Precautions for raising chicken in spring

The weather in spring is easy to change. The temperature difference between the climates makes the chickens frequently sick. We should do a good job in epidemic prevention to increase the resistance and prevent diseases.

Or to keep warm without ventilation or to reduce the number of ventilation, which will cause the chicken's ammonia to exceed the standard causing respiratory disease in chickens.

2, if the sanitation environment is not good, the chicken manure is not cleaned up or the environment and feeding equipment are not often disinfected, then the chicken's resistance will decline, and the disease will be infected.

Responses:

2, to maintain ventilation, insulation should also pay attention to more ventilation to improve the air quality of the chicken house to avoid the concern of the chicken house insulation and neglect the ventilation of breathable chickens for a long time inhaled carbon dioxide and other harmful gases.

3, spring is the season with the most disease, so it is necessary to do a good job of disinfection in time to prevent the occurrence of disease.

4, remember to add more feed to the chicken nutrition, spring needs more nutrients to enhance the resistance of the chicken, different chickens need different nutrients.
