Chickens are emaciated, but they are not good to eat, and even directly reduce the material, this situation has been encountered by many chicken farmers, and many farmers can not find a specific reason for a while, which is a headache. Next, I will analyze the causes and solutions of this phenomenon to help you solve the problem in time.
1. Pathological factors
When certain diseases occur in chickens, such as viral infections, bacterial diseases, adenomyositis gastritis, coccidiosis or other parasitic diseases and low immunity, it will lead to digestive disorders in chickens, destroy the normal intestinal flora of chickens, affect the digestion and absorption of feed nutrients, and lead to emaciation and decreased feed intake.
It is recommended that farmers observe the symptoms of chickens, and judge which diseases or parasites are caused by their overall syndrome performance, and then treat them symptomatically, so as to solve the problem of low feed intake and weight growth of chickens.
For example, if it is caused by glandular gastritis that chickens are emaciated and do not eat, they need to be used in time: muscular swordsman + amoxicillin, the treatment effect is very good; if it is caused by the imbalance of intestinal flora, the balance of intestinal flora can be restored by supplementing intestinal beneficial bacteria, such as using: Changyi swordsman, promoting the recovery of digestion and absorption ability, etc.
Second, feeding management factors
For example: hot weather chickens heat stress, chicken coop water tank, water line, sink is not cleaned and disinfected in time, resulting in water is polluted by some pathogenic microorganisms, chickens eat spoiled and moldy feed, etc., if these factors exist for a long time, chickens are inevitably prone to decreased immunity, disease, emaciation and other problems.
Therefore, in the process of raising chickens, we must manage them carefully, especially to ensure that their diets are clean and hygienic, so as to reduce the risk of disease in the flock.
3. Nutritional factors
For example, the feed formula is unreasonable, the palatability is poor, the proportion of raw materials is unbalanced, the feed mildew causes mycotoxin poisoning and the improper use of drugs causes intestinal flora imbalance, etc., which will lead to the transformation of feed nutrition in chickens, and the decline in feed intake will affect the growth and development rate of chickens.
Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the feed nutrition of the flock to ensure that the feed nutrition is sufficient. It can be mixed at the same time as normal feeding: Little Shepherd Meat and Poultry Edition, improve the growth rate of chickens, promote the digestion and absorption of feed nutrients, improve the appetite of chickens, and increase the weight of chickens.
The above are the common causes of chicken emaciation and reduced feed intake and the introduction of improvement measures, I hope it will be helpful to you. Follow me and learn poultry farming knowledge and technology together every day!
