Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of poultry farming technology, specifically a method for reducing antibiotic use in chicken farming. Background Technology

[0002] In chicken factory operations, chicken houses are neatly arranged, chicks grow in a suitable temperature and humidity environment, automatic feeding devices deliver nutritionally balanced feed on time, a drinking water system continuously supplies clean water, a ventilation system operates efficiently to ensure fresh air, and professionals closely monitor the health of the flock, continuously delivering high-quality chicken products to the market.

[0003] A Chinese patent with publication number CN106719330B discloses a method for raising chickens. This method employs a series of devices including a chicken coop, a fermentation chamber, a stirring rod, a chicken manure collection cover, and a lever. The chicken coop has a first through hole on its bottom, allowing chicken droppings to directly enter the fermentation chamber located beneath the coop for timely cleaning. The fermentation chamber also quickly decomposes the chicken manure, ensuring its full utilization. This method provides a good growing environment for chickens, reducing disease rates and improving survival rates. However, during the raising process, the lever and the chicken manure collection cover still retain excrement, which can lead to bacterial growth, affecting the chickens' health and causing illness.

[0035] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] To further understand the content of this invention, a detailed description of the invention will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0037] Combination Figure 1 One method for reducing antibiotic use in chicken farming includes the following:

[0038] S1: Before the chicks are put into the coop, the inside of the chicken raising equipment is cleaned and disinfected. The disinfectant solution is prepared by diluting 500 ml of 2% glutaraldehyde solution with water to 5000 ml.

[0039] S2: After disinfection, leave the area empty for 3 days, then put the chicks into the chicken raising device in groups of 6. When feeding, feed the chicks 4-5 times a day for 1-10 days after birth, with each chick receiving 6-8 grams of feed each time. Feed the chicks 3-4 times a day for 11-30 days after birth, with each chick receiving 15-20 grams of feed each time. After 30 days after birth, feed the chicks 3 times a day, with each chick receiving 35-40 grams of feed each time.

[0040] S3: Three hours after each feeding, clean the chicken manure inside the chicken feeding device to ensure good environmental hygiene;

[0041] S4: During the breeding process, the temperature inside the chicken raising device should be controlled at 30-35 degrees Celsius for 1-15 days after the chicks are born, and at 22-25 degrees Celsius after 15 days after the chicks are born.

[0042] Within 1-30 days after hatching, the feed composition for chicks is 50-55 parts cornmeal, 20-25 parts soybean meal, 10-12 parts brown rice meal, 3-5 parts fishmeal, 2-5 parts olive meal, 0.5-1 part shell powder, 0.5-1 part phytase, and 0.5-1 part astragalus polysaccharide. After 30 days after hatching, the feed composition is 55-60 parts cornmeal, 20-25 parts soybean meal, 12-15 parts brown rice meal, 2-3 parts fishmeal, 1-2 parts meat and bone meal, 1-1.5 parts shell powder, 0.5-1 part phytase, and 0.5-1 part astragalus polysaccharide.

[0043] In actual feeding, for chicks 1-10 days after hatching, the diet consists of 20g cornmeal, 8g soybean meal, 4g brown rice flour, 3g fishmeal, 2g olive powder, 1g shell powder, 1g phytase, and 1g astragalus polysaccharide. In the early stages of feeding, chicks have a small appetite, so a small amount of food should be fed frequently. Phytase is used for digestion and absorption, and olive powder and astragalus polysaccharide are used to enhance the chicks' immunity.

[0044] For chicks 10-30 days after hatching, the diet should consist of 40g cornmeal, 16g soybean meal, 8g brown rice flour, 6g fishmeal, 4g olive powder, 2g shell powder, 2g phytase, and 2g astragalus polysaccharide. As the chicks grow, the amount of feed increases and the composition of the feed becomes more complex.

[0045] Thirty days after chicks hatch, feed them a mixture of 50g cornmeal, 25g soybean meal, 10g brown rice flour, 12g fishmeal, 8g meat and bone meal, 4g shell powder, 4g phytase, and 4g astragalus polysaccharide. Adding meat and bone meal will improve the nutritional content of the feed and promote growth.

