12 COMMON MISTAKES TO AVOID IN POULTRY FARMING

_Nutrinova ltd shoppers stop plaza room A/F 44_

👉Avoid having dirty water troughs. Dirty water or dirty troughs are the origin of eschelicia coli that causes death, production decline, and losses
👉Avoid having insufficient water space. This can lead to complications like visceral gout( caused by poorly excreted calcium. This causes accumulation of Urates in the kidneys and deposition of urates around the viscera), poor digestion( water availability helps to soften the food for better enzyme action. Water as well helps in absorption and transport digested nutrients to where they are needed), poor growth and poor production.
👉Avoid having insufficient feeder space. This causes competition between the birds, causing survival for the fittest, so some birds will not eat and this will lead to a very bad uniformity and low weights. Production peak will not be reached.
👉 Avoid having insufficient litter in nests leading to dirty eggs , damages, and egg eating. We should also ensure that we create enough darkness in the laying boxes to avoid incidences of cannibalism.
👉Avoid inadequate ventilation. The ammonia smell from the house can cause chocking, pneumonia and other respiratory complications.
👉 Avoid the tendency to give too much medication. Try as much as possible to be organic, and use supplements to support immunity and productivity.
Use of too much antibiotics/ drugs creates resistance of the disease causing agent to chemical drugs.
👉Avoid wrong medication due to wrong diagnosis. Always consult a vet or take your sick bird for a proper postmortem to examination to Makerere laboratory. Buy drugs from genuine suppliers and complete the treatment as prescribed by the veterinarian.
👉Avoid having the feeders too full or improperly adjusted so that feed is wasted.

FARM BIOSECURITY
Farm Biosecurity is a set of preventative measures designed to reduce the risks of entry and spread of pests and infectious disease on a farm.

It means doing everything you can to reduce the chances of an infectious disease being carried onto your farm/property by people, animals, equipment or vehicles.

Farm biosecurity is your responsibility, and that of every person visiting or working on your property.

Examples include;
> A foot bath at the farm entrance for both vehicles and people walking in.
> Hand washing facility at the farm entrance
> Special footwear and clothes for entering the animal or birds house.
> Using of proper feeding and water equipment that do not encourage spread of diseases
> General hygiene on the farm.
> Frequent disinfection of equipment and farm house using a strong disinfectant such as VIROCID
> Avoid bushes and trees next to the poultry house that could facilitate birds and rodents
> Fencing around the farm
> Proper disposal of dead bodies of birds or animals.

PEST CONTROL

(RED MITES)

Red mites can carry harmful bacteria or viruses and transfer them from one bird to another. A severe case of these blood suckers can cause the birds to be anaemic and eventually leading to death.

Always inspect places where red mites are likely to hide daily.

Red mites can be tracked down by knocking on the cage system, box nest or by scrapping in cracks with a knife while holding a white sheet of paper underneath.

In cages, check under the egg protection panel, fastening nuts and gutters.

In deep litter systems, check under perches, under slats, in dry droppings, and the laying boxes.

Keep on the lookout for birds that are always picking themselves.

As the the red mite infection increases it affects egg production since most birds will want to stay away from infected nests leading to more eggs on the floor. These can be broken easily.

It is best to control red mites when the poultry house is empty. Clean it well to remove the hiding places such as under piles of manure.

You may use pesticides as along as you follow the instructions.

Washing is the most effective and simplest ways of removing dirt and stains from shells, but water may contain bacteria that can penetrate the egg shells. Cleaning should therefore preferably be done with an odourless detergent Kenosan and a sanitizing agent kenosept.
Eggs that are only slightly dirty can be cleaned or rubbed with an egg brush, paper towel, sanding sponge or plastic scourer with a gentle rubbing action.
Dirty eggs with mud or faeces that cannot be removed easily using this method should be separated for clean eggs and/or disposed off.

If a dry cloth is used it must be changed if there is any sign of soiling and there should be enough cloths to ensure that only a clean cloth is passed over the egg each time
Dirty cloths must be sanitized, washed and dried thoroughly before reuse.

Any cloth or material used to dry clean eggs must be food safe
Disposable paper towels avoid re-use so are highly recommended
Precautions must be taken if using a damp cloth to clean eggs:

Wash water must be sanitized and changed often
Sanitizers like kenosept and detergents kenosan must be food safe and only used as per the manufacturer’s instructions
Damp cloths should not be dripping wet. They should be rinsed in sanitized water and thoroughly wrung out.
No water should be left on the egg surface. A fine film of moisture that is readily evaporated should only be seen
All cleaning equipment should be sanitised in kenosept for 20 minutes.
NOTE:Sanding blocks should not be used as they are not food grade.
