how to feed layer chicken ?

Laying hens are mainly used for the production of eggs, so we need to choose high-yielding, large-laying, fast-growing, early-mature laying hen breeds. There is a certain difference between the breeding of laying hens and the management of broilers, so how to manage breeding hens? Let's take a look at the introduction of management technology for laying hens.

1. Brood management

We need to sterilize the purchased chicks and put them into the farm. Before the farms are farmed, we need to carry out comprehensive disinfection management. The second is to improve the hygiene of the farm and keep the breeding environment clean and tidy. We must provide sufficient drinking water every day, at this time drinking water is mainly brown sugar water or glucose water. Carry out preliminary grouping according to the strength of the chicks, which can be scientifically fed and improve the survival rate of brooders. There are also laying hens in the brooding stage, which have strict requirements on temperature, humidity, and light. During this period, the temperature in the breeding room is preferably controlled between 30 and 35 degrees, and then the temperature decreases every other week. Two degrees. The humidity of the farm is controlled at about 70% in the early brooding period, and is reduced to between 55 and 65% in the later stage. Finally, according to the age of the chicks, the duration of light is reasonably controlled. The duration of light for one to three days is 23:00, and the length for four days to half a month is 18, and then slowly returns to normal.

2. Incubation management

The hygienic management work in the incubation period should be carried out normally, which is a daily management work that is necessary in each growth stage. Waiting for the chicks to grow from seven weeks to twenty weeks is the breeding period, we must first do a good job of transferring groups, we must select the sick, weak and residual chickens, and then transfer groups, and at the same time in the process of transferring groups To avoid stress reactions. The second is to control the body weight of laying hens, limit the intake of laying hens, and reduce the accumulation of fat, so as to improve the quality of laying hens. Also, pay attention to the density management and light control of the breeding, and the laying time of the laying hens should not exceed 16 hours at most. The last step is to strictly follow the immunization process to prevent the occurrence of chicken plague or other diseases and insect pests.

3. Egg production management

The first thing to do in the laying period of laying hens is to grasp the time of refueling, timely refueling and supplement nutrition. The second is to reasonably control the length of light and light intensity, usually 16 hours, the intensity is twice as strong as the growing period, which can play a role in stimulating production. The last is its management during the laying period. We are generally divided into three stages, namely the first stage, the peak period, and the later stage of laying. At the initial stage, pay attention to refueling and add water in time to avoid stress reactions. At the same time, you need to use a medicine to prevent salpingitis. In the peak egg laying period, all we have to do is extend the egg production period and increase the egg production rate. This is to ensure that the feed supply is stable, and there can be no material outages, water outages, power outages, and all aspects of breeding conditions. Be balanced. The late stage of egg production is also called the final production period. We need to change the material again, reduce the grade of feed, pay attention to calcium supplementation, and it is best to prevent the epidemic.
