Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention mainly relates to the technical field of lamb supplementary feeding systems, and in particular to a separate lamb supplementary feeding system and a supplementary feeding method. Background Art
[0002] The production sector of livestock products, which converts plant energy such as forage and fodder into animal energy through artificial breeding and reproduction, in order to obtain livestock products such as meat, eggs, milk, wool, cashmere, hides, silk and medicinal materials, among which farmed sheep is one of the livestock.
[0003] At present, most of the farmed lambs are usually supplemented with feed manually during the actual feeding and supplementary feeding process. However, for the feeding of a large group of lambs, it increases the labor intensity and workload of the manual labor, and also increases the number of manual feeding. In addition, the artificially fed lambs are sometimes frightened and run around, which is not conducive to the timely replenishment of feed, is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and increases the fear of the lambs. It is inconvenient to use, and the dry and wet feeds of the lambs are mostly in the same feed trough when they are eating, which can easily cause the dry feed to be affected by the wet feed, which in turn makes it inconvenient for the lambs to eat and grow.

When the liquid level is lower than a preset value, water in a water storage tank is added to the wet feed area through a water outlet pipe. Through a gravity sensor, the weight of dry feed in the dry feed area can be detected. When the weight of dry feed is lower than a preset value, dry feed in a dry feed storage box is added to the dry feed area through an L-shaped outlet pipe, thereby realizing automatic supplementary feeding, reducing the physical labor of operators, ensuring the timeliness of supplementary feeding, and thus ensuring the eating of lambs.
