Technology of hatching chickens in summer

In the past, farm chicks usually choose spring, when the temperature rises, but the temperature and humidity are not very high, it is time to hatch chicks or hatch chicks in autumn and spring. But in today's ready-to-use market, hatching chicks must be carried out all the year round. The general idea is to create a suitable environment to ensure the normal operation of the incubation. So hatching chicks in a man-made environment needs to create those conditions to ensure the hatching of the chicks, and how to ensure the survival of the chicks after hatching. Then this article is mainly about this part.

1. Preparatory work

First of all, you should choose eggs that are fertilized well. Generally, you can look at them under the light to see if they are fertilized. The fertilized eggs will have a round black dot, so that the eggs can be used to hatch. In addition, you have to choose large eggs with relatively hard shells. After that, you need to prepare the incubator, which usually has a vertical incubator like a refrigerator. After cleaning and disinfecting, put the eggs layer by layer on an egg incubator tray, and then control the temperature, about 30 degrees, and you can wait for hatching. The incubator on the first floor also operates in the same way.

2. Hatching method

In fact, hatching can be hatched naturally, that is, hen hatching, most of the process of hen hatching is carried out naturally. At present, aquaculture is artificial hatching, the most important thing in the hatching process is temperature control and humidity control, the general control temperature should be between 30 degrees and 35 degrees, which is beneficial to hatching. Humidity generally if the incubator is always airtight, the humidity is relatively low, so you can open the door from time to time to breathe, increase oxygen and humidity. Turn the eggs over after hatching for a period of time so that they can be fully heated. Light must always be kept in the incubator. It's the only way to hatch.

3. Management work

Mainly to manage the temperature, humidity, light, air, the temperature is initially controlled at about 35 degrees, after a period of time can be reduced to 32 degrees. The temperature of the incubator can not reach 40 degrees, nor can it be lower than 30 degrees, high temperature and low temperature are not conducive to the development of chicks shell. Usually you can spray water on eggs once a day, spray warm water, so as to ensure hatching moisture. Light must be received throughout the day so that it can hatch. Incubation can use oxygenation equipment to supplement oxygen. Check at any time after 4 days of hatching, and the hatched chicks should be quickly transferred to the brooding room.

4. Cultivate chicks

Shell chicks on the way to the nursery, should pay attention to heat preservation, external low temperature can not affect the chicks, newborn chicks feathers are not plump, the hair is moist, easy to catch a cold and die. First, the feathers of the chicks should be dried, the temperature of the nursery should be kept at 28 degrees, and then the chicks should be placed in a place covered with soft things. As the chicken grows up, it can gradually cool down to the normal indoor temperature, but the stove should be provided for heating in winter. Feed a little concentrate after three days, gradually vegetables and leaves after two weeks, and normal feeding after a month. Don't go out until winter is over.

If you hatch chicks, there are many things to pay attention to in winter because of the influence of temperature. Therefore, we need to pay special attention to the details, the necessary factors must be the best, to provide the most suitable environmental conditions for hatching, so as to ensure the hatching rate. After hatching, we should also do a good job of management, so as to ensure the survival rate.
