When raising chickens, if you want to have a high survival rate, you'd better feed them with water once before feeding them for the first time, and then you should have enough clean water for the chickens to use, and you should feed them reasonably. It's best to master the principle of few times. The environment in the henhouse requires warmth and ventilation, and at the same time, you need to inject vaccines for the chickens to prevent them from getting sick. How to raise the survival rate of chicken seedlings is high
1. Clean drinking water
If the survival rate of chicken seedlings is high, then it is necessary to let the chicken seedlings have clean drinking water. Before feeding the chicken seedlings, you can feed them with sugar water or clear water at a temperature of about 18℃. Pay attention to that the water needs to be boiled first, and then when raising the chicken seedlings, you need to let them have enough water, and the water basin should be cleaned and disinfected frequently.
2. Reasonable feeding
If you want to have a high survival rate, you need reasonable feeding. It is best to start eating within 12-24 hours after the chicks are hatched. Generally, you can eat wet corn flour and other feeds. Pay attention to the need for a small number of times of feeding. When the chicks grow up, you can add a certain proportion of green feed to the feed.
3. The environment of the henhouse
Whether the environment of the henhouse is suitable or not is also the key to the survival of the chickens. The inside of the henhouse needs to be warm, preferably around 25-3℃. The temperature of the newly hatched chickens should be adjusted to a higher level, and the humidity should be around 6%. Attention should also be paid to ventilation measures, otherwise the henhouse is too closed, which will easily breed a large number of germs.
4. Pay attention to disease prevention
If you want to have a high survival rate of chicken seedlings, you need to pay attention to disease prevention. You can inject vaccines that can prevent them from getting sick at different growth stages, and you can also add a small amount of gentamicin to the drinking water for the chickens to take, which can also prevent the diseases of the chickens. If sick chickens appear, you must pick them out in time.
