[0002] Donkeys are a common livestock with strong adaptability and are not picky about food. Their feeding and breeding techniques have always attracted people's attention. In order to make meat donkeys grow healthily and quickly, scientific and reasonable feeding and management are required.
[0003] Traditional animal husbandry relies on manual experience to monitor livestock diet and digestion, and it is difficult to accurately grasp the amount of feed. Existing automatic breeding tools automatically distribute the corresponding feed according to the weight of livestock, and upload information such as the weight and feed amount of the corresponding livestock to the computer system.
[0004] However, the depth of the existing troughs for farmed donkeys is fixed, and the feed is placed directly in the trough. If the trough is too deep, it will be inconvenient for the donkey to eat, and a large amount of feed will remain in the trough, which cannot ensure that the donkey gets adequate nutrition. If the trough is too shallow, the opening area at the top of the trough needs to be increased, which may easily cause other donkeys to compete for the feed, resulting in the donkey not getting enough nutrition and easily leading to inaccurate information records.
[0005] The existing feeding troughs for breeding donkeys have a fixed height, and the heights of donkeys vary with their ages. If the feeding trough is too high, it will be inconvenient for short donkeys to eat, and if the feeding trough is too high, it will be inconvenient for tall donkeys to eat. Utility Model Content
