For farmers who raise layer hens, the quality and quantity of eggs are the key to the economic benefits of the farmers. Therefore, in addition to the number of eggs, the farmers should also pay attention to the quality of the eggs. Even if the number of eggs is large, the high rate of egg breakage will also affect the efficiency. So how to prevent the breakage of eggs during the breeding process and enhance the quality of eggs? Layer cage manufacturers will come to tell the farmers.
1. Nowadays, most of laying hens are raised in layer cages, so farmers should pay attention when choosing layer cage equipment. The size of layer cages should be determined according to the number and breed of layer hens raised. The distance between the iron bars at the bottom of the layer cage is generally recommended to be 2.5 cm x 5 cm. When designing the angle of the bottom of the cage, it should be appropriate. A small angle cannot roll out the egg in time, and a large angle will easily make the egg fall to the ground. The impact force of bad or rolling eggs is large and break each other, the general cage bottom slope should be maintained at 7-8 degrees.
2. Whether the feed formula fed by the farmers is scientific and reasonable will also affect the quality of the eggs. During the feeding process, the farmers must ensure that the feed is nutritionally balanced. The nutritional level of the feed is directly related to the strength and hardness of the eggshell. An important factor in egg rate. When formulating feed, it is necessary to prepare nutritious feed in stages, especially calcium, phosphorus, vitamin D3 and crude protein. Although most of the current feeds are called full-price feeds, caged chickens cannot obtain additional vitamins. Therefore, the chicken farm can supplement the chickens with multi-dimensional and minerals twice a week.
3. If there are too many eggs in the egg trough, they will easily collide and cause damage. Therefore, farmers should pay attention to increasing the number of eggs and improving the quality of eggs during the breeding process, in order to prevent egg-to-egg collisions and eggs. When the bottom of the cage is trampled on by a chicken, it is necessary to pick up eggs more than 3 times a day. Arrange to pick up the eggs at night before turning off the lights to reduce the time that the eggs stay in the cage and prevent the pecking chickens from pecking the eggs.
4. In order to ensure the normal laying of laying hens and the normal eggs, the farmers should do a reasonable and scientific light work during the raising process, and adjust the daily light supplement according to the seasonal changes. The total light time is 16 hours. Well, at least not less than 14 hours.
