Important suggestions for Poultry Farmers
Provide the curtains at windows in poultry sheds. The temperature should not go below 60º F inside the poultry sheds and suitable measures like doubling of curtains should be taken. Keep the chicks warm by giving them artificial heat according to age. For the first week internal temperature of the shed should be 90-95º F and it should decrease 5º F per week or according to weather conditions. Poultry ration should have more energy. Increase cereals by 5-8% in the ration by reducing the rice bran. Add coccidiostat in the ration to prevent its occurrence. Do not store the feed for more than 15 days.
