Autumn and winter is a good season for farmers to harvest and collect food, but it is also an eventful event for chickens. Many diseases are prone to occur this season. This requires us to do more detailed and better in feeding management and disease prevention. The author summarizes the relevant knowledge he has learned and the experiences he has learned in the chicken industry for more than 20 years. First, cold insulation: 1. Check whether the houses and windows are windproof and leakproof. If so, repair them immediately. 2, strong adaptability. In the late autumn and early winter, although the temperature has dropped, and proper attention is paid to insulation, it is better to leave some windows with higher positions not to be closed, so as to facilitate ventilation and lower part of room temperature so as to adapt to the low temperature in winter. 3, heating equipment. If necessary, heating facilities can be added to ensure good production performance. Second, adjust the drink: winter chickens in order to withstand the cold, heat consumption, it is necessary to increase the proportion of energy feed. Third, increase the light: natural light in winter time is short, can not meet the production needs of chicken production period, to make up to 16-17 hours. Fourth, ventilation: cold and warm at the same time should pay attention to appropriate ventilation. Practice has proved that if blind attention is paid to keeping warm and improper ventilation, the effect of irritating the eyes and nose in chicken houses on chickens is far more significant than the effect of low temperature in a certain range. Therefore, it should be properly ventilated. Fifth, epidemic prevention treatment: to prevent the main prevention and control combination. Regular vaccination. Disinfect chicken houses, utensils, and drinking water regularly. Do a good job of preventive drug use and regular immunization of chickens. Observe the flock daily to find and isolate and treat diseased chickens. China Agricultural Network Editor