[0046] By adding astragalus polysaccharide, phytase, fish meal, and meat and bone meal to the feed, the immunity of chicks is enhanced in the early stages of growth, and their digestion and absorption of feed are promoted. In the later stages of growth, the nutritional value of the feed is improved, and the incidence of disease in chicks is reduced. Astragalus polysaccharide has functions such as immune regulation and antiviral activity, which enhances the immune function of chickens, increases the activity and number of lymphocytes, and promotes antibody production. The addition of phytase breaks down phytic acid phosphorus in the feed during the chickens' consumption, reducing diseases caused by nutritional deficiencies. Combined with fish meal and meat and bone meal, the nutritional content is improved, and the occurrence of diseases in chickens during the feeding process is reduced. Olive powder can improve the immunity of chickens.

[0047] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments.

[0048] See also Figures 1-12 In S1, the chicken raising device includes a raising cage body 1. A cage cover 11 is hinged to the upper surface of the raising cage body 1. An iron mesh frame 14 is installed inside the cage cover 11. A cleaning component 4 for cleaning is installed below the iron mesh frame 14. The cleaning component 4 includes a base plate 47 installed below the iron mesh frame 14. An electric telescopic rod B is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the raising cage body 1. The output end of the electric telescopic rod B is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the base plate 47. An electric telescopic rod A41 is fixedly connected to one side of the raising cage body 1. The extended end of the electric telescopic rod A41 passes through one side of the raising cage body 1 and is fixedly connected to a movable plate 42. A scraping component 43 for cleaning the surface of the base plate 47 is installed on one side of the movable plate 42. A metal brush 421 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the movable plate 42. A water storage plate 44 is also fixedly connected to one side of the movable plate 42. A water sprayer is fixedly connected to one side of the water storage plate 44. Pipe A441, a liquid storage tank B45 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the main body 1 of the breeding cage. A liquid pump is installed inside the liquid storage tank B45. A liquid injection hose 46 is fixedly connected between the liquid storage tank B45 and the water storage plate 44. When the chickens excrete feces, most of the excrement falls through the bottom plate 47. During cleaning, the electric telescopic rod B is used to move the bottom plate 47 downward. After the bottom plate 47 moves down to below the movable plate 42, the electric telescopic rod A41 is activated. The electric telescopic rod A41 moves the movable plate 42 along the direction of the movable plate 42. The metal brush 421 scrapes and cleans the iron mesh frame 14. The scraping component 43 is used to scrape off the excrement on the surface of the bottom plate 47. At the same time, the liquid pump works to discharge the water inside the liquid storage tank B45 through the liquid injection hose 46 from the water storage plate 44 and the water spray pipe A441. The feces are moistened during scraping to reduce the difficulty of scraping.

[0049] The scraping assembly 43 includes a trapezoidal block 431 fixedly connected to one side of the movable plate 42. A tilting groove 432 is provided on one side of the trapezoidal block 431. A rotating rod 434 is rotatably connected inside the tilting groove 432. A connecting plate 433 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating rod 434. The connecting plate 433 is located inside the tilting groove 432. A torsion spring 435 is provided at the connection between the rotating rod 434 and the tilting groove 432. A scraper 436 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate 433. A collection groove 16 is provided on the inner wall of the main body 1 of the breeding cage. The collection groove 16 and the scraper 436 are correspondingly arranged. When the scraping assembly 43 moves to scrape, the feces are pushed into the collection groove 16 for collection. At the same time, the trapezoidal block 431 continues to move, and the scraper 436 contacts the inner wall of the collection groove 16. Under the action of the rotating rod 434 and the torsion spring 435, the scraper 436 is bent. The inner wall of the collection groove 16 is used to scrape the scraper 436, ensuring the cleaning effect.

[0050] An installation plate 17 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the collection tank 16. A connecting pipe 171 is fixedly connected to one side of the installation plate 17. The connecting pipe 171 is correspondingly set with the water spray pipe A441. A guide pipe 172 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the installation plate 17. The guide pipe 172 is internally connected to the connecting pipe 171. When the water storage plate 44 moves towards the collection tank 16, the connecting pipe 171 and the water spray pipe A441 are connected to achieve water flow. At this time, the water is discharged through the guide pipe 172. The water discharge through the guide pipe 172, together with the collection tank 16, cleans the surface of the trapezoidal block 431 and prevents feces from adhering.

