It is worth noting that in the case of low wind speed in the house, it is forbidden to spray and cool down. At this time, the spray is not conducive to the body heat dissipation of the chicken.
3. Install the wet curtain by longitudinal ventilation to ensure the safety of the chickens in summer.
4. Let the chicken drink cold water, and the lower temperature drinking water can reduce the heat stress of the chicken.
5. Change the feeding time and increase the feeding frequency to increase the feed intake of the chicken.
