1, add grease. In summer, when the ambient temperature exceeds 25#, the chicken's intake of energy feed decreases to reduce its own heat production, so the intake of other nutrients also decreases accordingly, which leads to the decline of laying performance of laying hens, which needs to be compensated by diets with higher nutritional concentration. The organic way to improve dietary energy is to replace some carbohydrates with animal and plant fats.

2. Improve protein today. It is hot in summer, and the feed intake of chickens decreases. Only by improving the level of protein in feed and ensuring the balance of amino acids can we meet the needs of protein.

3. Increase mineral feed. In midsummer, the calcium content in the diet of laying hens can be increased to 3.8%-4%, but the calcium content in the compound feed is too high. Will affect palatability.

4. Supplement green sweat feed. The green and juicy feed is palatable and rich in vitamins, which can increase the feed intake of laying hens and stimulate them to lay more eggs, which is beneficial to health and heatstroke prevention.