[0051] The movable plate 42 has a hollow structure. Inside the movable plate 42, there is an air replenishment component 5 for air-assisted cleaning of the wire mesh frame 14. The air replenishment component 5 includes an inner plate 51 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the movable plate 42, a spring 52 fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the inner plate 51, a magnetic plate A53 fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the spring 52, a magnetic plate B56 inside the bottom plate 47, and magnetic plates B56 and A53 repel each other magnetically. An air-blowing inclined tube 54 is fixedly connected to one side of the movable plate 42, and a one-way pressure valve A55 is installed at the upper end of the air-blowing inclined tube 54. A breathing valve for balancing the air pressure inside the movable plate 42 is installed on the outside of the movable plate 42. A magnetic block A422 is installed inside the movable plate 42. An air storage tank 18 is opened inside the air storage tank 18, and a magnetic block B181 is slidably connected inside the air storage tank 18. Magnetic blocks A422 and B181 attract each other. A breathing valve for balancing air pressure is provided on the outside of the air storage tank 18. A ventilation hose 182 is fixedly connected to one end of the air storage tank 18. A connecting port 57 is opened on one side of the movable plate 42. One end of the ventilation hose 182 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting port 57. When the movable plate 42 moves, the magnetic repulsion between the magnetic plates A53 and B56 causes the magnetic plate A53 to move upward. The magnetic plate A53 compresses the air inside the movable plate 42, which is then blown out through the air blowing pipe 54 and the one-way pressure valve A55. At the same time, the spring 52 drives the magnetic plate A53 to reset. The above process is repeated to achieve the effect of continuous air blowing. The magnetic block A422 drives the magnetic block B181 to move synchronously. The magnetic block B181 compresses the air inside the air storage tank 18, which is then discharged from the movable plate 42 through the ventilation hose 182, thus increasing the blowing air pressure.

[0052] A side box 7 is fixedly connected to one side of the main body 1 of the breeding cage. A ventilation component 3 for air extraction and ventilation is installed inside the side box 7. The ventilation component 3 includes a horizontal frame 32 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the side box 7. A motor B33 is fixedly connected to one side of the horizontal frame 32.

A partition net 31 is provided at the connection between the ventilation component 3 and the inside of the main body 1 of the breeding cage. The cleaning brush 391 is attached to the outer side of the partition net 31. During breeding, ventilation is carried out 2-3 times a day, with each ventilation lasting 3 hours. When exhausting air, the motor B33 is turned on. The motor B33 drives the rotating shaft 34 to rotate, which in turn drives the fan blade 35 to rotate. The fan blade 35 is used to extract air. The lifting groove 19 is used to block the lint during air extraction. At the same time, during the rotation of the rotating shaft 34, the bevel gear A341, in conjunction with the bevel gear B342 and the belt 37, drives the reciprocating screw 38 to rotate. Under the limiting action of the lifting groove 19, the cleaning rod 39 moves up and down back and forth. The cleaning brush 391 is used to clean the lint on the outer side of the partition net 31.

[0053] The side box 7 has a waste chamber 72 inside, and the bottom surface of the inner wall of the waste chamber 72 is provided with a sloping bottom 73.

The inner wall of the breeding cage body 1 has a connecting groove 161, which is correspondingly set with the cleaning rod 39 and the inner wall of the connecting groove 161 is provided with a rubber baffle 162. The collection groove 16 is correspondingly set with the connecting groove 161 and is connected to the inside of the waste chamber 72. When the cleaning rod 39 moves downward, it drives the fluff to move downward. The cleaning rod 39 pushes open the rubber baffle 162, and the fluff falls into the collection groove 16 through the connecting groove 161 and finally falls into the waste chamber 72 to complete the collection. When the guide pipe 172 drains water, all the impurities inside the waste chamber 72 are discharged downward along the sloping bottom 73 to prevent accumulation.

