Feed chicken disease often leads to increased body temperature, metabolic disorders, therefore, to change the feed nutrients and their content and feeding methods. One is to improve the energy level, according to the degree of feed intake reduction of sick chickens, the energy level should be increased to 1.2 times normal.

Because the disease of chicken will lead to physiological dysfunction, which has a certain impact on the adaptability of the environment, the demand of nutrients and the regulation of endocrine, if we give adjuvant treatment through special management measures at this time, we will get twice the result with half the effort.

The disease of feed chicken often leads to the increase of body temperature and metabolic disorder. therefore, it is necessary to change the nutrients in feed and their content and feeding method. First, to improve the energy level, according to the reduction of feed intake of diseased chickens, the energy level should be increased to 1.2 times of the normal. The second is to increase the content of vitamins. Vitamin An and B vitamins can be increased to 3 times the normal amount, vitamin E can be increased to 5 times the normal amount, and appropriate amounts of vitamin C and vitamin D3 can be added. The third is to appropriately reduce the fat content in the feed. The fourth is to increase the number of feeding facilities and the number of feeding times. If possible, it can be processed into pellet feed or wet feed to stimulate the feeding of chickens. Fifth, it is necessary to keep the feed and its facilities clean and hygienic to prevent feed mildew.

Drinking water in the chicken disease period must ensure the normal supply of drinking water, the water in the drinking fountain should be adequate and clean. If drugs are given in drinking water, first of all, the drugs that are soluble in water should be put in and stirred well, secondly, the dosage should be calculated according to the actual amount of drinking water of chickens, and thirdly, attention should be paid to the effective time of the drugs in the water. ensure that the water is fed or drunk to the treatment dose within the effective period of the drug, and the water should not be cut off before administration.

During the management of chicken disease, it is generally necessary to increase the ventilation volume of the chicken house and keep the air fresh, but pay attention to the heat preservation of the chicken house in winter and try to prevent the direct attack of the cold wind on the chicken. In summer, we should try to lower the temperature of the chicken coop to prevent heat stress. When chickens develop respiratory diseases, do not carry out aerosol immunization and disinfection with chickens.
