold weather in winter and low temperatures, farmers can drink warm water for laying hens, reduce body heat loss, and enhance cold resistance, which is beneficial to chicken health and egg production. In summer, the weather is hot, and farmers can drink cold water for laying hens, which can speed up the free-range of the hens and increase the feed intake of the hens.
2. Pay attention to changing the drinking water of laying hens: the amount of drinking water required for the growth and production of laying hens in different seasons is different. Under normal circumstances, the daily water requirement of each chicken is about 110 ml in winter and about 280 ml in summer, in spring and autumn. About 200 ml, but when the egg production rate increases, the water demand also increases. Because of this, the eggs are strong and the metabolism is strengthened. Not only does the egg need to form water, but the chicken has a large amount of food and requires more water.
3. Water supply law: Pay special attention to the water supply work during the peak period of chicken laying, otherwise it will directly affect its egg production and health. In particular, the above-mentioned three peak time points of laying hens should not be short of water.
The above is the “three tips” for the farmers to use the layer chicken battery cages equipment to raise the laying hens and the scientific supply of laying hens during laying. The “three skills” in the article is the key knowledge of laying hen culture technology. The laying hens must ensure the adequate health of the hens when they are managing the laying hens, thus improving the laying rate and laying quality of the laying hens, so as to increase the eggs. The realization of chicken production benefits.
