In recent years, many farmers have been looking for cost-effective ways to raise chickens. Professor Zhao Zhaoyu, a poultry expert from the College of Animal Husbandry and Fisheries at Anhui Agricultural University, has suggested using mobile chicken sheds as an innovative and efficient solution. This method not only reduces initial investment but also offers flexibility and better health outcomes for the flock.
Mobile chicken sheds are simple structures made from locally available materials such as bamboo, wood, and plastic film. The basic design includes a frame that is 8 meters long, 1.2 meters wide, and 2.2 meters high. A central door, measuring 0.8 meters in width, is installed without any windows on either side. The structure is covered with thick black plastic film, while the sides and top are secured with old nylon or fishing nets. The floor is laid with bamboo or small branches, and the entire shed is elevated by placing bricks underneath, raising it about 10 to 15 centimeters off the ground. These sheds should be placed in sunny, well-drained areas, ideally near orchards or wooded regions where grass grows naturally.
Chicks can be introduced into the mobile sheds around 30 days old, or they can be purchased directly from large-scale hatcheries. Providing full-coverage feed helps maintain their health while keeping costs low. It's recommended to keep between 800 to 1,000 chickens per group, which corresponds to the capacity of four mobile sheds.
Proper sanitation and disease prevention are essential when using this system. Before each batch of chickens enters the shed, a thorough disinfection process must be carried out. After the chickens are sold, the area should be cleaned, and all waste, including chicken manure and debris, should be removed. Applying lime milk for disinfection is an effective practice.
After raising one or two batches of chickens, the sheds should be relocated to a new site—a process known as "moving the chickens." This practice significantly reduces the risk of disease transmission, as pathogens are less likely to accumulate in the same location over time. By rotating the sheds regularly, farmers can maintain a healthier environment for their flocks while maximizing productivity with minimal investment.
For this infrared thermometer, there are two measurement methods, (1) Sensing measurement: The infrared thermometer will automatically measure the temperature when the sensing head senses the objective at 1CM; During the sensing process, it is not necessary to contact the objective; (2) Manual measurement: When the infrared thermometer turns on, press the [ON/OFF" key, push forward the key and then target at the objective at 1CM with the sensing head. the measurement can be completed within several seconds. During the sensing process, it is not necessary to contact the objective.
Note: For both methods mentioned above, a second measurement can be conducted through pressing the [ON/OFF" if the infrared thermometer will not be moved after the first measurement.
