Chicken raising technology: how to deal with extreme weather for free-range chickens in rural areas

Although spring is the season when everything recovers, the temperature in spring is very unstable. It is possible that you will wear a shirt today and a down jacket tomorrow. Spring is the time when the flu is high, and the night in spring is still very cold. Accidentally, the cold wind blew the chicken and caught a cold. At this time, we should pay attention to the warmth of the chicken shed. Be sure to put down the curtains around the chicken shed at night and fix them.

In summer, the temperature changes are generally not very big, but there are two things: heat and heavy rain. What needs to be paid attention to is the cooling measures in the henhouse at night. We can use an electric fan or make a simple water curtain to cool down. Then there's the rainstorm. The chickens are caught in the rain, and something will happen. Whether it is a big chicken or a chicken, some people think that a big chicken is not afraid of getting wet, which is wrong. Pay attention to the weather forecast every day and try to get the chickens back to the shed before evening. If it rains, some Chinese medicines can be used to prevent colds.

The temperature difference between day and night in autumn is large, and it is easy to fog the next morning. Don't let the chickens go out early in the morning in foggy days, and then let them go when the fog clears. Cold air and fog directly enter the respiratory tract of chickens, which is easy to induce respiratory diseases.
