Basic information

Maintaining broiler cages has been a major challenge faced by broiler farmers. Broiler cages are used in the chicken industry, but one thing to pay attention to when using is to prevent rust. However, environmental problems in chicken cages will directly affect the growth status and production efficiency of chickens. Therefore, the chicken cage factory recommends cleaning and disinfecting the chicken cage. Most of the broiler cages we use are made of metal. Because of its materials, it will inevitably rust If not properly maintained. It will be more corrosive. The chickens are raised indoors. So the chicken can contact the broiler cage at any time. If the chicken skin touches the rusty part, this is not necessarily a good thing. It is therefore important for all broiler farmers to take cognizance of how to maintain the battery cages

Product description

Battery cages are a housing system used for various animal production methods, but primarily for egg laying hens. The name arises from the arrangement of rows and columns of identical cages connected together, in a unit, as in an artillery battery. Although the term is usually applied to poultry farming, similar cage systems are used for other animals. Battery cages have generated controversy between advocates for animal welfare and industrial producers. Original battery cages extended the technology used in battery brooders, which were cages with a wire mesh floor and integral heating elements for brooding chicks. The wire floor allowed the manure to pass through, removing it from the chicks’ environment and reducing the risk of manure-borne diseases. Early battery cages were often used for selecting hens based on performance, since it is easy to track how many eggs each hen is laying if only one hen is placed in a cage. Later, this was combined with artificial insemination, giving a technique where each egg's parentage is known. This method is still used today

Maintenance processes

1. Cleaning of chicken cage equipment and cages

Mainly designed with galvanized mesh. It is not easy to scratch under normal conditions. However, some impurities will adhere during use. Such as chicken feathers, feed and chicken manure. It took a long time. It may scab and harden. So we need to take it out for cleaning. Do not rub with a stiff brush. Soak after washing. Soak the dirt until soft. Then rinse with clean water

2. Sterilization of chicken cages

Keep broilers in chicken cages at a high density. Therefore, spray disinfection is used. If the disinfection is not clean. Bacteria and viruses will easily remain. This is not conducive to future feeding and disease prevention. Pay attention to the rotation and dosage of disinfectants during disinfection

3. Overhaul work

After the above work is completed, the farmer will start to overhaul the chicken cage, check the chicken cage for damage, and repair the net bed, repair circuit and heating tools. The tool can at least guarantee to raise a batch of chickens, otherwise it should be replaced, and the damaged bulbs should be completely replaced. It is best to use energy saving bulbs

4. Disinfection of the cage

Move the tools and utensils into the cage, close the doors and windows and the ventilation holes. It is required to be closed and tight without leakage, spray disinfection, ventilation after 10 hours of disinfection, and after 3-4 hours of ventilation, close the doors and windows. All the ceiling walls and net beds of chicken cages should be disinfected with high efficiency and non-corrosive disinfectant, and prepared according to the proportion of the instructions. Ground disinfection should be sprayed with 3% hot alkali water or lime

5. Fumigation and disinfection

Fumigation and disinfection is a relatively thorough method of disinfection. Farmers should pay attention to closing doors and windows and vents when fumigation, check whether the temperature and humidity meet the requirements, and seal the door immediately after completion. During the empty house disinfection, no one or animal enters the chicken cage. After fumigation, the doors, windows and vents are opened 24-36 hours, and the air is fully ventilated

The above is a relatively simple cleaning method. In fact, in order to keep the chicken coop equipment tidy. The meticulous maintenance of the equipment is essential. In normal use. We try not to pull, pull and close the door too hard. To reduce the collision of materials. Usually when raising chickens. Do not spread the feed around the chicken coop. Do not soak in liquid. Usually the correct installation method is to use it, which is an effective way to extend the service life of chicken cage equipment. The maintenance of the broiler battery cage system of poultry determines how long it can be used. Only maintain the equipment. This can be beneficial to the economic benefits of farmers
