Winter chicks need to pay attention to these matters

First, preparation before the brooding brooding house to do a good job in advance cleaning, maintenance and disinfection work, and ready to use appliances. Feeds and commonly used drugs should be prepared. Recorders should be prepared (recorded feed intake, drinking water, temperature, number of deaths, weight, and use of drugs, etc., recorded once a day), and brooders should be trained.

Second, the brooding house warm up in advance due to low temperatures in winter and spring season, the wall and the ground temperature is low, must be 2 to 5 hours ahead of time to warm the brooding room, only when the temperature of the wall and the ground rise to a certain extent, the brooding room The temperature can maintain the temperature. If the temperature of the house is not stable after the house is laid, first try to stabilize the house temperature, allow the chicks to rest in the hatchery, and put them in the brooding house after the temperature is stable.

Third, the choice of transportation tools According to different distances, choose different transportation tools. It is best to reach the rearing unit within 8 hours. If it is a long-distance transport, it is best to arrive at the rearing unit within 12 to 48 hours. Failure to reach the rearing unit within 48 hours of hatching will affect the normal growth and development of the chicks. Therefore, it is best to use airplanes for long-distance transportation. Chicks must be transported after the fluff is dry, otherwise it will affect the chick's health and normal growth and development.

Fourth, the preparation of vehicles Due to the lower temperature in winter, the best choice for transport vehicles insulation performance. Carry out a thorough cleaning and disinfecting of the vehicle before picking it up and fill it up with oil. Each vehicle must be equipped with two drivers (one of them knows repair technology) and one technician.

Fifth, install the youngest tool is best to use a dedicated hatching box, the box is divided into four small compartments, each compartment holds 25 to 35 chicks, the number of chicks per box can not exceed 150. The small hole on the upper side of the box can avoid squeezing each other and is conducive to air circulation. In addition, cardboard boxes and bamboo baskets can also be used, but they must be divided.

6. The first hatching box should be fixed with a wooden frame, preferably an empty box. When discharging, there must be a gap between each hatching box, box and carriage, and a space of 15 to 25 cm must be left at the top. Avoid chicks boring and lack of oxygen, so that the chicks suffocate. When handling the youngsters, they must be placed gently and gently to avoid tilting.

Seven, do a good job of insulation In winter the temperature is low, should be transported at noon, and ready to clean the cold-proof supplies shop to cover the young box, such as blankets and sacks.

During transportation, technicians should observe chicks at any time. If you find that a chick's mouth is breathing and the sound is sharp, it means that the temperature inside the compartment is too high and ventilation is needed. If you find that the chicks are hitting the piles and roaring, it means that the temperature in the compartment is too low, and the insulation work should be done in time. The most suitable temperature during transportation is about 25°C. Do not stop during transportation. The occupants should prepare some convenient food to eat in the car.

In short, chick transportation is a technically strong job. If there is slight negligence, it will lead to chickens suffocating, squeezing and freezing, which will cause major economic losses. Therefore, the feeding unit must send escort personnel with experience in carrying young animals. The basic principle of carrying young is safe, rapid and hygienic.
