Matters needing attention in raising chickens
1. Ventilation in winter is generally horizontal side window ventilation, and the ventilation volume is small, mainly to discharge harmful gases in the henhouse: ammonia, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide, so that chickens can achieve the purpose of ventilation in the henhouse.
2. When the side window is ventilated, it should be noted that the cold air in the side window cannot be directly blown to the chicken, and the angle of the side window is adjusted: the angle is large during the day and small at night. When the temperature is high at noon, the henhouse can increase the ventilation and accelerate the discharge of harmful gases.
