How to keep a chicken farm warm

1. Increase the temperature of the chicken house: The lights of the chicken farm are always on, which has a certain thermal insulation effect. Since the fluff of the chicks is relatively short and sparse when they are first born, the heat preservation effect is not strong, so the lights on the chicken farm stay on all night, so that the chicks will not freeze to death because the temperature is too low at night.

2. Accelerate growth: If the lights of the chicken farm are always on, the chicken will mistakenly think that it is daytime, so that it will keep eating, which can promote the speed of its development, and the fattening effect in a short time is very good.

3. Improve the egg production rate: It has been scientifically proved that the egg production rate of chickens has a great relationship with the light. Generally, the longer the light time, the more eggs the chickens will lay, and the eggs will be larger.

4. It is convenient for the feeder to manage: keep the lights on at night, which is beneficial for the breeder to feed the chickens and facilitates manual management.

2. Is it okay to keep the light on the chick?
It is not okay to keep the light on the chick all the time. When the chick is just born, because its fluff is very short and sparse, the heat preservation effect is not strong, and it needs to be kept under the light all the time, so that they will not freeze to death when the night is very cold. But after the chicken grows up, its own feathers are denser and longer, and the heat preservation effect is very strong, so there is no need to keep the light on all the time. However, if you want to improve the egg production rate of laying hens and the meat quality of broilers, you can also keep the lights on, because then they will keep eating, which can speed up the growth and development.
