TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to animal breeding technical field especially relates to sheep drinking water and feed adding integrated device. BACKGROUND
[0002] Sheep generally have relatively small body size, and the body is covered with wool. The color of wool is diverse, and common colors include white, black, and gray. Sheep are herbivorous animals that mainly eat various grasses, leaves, and crop stalks. They have a special digestive system that can effectively digest and utilize plant fibers. Sheep have various economic values, such as meat, wool, milk, and skin.
[0003] In the traditional sheep breeding mode, the drinking water area and the feeding area are often set up independently. This layout occupies a large amount of internal space in the sheep shed, and the limited breeding site is difficult to utilize efficiently due to the separation of the two areas. Breeders have to deal with heavy work processes every day, and they need to operate separately due to the separation of the drinking water area and the feeding area. Breeders need to go to the feeding area first, manually add feed to the feeding trough one by one to ensure that each sheep has enough food. After completing the feeding work, they go to the drinking water area to check the water tank for blockage or leakage, then pour clean water into the water tank with buckets to ensure that the sheep can drink clean water at any time.
[0004] This mode requires breeders to go to the drinking water area and the feeding area for loading at regular intervals, which not only occupies a large space in the breeding field but also causes breeders to spend time and effort, resulting in high labor intensity, which makes breeders have less time to pay attention to the health and growth of sheep, affecting the growth of sheep.
