1. keep warm and defend cold. Winter climate is cold and changeable, which brings a lot of inconvenience to chicken production, especially the influence of low temperature on laying hens is very obvious. In general, cotton drapes can be hung, drinking warm water and furnace heating and other ways to keep warm.

2. Appropriate ventilation. Winter as a result of temperature is lower, door window of chicken coop closes stricter, ventilate a quantity to reduce, but the ammonia gas that the exhaust gas that chicken educates and the ammonia gas that chicken dung ferments the generation, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide waits for harmful gas to still exist, cause the disease such as the respiratory tract of chicken easily. Accordingly, want to handle the relation of ventilated good with warmth practically, remove the excrement and urine inside chicken coop and sundry in time.At noon when the weather is good, should open a window ventilated, make the air inside the shed pure and fresh, oxygen is sufficient.

3. Reduce the moisture. Winter inside thechicken farm poultry equipmentventilate quantity is small, moisture evaporates a quantity to reduce, in addition the hot air inside the chicken coop contacts cold housetop and wall to be able to condense a lot of water bead, cause excessive humidity inside the chicken coop, created a condition to the large number of reproduction of bacterium and parasite. Therefore, must strengthen the management, pay attention to keep the chicken house clean and dry, timely maintenance of the damaged sink, when adding water to avoid too much too full, is prohibited to splash water on the ground inside the house.

4. Regular disinfection. Disinfection should run through the whole process of raising chickens.In winter, when the temperature is lower, the activity frequency of bacteria decreases. But the winter climate is cold, the resistance of the chicken is generally weakened.If disinfection is neglected, disease outbreaks can easily occur.

5. Light supplement. The winter night is long and day is short, and the laying hens will cause a drop in egg production due to insufficient light. Under normal circumstances, the total time of daylighting should not be less than 14 hours, and no more than 17 hours. For example, the natural light during the day is 12 hours, and it takes 2-5 hours to replenish the light every day.

6. Increase energy. Chickens rely on the feed into the body to obtain heat energy to maintain body temperature, the lower the temperature of the outside world, chickens in the role of cold heat consumption is more. According to the measurement, the feed consumption of winter chickens is increased by 10% compared with other seasons. Therefore, in winter chicken feed must ensure adequate energy, in addition to ensure a certain proportion of protein, should appropriately increase the starch and sugar containing more high-energy feed, in order to meet the physiological and production needs of chickens.
