Thebroiler battery cagesfirst-time chicks are placed in the brooder cage and given drinking water immediately. In order to speed up the physical recovery, the appropriate amount of glucose and vitamin B can be added to the drinking water and replaced with clean water after 6 hours. Water cannot be cut off throughout the brooding period. Tower drinking fountains can be used for the first few days, and other forms of drinking fountains can be used at 1 week of age. The height is adjusted with the age of the chicken.

        Chicks start to eat 3 hours after drinking. Spread rough thick paper or plastic cloth on the bottom net, and then sprinkle some scraps to let the chicks peck. This feeding method was adopted for the first 2 days, and later it was fed in the feed trough outside the cage. Before the age of 6 weeks, each chick needs a slot of 2.5 cm to allow it to eat freely.

　　Cage area is limited, and the feeding density must be appropriate. If the density is too high, it will affect the growth and development of chicks, and prone to habitual habit, so the density should be adjusted continuously as the chicks age.

　　Every group of strong and weak chicks should be grouped, and the weak chicks should be raised in the upper cage.

　　Chickens in broiler cages should keep thebroiler cage equipmentclean and hygienic. Feed troughs and drinking fountains should be frequently scrubbed and disinfected. The bottom net and the feces receiving plate and the entire cage should be regularly disassembled for thorough disinfection.
