5. Pay attention to controlling the density of chickens in chicken cages: the density of breeding chickens in chicken cages is large. In order to be able to raise more chickens, some farmers do not pay attention to the standard density and increase the density. Excessive density causes uneven growth of chickens, and it also increases harmful gases in the air. Chickens are prone to infection with E. coli, coccidia, etc., and can accelerate the disease. Therefore, in the process of raising chickens, farmers must not greet the amount of farming, ignoring the appropriate density.
