What to do if egg production decreases in summer?

Advantages of vitamin c

Vitamin C participates in the oxidation-reduction reaction in chickens, protects the active sulfhydryl group in the enzyme system, and plays a detoxification role in the body; participates in the synthesis of intercellular substance, reduces capillary permeability, promotes wound healing, promotes folic acid to form hydrogen folic acid, and protects ferrous ions , play a role in preventing anemia, enhance the body’s immunity, and relieve stress response. When vitamin C is deficient, chickens are prone to scurvy, growth stagnation, weight loss, joint softening, and anemia in various parts of the body.

Supplementary feeding vitamin C to chickens in summer can make chickens produce more eggs. Under normal temperature, vitamins can be synthesized by the chicken body itself without supplementary feeding. However, the temperature in summer is high, and the function of the chicken body to synthesize vitamin C is reduced, causing the chicken to lack vitamin C.

How do chicken farmers prevent chicken pox in summer?

Mosquito bites are the main transmission medium of chicken pox. In summer, mosquitoes breed and reproduce rapidly under high temperature and high humidity conditions, resulting in frequent chicken pox, which brings great troubles to farmers. How should farmers prevent it?

Choose high-quality big-brand vaccine manufacturers, strictly control vaccine storage conditions, scientifically formulate immunization procedures, and master correct immunization methods, etc.

Immunization.

The vaccine currently used for this disease is mainly chickenpox virus quailization attenuated vaccine, which is prepared by chicken embryo or cell culture, and the attenuated vaccine prepared by cell culture has the best effect.

Inoculation method.

The main method is the wing pricking method. The diluted vaccine can be dipped with the tip of a pen or a pricking needle specially used for chickenpox vaccine and pricked in the avascular triangular area of the wing on the inner side of the wing to avoid injury to muscles, joints and blood vessels. The first immunization is usually around 10-20 days old, and the second immunization is carried out before the start of delivery. Generally, immunity will be produced 10-14 days after vaccination. The immune period (protection period) of chicks is 2-3 months, and that of adult chickens is 5 months.

Strengthen management. Overcrowded chickens, poor ventilation, dark, damp coops, ectoparasites, malnutrition, lack of vitamins, and poor feeding and management can all contribute to the occurrence and aggravation of the disease.

To prevent chicken pox, we should also pay attention to improving the level of management technology. We can start from the following aspects:

1. Reasonably plan the site, scientifically build the chicken house, pay attention to the drainage of the site, and strengthen the cleaning and disinfection of the environment inside and outside the chicken house. Attention should be paid to ventilation and moisture-proof in high temperature and high humidity seasons;

2. Adhere to the all-in-all-out system, raise chickens of different ages in groups, and the stocking density is appropriate; maintain comprehensive nutrition in the diet, and enhance the disease resistance of chickens

3.Strengthen mosquito repellent work inside and outside the chicken house in summer and autumn;
