Traditional Chinese medicine feed additive capable of preventing and treating heat stress in chickens and preparation method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a traditional Chinese medicine feed additive capable of preventing and treating heat stress in chickens and a preparation method thereof. The traditional Chinese medicine feedadditive capable of preventing and treating heat stress in the chickens disclosed by the invention is composed of the following ingredients: lilac pink herb, Chinese arborvitae twig and leaves, honeysuckle flowers, herba houttuyniae, rhizoma coptidis, radix gentianae, and liquorice roots. The invention further discloses a method for preparing the traditional Chinese medicine feed additive. According to results of heat stress alleviation tests in laying hens, being added into daily ration of the laying hens, the traditional Chinese medicine feed additive disclosed by the invention is capable ofeffectively alleviating symptoms of heat stress in broiler chickens; moreover, the traditional Chinese medicine feed additive has significant effects on increasing egg yield, reducing soft shell rate, decreasing mortality and so on. The traditional Chinese medicine feed additive disclosed by the invention is high in safety, and free of any toxic or side effects on the chicken.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a traditional Chinese medicine feed additive for preventing and treating poultry heat stress, in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine feed additive for preventing or treating chicken heat stress and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the field of traditional Chinese medicine treatment for preventing or treating chicken heat stress. Background technique [0002] Heat stress disease refers to an adaptive disease or adaptive syndrome that occurs when animals are strongly stimulated by heat stressors. More generally speaking, the continuous high temperature exceeds the body temperature regulation ability of the chicken itself, thus causing a series of systemic reactions. The clinical features are depression, coma, shortness of breath, heart failure, and in severe cases, it can lead to shock and death of the animal. Heat stress often occurs in seasons when the climate suddenly becomes hot or during periods of conti...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

When heat stress occurs in chickens, the production performance decreases, the immune function decreases, and the mortality rate increases, which brings great economic losses to the chicken breeding industry.

[0004] The use of traditional Chinese medicine to treat heat stress in chickens is an important prevention method, but the existing traditional Chinese medicine feed additives used to relieve heat stress in chickens have the defects of inaccurate curative effect and poor safety, which need to be improved