During disinfection, the disinfectant inside the liquid storage tank A21 is pumped into the liquid storage box 23 through the disinfection pipe 22 by the liquid pump, and finally discharged through the misting nozzle 24 to achieve the disinfection of the inside of the main body 1 of the breeding cage.

[0055] A feeding box 6 for feeding is provided on one side of the main body 1 of the breeding cage. A conveying trough 61 is provided below the feeding box 6. The feeding box 6 is slidably connected to the inside of the conveying trough 61. A motor A62 is fixedly connected to one side of the conveying trough 61. A lead screw A63 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor A62. The lead screw A63 is threadedly connected to the feeding box 6. A feeding trough 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the main body 1 of the breeding cage. An egg-laying trough 15 is opened on the inner wall of the main body 1 of the breeding cage. An egg-collecting trough 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the main body 1 of the breeding cage. The egg-collecting trough 12 is set correspondingly to the egg-laying trough 15. When feeding, the motor A62 is turned on, and the motor A62 drives the lead screw A63 to rotate, thereby driving the feeding box 6 to move along the direction of the conveying trough 61. When moving, the feeding box 6 discharges the feed into the inside of the feeding trough 13. The iron mesh frame 14 has a structure that is high in the middle and low on both sides, which, together with the egg-laying trough 15 and the egg-collecting trough 12, facilitates the discharge of eggs.

[0056] Specifically, when chickens excrete feces, most of the excrement falls through the bottom plate 47. During cleaning, the electric telescopic rod B moves the bottom plate 47 downwards. Once the bottom plate 47 is below the movable plate 42, the electric telescopic rod A41 is activated. The electric telescopic rod A41 moves the movable plate 42 along its direction. The metal brush 421 is used to scrape and clean the wire mesh frame 14, and the feces are pushed into the collection trough 16 for collection. At the same time, the liquid pump discharges water from the liquid storage tank B45 through the liquid injection hose 46 from the water storage plate 44 and the water spray pipe A441, wetting the feces during scraping to reduce the difficulty of scraping. After being scraped off, the trapezoidal block 431 continues to move, and the scraper 436 contacts the inner wall of the collection trough 16. Under the action of the rotating rod 434 and the torsion spring 435, the scraper 436 is bent. The inner wall of the collection trough 16 is used to scrape off the scraper 436. The connecting pipe 171 is connected to the water spray pipe A441 to achieve water connection. At this time, the drainage is discharged through the guide pipe 172. The drainage through the guide pipe 172, together with the collection trough 16, cleans the surface of the trapezoidal block 431, prevents feces from adhering, and improves the breeding environment by timely cleaning of feces and avoiding feces residue, thereby preventing the growth of bacteria, reducing the incidence of chicken diseases and reducing the use of antibiotics.

[0057] When the movable plate 42 moves, the magnetic repulsion between magnetic plate A53 and magnetic plate B56 causes magnetic plate A53 to move upward. Magnetic plate A53 compresses the air inside the movable plate 42, which is then blown through the air-blowing inclined tube 54 and the one-way pressure valve A55. Simultaneously, spring 52 drives magnetic plate A53 to reset. The above process is repeated to achieve continuous air blowing. Magnetic block A422 drives magnetic block B181 to move synchronously, compressing the air inside the air storage tank 18. The air is then discharged from the movable plate 42 through the ventilation hose 182, increasing the air pressure and assisting the metal brush 421 in cleaning the iron mesh frame 14.

[0058] When venting, motor B33 is turned on, which drives the rotating shaft 34 to rotate, which in turn drives the fan blades 35 to rotate. The fan blades 35 are used to draw in air, and the mesh screen 31 blocks the fluff during the air extraction. At the same time, during the rotation of the rotating shaft 34, the bevel gear A341, bevel gear B342 and belt 37 drive the reciprocating screw 38 to rotate. Under the limiting action of the lifting groove 19, the cleaning rod 39 moves up and down back and forth. The cleaning brush 391 cleans the fluff on the outside of the mesh screen 31. Finally, it is discharged into the waste chamber 72 for collection. This prevents bacteria from growing on the fluff and affecting the health of the chickens. Ultimately, it achieves the goal of timely cleaning and treatment of feces and fluff during breeding, reducing the incidence of disease and reducing the use of antibiotics.
