How to improve the egg production rate of chickens in summer?
In summer, the weather is hot and the temperature of the chicken house is high. The tolerance temperature of the chickens is 15-25 degrees Celsius. After 25 degrees Celsius, the eggshell will become thinner and the feed intake will decrease. The increase in drinking water, the diarrhea of the chickens, and the decrease in the egg production rate of the chickens, every summer is a difficult time for farmers. How to make the chickens take in sufficient nutrients for laying eggs? Here is a simple analysis for everyone:

How to make the chickens take in sufficient nutrients for laying eggs? Here is a simple analysis for everyone:
Common mistakes:
1. Add some soybean oil to chicken feed to increase feed energy
2. Add some bran to the feed
3. Inject antibiotics for diarrhea
4. If the temperature of the chicken coop cannot be lowered, spray water on the chicken head, but the effect is still not ideal
Suggested measures:
1. Energy determines the egg production rate. There is no doubt that adding soybean oil to increase feed energy has the following disadvantages: high cost, now a pound of soybean oil is 4.5 yuan, and a ton of feed plus 20 kg is 90 yuan; it hurts the intestines, oily things Existing in the intestines for a long time, it will form a layer of oil film on the top to the surface, resulting in a decrease in nutrient absorption rate and a decrease in water absorption capacity. Most of the nutrients are discharged with the feces, resulting in diarrhea; the feed is prone to mold and the chicken house is high in summer High humidity and low feed intake by chickens. If there is leftover feed in the trough, overnight feed mixed with soybean oil is prone to mold. Long-term consumption of this feed will not benefit the chickens. Remind everyone to use soybean oil with caution in summer, which has not solved the problem of insufficient feed energy, and recommends “quick supplement” high-energy products to improve soybean oil, avoiding all the adverse effects of soybean oil and reducing the cost by half.
2. It is not recommended to add bran. The bran itself is coarse feed and has no nutritional value. The feed intake of chickens is inherently low. If you add something that is not nutritious, the nutrition of the chickens cannot keep up. How to ensure adequate nutrition in summer?
Increase the nutrient concentration of the feed. If the chicken’s feed intake in summer drops by 10%, the 10% less nutrition should be added to the 90% of the feed that the chicken can eat. The chicken eats less, but the nutrition is more. , The nutrition is the same when the food is refined. Therefore, summer is not the time to reduce costs. You must find a way to add the cost of eating less to the feed. If the chickens are not nutritious enough to lay an egg every day, he cannot give the next one every day. Eggs, the nutrients in eggs also come from the feed. Therefore, we must pay attention to nutrient supply, and have not solved the problem of insufficient nutrition in feed. We recommend “21 Golden Vitamins or Vitality Source” to improve feed nutrition and avoid the drop in egg production rate.
3. In summer, viral diseases are reduced, followed by bacterial diseases. Diarrhea is a common problem in summer chickens. For diarrhea, we must distinguish between physiological diarrhea or pathological diarrhea. Do not use antibiotics when you see loose stools. If the middle of the stool is thin and the sides are not thin, it is physiological diarrhea, only dysentine is needed, and antibiotics are not necessary. If it becomes thinner in general, use some intestinal Chinese medicine (Baifeng San) and dystiling. Raising chickens means raising the intestines. A good intestine is the basis of all problems. It is recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine (Baifeng San) to regulate the intestines for a long time. Usually pay attention to the prevention of intestinal diseases, and use 7-9 days a month to effectively prevent intestinal diseases.
4. The temperature of the chicken house is high and cannot be lowered. It is recommended to install a wet curtain in the chicken house and add “icy” to the water. Try not to use water spray to lower the temperature, especially do not spray water on the chicken head.
