1. For example, after entering autumn, the days will gradually become shorter, and the chicken coop will be lit at night for a period of time to help improve the egg production rate of chickens. Bulbs can be selected around 60W or 100W (energy-saving lamps and incandescent lamps cannot be used). The height of the bulb must be as close to the chicken as possible, which can also play a role in heat preservation.
2. The advantage of turning on the special light for the chicken coop at night is that the chicken can mistakenly think that it is daytime, and then eat all the time, improve the growth rate of the chicken, and also facilitate the management of workers. The disadvantage of turning on the lights at night in the chicken coop is that if the lights are turned on for a long time in summer, the indoor temperature will increase, which may cause the chickens to fight with each other, and sometimes the phenomenon of early maturation.
3. When building a chicken coop, pay attention to the height of the ground inside the chicken coop should be about 25-35cm higher than the ground outside the house, otherwise the ground and litter of the chicken coop will be wet, resulting in the chickens being infected with diseases.
4. If you encounter heavy rain, you can also prevent rainwater from pouring into the chicken coop. The color of the plastic window of the chicken coop roller shutter, south and north, the lower roller shutter should be mainly dark, the upper part can be transparent, the upper transparent part can not occupy more than 1/3 of the window area, the lower part of the upper and lower roller shutter should be added with the facilities of wind blowing, which is conducive to heat preservation and prevent thief wind from entering.
