How to take off the temperature of chicks?

Cooling or cooling refers to stopping heat preservation to make chicks survive at natural room temperature. With the increase of day age, the feed intake and weight of local chicks increase, the body temperature regulation function is gradually improved, the cold tolerance is strong, or the temperature during the brooding period is high, which has reached the required temperature for brooding. At this time, we should consider cooling down. Dehydration time: generally, young chicks are 30-45 days old in spring, early in summer and autumn, and 50-60 days old in winter.

The time of cooling down in the morning and evening depends on the temperature, chicken breed, health status, growth rate, etc., which needs to be mastered flexibly. For example, in winter, chicks often have reached the age of cooling, but the indoor and outdoor temperatures are low, the temperature difference between day and night is large, or chicks are weak and sick, so it is necessary to delay the cooling. Dehumidification should be carried out step by step in a planned way. At the beginning, the temperature should be stopped during the day and still supplied at night, or when the temperature is suitable and the temperature is low. After about 1 week, the temperature supply will completely stop when the chicks adapt to the natural temperature.

It is often encountered in chicken raising practice, especially in winter chicks. The temperature drops, the climate changes suddenly, and the cold air strikes. At this time, it is still necessary to provide the appropriate temperature. Therefore, when the chicken's body temperature drops, it is still necessary to pay attention to the weather change and the activity state of the chicken, and take corresponding measures to prevent the loss caused by low temperature.
