Most hens stop laying in winter. How to keep hens laying in winter?

Most hens stop laying in winter, and it is necessary to be more precise in the process of feeding in order to ensure that the hens can maintain a high egg rate in winter, so that the hens can produce an extra 50 Murray and 70 eggs a year.

Hen

1. Add cold-proof lighting equipment: wind barriers are sandwiched around the chicken house, the floor of the house is covered with grass, the doors and windows are pasted well, grass curtains are put at night, and the house temperature is always kept above 10 ℃. If there are fewer hens, it is best to put them in the house at night.

The optimum temperature for laying eggs is 13 ℃ 23 min. The feed utilization rate also decreased at low temperature, especially the sudden drop of air temperature or continuous low temperature, which also decreased the laying rate. When the temperature was lower than 16 ℃, the feed utilization rate began to decrease. The temperature in winter should not be lower than 8 ℃. When the temperature was lower than 5 ℃, artificial heating should be carried out. The relative humidity of the chicken house in winter is 60 / 80%.

In the environment of low temperature and high humidity, the hen had too much incontinence, the feed intake increased and the feed consumption increased. When it is cold, it not only reduces the production performance, but also produces frostbite. It is difficult but important to keep warm and moistureproof in winter, so comprehensive measures should be taken.

2. The henhouse should have a playground: a rest rack should be set up in the henhouse. The suitable hen density is 5 hens per square meter. When releasing chickens in the morning, adjust the temperature difference inside and outside the house to prevent colds. Hang vegetables and food inside and outside the house to promote exercise, help digestion, increase appetite and strengthen the body. To increase the lighting time, keep 13 murmurs for 14 hours a day; if there is not enough sunlight, you can replenish the electric light.

3. Liquor-mixed feed feeding method: feed chickens with 60-degree liquor mixed feed, mixing 30 murmur40 grams of liquor per kilogram of feed, the laying rate can be increased by about 20%, and the disease resistance of chickens can also be improved.

4, do a good job of epidemic prevention in winter: the chicken coop should be dry and clean, often change plant ash, be used for sur disinfection, and often feed garlic and 0.50% potassium permanganate water.

5. feed should be diversified: sorghum, corn and barnyard weeds are the main concentrate, and carrots, cabbage and spinach are the main green fodder. It should be fed frequently and carefully, and the feed should not be interrupted. Hen laying period, but also feed some bean cakes, corn flour, cooked pig blood and shell meal, fish and shrimp meal, bone meal, etc., to keep drinking water every day.
