In the process of raising chickens, the humidity of the chicken house is also an important point for raising chicks, which may be ignored by many farmers. I hope that the farmers can read this article to control the humidity of the chicken house, improve the growth rate of the chickens and ensure the health of the chickens.
The humidity in the brood house is generally expressed by relative humidity, the higher the relative humidity, the more humid the air; The lower the relative humidity, the drier the air. Chick after the shell into the brooder, if the humidity of the air is too low, the moisture inside the chick will be largely distributed through breathing, which is not conducive to the absorption of the remaining yolk inside the chick, chick feather growth will also be blocked. Once a chick is given a drink, it often suffers from dysentery because of too much water.
Suitable humidity requirements: before the age of 10 days, it is 60%-65%, and later it is reduced to 55%-60%. Early stage of raising young, because mat makings is dry, inside give up often show high temperature low wet, make chicken body loses water increase easily, inappetive, drinking water is frequent, nap is dry hair brittle, toe is dry. In addition, too much dryness can also cause dust to rise, leading to respiratory and digestive diseases. Therefore, this stage must pay attention to the shed water supplement. Water can be sprayed on the passageway or wall of the house to humidify, or a water basin or kettle can be placed on the stove to boil water to generate steam, so as to improve the humidity of the house.
After the age of 10 days, the chicks develop quickly, weight increases, feed intake, water intake, respiration and excretion increase day by day, and the temperature inside the house decreases gradually, especially in the midsummer and plum rain season, it is easy to have too much humidity. Chicken is very inadaptable to the humid environment, when the low temperature high humidity in the brooder, will aggravate the adverse effect of low temperature on the chicken, the chicken will feel colder, even cold shivering, at this time prone to various respiratory diseases; When the high temperature inside raise cheachybois is high wet, the moisture of cheachybois body evaporates and body heat send out obstruct, feel more sultry and unwell, young chicken suffers from coccidiosis easily, aspergillus disease to wait. Therefore, the chicken cage chicken this period should pay attention to change pad material, strengthen ventilation, add water to prevent overflow to the ground or pad material.
