The use of nipple drinkers

The use of nipple drinker brooding (in the case of cage culture) has more advantages than the commonly used tower type vacuum brooder brooding, I think it is worth summarizing, as follows:
(a) drinking water. On the first day of brooding, chicks who cannot drink water in time will become weak chicks on the second day. The use of nipple drinker brooding should pay more attention to this in the early stage. The following measures can be taken to avoid shortage of water in chicks:
1. Fill the water cup underneath the nipple drinker with water (the water contains anti-stress and disease prevention drugs) before the chick arrives.
2. After the chicks are caged, allow the chicks to take a rest to adjust to the new environment, and then teach the chicks to drink. Each cage must teach 6-10. The method is to gently hold the chicks by hand so that they can lick in the cup.
3. After the first session of drinking water, you can spread the material in the cage on the pad (or in the feed tray) to “eat”. Feeding the chicks after opening the food should follow the principle of “little feeding and adding 80% full”. Feeding.
4. After the start of eating 30--40 minutes, start the second time to teach the chicks to drink water. In this way, after the third pass, the water was changed into the water cup (by gently pressing the nipple by hand, the water automatically flows into the cup). During the inspection, the chickens should be carefully observed and the chicks who did not drink water should be picked out and fed separately. Conduit work should be continued until 5 days later, until all chicks are aware that drinking water from nipples.
5. Adjust the height of the nipple drinker in a timely manner. The specific content is shown in Table 1.
Table 1 Days of age and nipple drinking height (days) Nipple height (cm) Day age (days) Nipple height (cm)
1-3 7-8 22-28 19
4-7 9-10 29-35 21
8-14 13 36-41 23
15-21 16 After 42 days old 28
(b) Lighting. The lighting in the early brooding period should be sufficient. Where the chicks drink water and eat ingredients, the light must reach a certain brightness in order to facilitate the chicks to eat and drink. In particular, where the nipple drinker is located, water droplets on the teat have an inducing effect on the chicks.
(c) Density. To ensure that each chick has enough water level and material level, it is recommended that the number of breeding per square meter is 50-55.
(four) matters needing attention. Compared with the commonly used tower-type vacuum waterer, brooding with a nipple drinker can save water and reduce the workload on the one hand; on the other hand, it can save space, and it is easy to maintain clean and hygienic inside the cage, which is conducive to epidemic prevention. However, the following points should be noted:
1 nipple drinker below to connect the cup. Because most chicks will not get water on the nipples within 1- 2 days of age.
2.1--5 days of age should always guide the water into the cup.
3. Each nipple drinker allows 9--11 chicks to drink until 28-35 days old, and then group them according to the stocking density.
