In the past few years, there have been more and more farms using fully automatic poultry farming equipment. Many large chicken farms have begun to use broiler cages to breed broilers. The use of broiler cages to raise chickens can reduce the labor intensity of farmers, and can also increase economic benefits, allowing farmers to see the advantages of automation. However, the automatic broiler cage culture does not mean that the farmers do not care about anything, scientific and reasonable feeding management, and the cooperation of automatic equipment can produce high-efficiency broilers. Here are a few of the management points for using chickens in fully automatic broiler chicken cages.

1. Disinfection: Before broiler breeding, the most important thing is that the farmer should disinfect the house and equipment. It is best to disinfect it five days before entering the site to avoid corrosive disinfectant such as caustic soda to prevent equipment damage. When disinfecting, close the doors and windows, and then open the window after 24 hours. After the chickens enter the house, pay attention to the hygiene of the house.

2. Temperature: The use of fully automatic broiler cage culture, the temperature of each layer of chickens in the multi-layer culture is different. The first time the broiler enters the chicken house, the temperature is controlled at 33-34 °C. But also pay attention to the status of the flock, if there is discomfort, it should be adjusted in time. In the first week, the temperature drops to 30 °C. After the weekly drop of 2 ° C, the multi-layer culture density is large, 1 ~ 2 ° C lower than the flat temperature, should avoid causing heat stress and lead to decreased feed intake.

3. Ventilation: Ventilation in the house is very important, which can affect the success or failure of the culture. Reasonable ventilation can discharge the harmful gases from the house. Especially the density of multi-layer farming is so important that ventilation is more important. Hours can be ventilated. As the age of the chicken increases, the ventilation should be adjusted in a timely manner. The chicken house is required to have no odor and no glare, create a good growth space for the chickens, enhance the body’s disease resistance, and reduce the occurrence of diseases.

4. Equipment use: The chicken farm has advanced automated poultry farm equipment and can not breed chickens. The key lies in the organic combination of any equipment. The farmers should be skilled in operating the equipment, carefully study the equipment operation methods, and the chickens in each. Stage feeding management procedures, and the ability to detect and repair equipment failures in a timely manner, once the equipment is used improperly or equipment failure, it will cause huge economic losses.

5. Illumination: When farmers use fully automatic broiler cages to raise chickens for illumination, artificial lighting is used to control the time of illumination. Generally, 24 hours of light is used in the first seven days before the broiler enters the house, and the farmers can gradually reduce it to 22 hours. The purpose is to breed the chickens to get used to the dark environment, and not to cause stress reaction in the flocks due to power outages. At the same time, the farmers should pay attention to gradually increase the illumination time to 24 hours before the flocks are released.

The above five points are the management points of using broiler cages to breed broilers. I hope to bring some help to the farmers. It is necessary to purchase a lot of equipment to use chickens in fully automatic broiler cages.
