Chicken anoxic spring brooding taboo

Spring is the golden season of broiler chickens, but it is also a sick season. Due to the low temperature and variable temperature in spring, chicks are susceptible to disease. Especially chicks within 3 months of age are more likely to get sick and die. The key is to prevent chicks from being lacking. oxygen.

Broilers are susceptible to hypoxia during brooding, so special precautions should be taken to prevent chicks from hypoxia. The hypoxic chicken began to show depression, screaming, breathing, breathing, neck throw, reluctant to eat, stop drinking water, clam hair blue, severe skin cyanosis, blue feet, and finally fell Died. to this end:

1. Expand brooding area. In winter and spring brooding, "houses in the house" should be built in the house. The construction of a "house in the house" brooding room should be based on the age of the chicks, and then appropriately expand the brooding area in order to expand the scope of incubation and the amount of oxygen.

2, choose suitable heat source. When brooding is warmed, the fuel directly burned by open fire such as firewood, coal, charcoal, and hibiscus should be avoided as much as possible. Power should be used, or heat insulation should be provided in the form of ramp insulation. As a brooding room lighting, electric lights can be used, but as a heating, it is best to keep a warm passage to prevent the lamp from being too strong and affect the rest and growth of the chicks. Insulation on the ramp can warm and dry the floor of the brooding room, reduce the humidity in the brooding room, and make it difficult for the litter and chicken excrement to ferment, thereby reducing harmful gases and oxygen consumption.

3, a reasonable solution to the contradiction between insulation and ventilation. If there are more water droplets on the top and around the brooding chamber where the plastic film is formed, the humidity in the room can be judged to be large; if the plastic film does not contain beads, the humidity is reasonably reasonable. If a person enters the brooding room and smells no odor, he feels depressed and depressed and the air is fresher and the amount of oxygen is higher. On the contrary, the air is polluted and oxygen is insufficient. When the humidity is too high or the air is too dirty, the chicken farmer should open the gap at the top of the brooding room and near the ground to achieve the purpose of ventilation. More chickens, air pollution, high humidity, high temperature gaps can be larger, longer time, and vice versa should be smaller, shorter. It must be noted that the chicks must not be affected by cold, and it is better to change the air in this way several times a day, but not to completely change the air.

4, timely replacement of litter and excrement. When removing litter and excreta, do not uncover all the barriers used to keep warm. Also, choose a sunny day and a high temperature, and quickly replace the new litter.

5, spray oxygen medicine. Peracetic acid is a broad-spectrum and highly efficient chemical disinfectant that is unstable in nature but can release oxygen and acetic acid. According to this feature, timely spraying of peracetic acid in the house can increase oxygen and disinfect the house. And some of the harmful alkaline gases.

Through the above measures, it is possible to effectively prevent the occurrence of oxygen deficiency in brooding chickens. The farmers should ensure the timely disinfection of the chicken house, and at the same time, handle the heat preservation and ventilation work so that the best quality chickens can be bred in the best brooding season.
