A special water supply system is set up on the chicken equipment to meet the drinking water needs of the chickens, and the system can be set freely according to the needs of users. Now that autumn is coming, how should users set the water supply mode of chicken equipment?
The water supply of chicken equipment in autumn should be timely, because the chicken flock will be cut off for 24 hours, and the egg production will be reduced by about 30%, and it will take about 25~30 days to return to normal; The flock of chickens is cut off for 36 hours, and the egg production can not be restored to the original level, and if the water is cut off for more than 36 hours, some chickens will stop laying eggs, resulting in moulting. Therefore, it is therefore necessary to provide adequate drinking water in a timely manner. In general, the water requirement of each chicken in autumn is about 200ml.
In addition, special attention should be paid to the water supply of chicken equipment during the peak period of chicken egg production, otherwise, it will directly affect its egg production and health. Especially in the three periods of 8:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m. and 18:00 p.m. every day, there should be no shortage of water, because most of the chickens' drinking time is in the light time, and around 8:00 in the morning, the chickens begin to receive light; Around 12:00 noon, it is the peak time for chickens to lay eggs, after laying eggs, the hen consumes more water in the body, and feels very thirsty to drink water; Around 18:00 in the afternoon, the light time is about to end, and the evening is ready to start resting, and the chickens should drink enough water for the evening body backup. Therefore, we should reasonably set up the water supply mode of chicken raising equipment according to the drinking water needs of chickens to help increase the egg production of chickens.
