#broilers

[devoted1989]

A broiler chicken reaches its slaughter weight after about 40 days. Broiler chickens are therefore not even 1.5 months old when they're slaughtered for meat.

In the 1950s, it took a chicken 100 days to weigh in at its slaughter weight of 1.8 kilograms. Today, a broiler chicken reaches this weight in just around 30 days. The reason for this is that since then broilers have been bred specifically for rapid weight gain.

Free-range broilers will usually be slaughtered at 8 weeks old and organic broilers at around 12 weeks

Broiler chickens have an average lifespan of 7 to 8 years.

my family is fucking addicted to macgyvering and it's becoming a problem. every time something in this house breaks, instead of doing the sensible thing of replacing it or calling someone qualified to fix it, we all group around the offending object with a manic look in our eyes and everyone gets a try at fixing it while being cheered on or ridiculed by the rest.

it's a beautiful bonding activity, but the "creative" fixes have turned our house into a quasihaunted escape room like contraption where everything works, but only in the wonkiest of ways. you need a huge block of iron to turn on the stove. the oven only works if a specific clock is plugged in. the bread machine has a huge wood block just stapled to it that has become foundational to its function. sometimes when you use the toaster the doorbell rings. and that's just the kitchen.

it's all fun and games until you have guests over and you have to lay out the rules of the house like it's a fucking board game. welcome to the beautiful guest room. don't pull out the couch yourself you need a screwdriver for that, and that metal rod makes the lamp work so don't move it. it also made me a terrifying roommate in college, because it makes me think i can fix anything with enough hubris and a drill. you want to call the landlord about a leaky faucet? as if. one time my dad made me install a new power socket because we ran our of extension cords

Sonntag bin ich ganz unerwartet und vollkommen überraschend in den Genuss eines Festivals gekommen – war natürlich nicht so geplant.

How to achieve Performance and Production efficiency in Poultry farming

Production efficiency is achieved when the animal reaches a high level of performance and feed intake while maintaining good health. Feed alone accounts for most of a livestock farmer’s total costs. Optimize your investment in layer hens by ensuring efficient intake of nutrients that translate to robust egg production, good health and enhanced overall productivity.

It involves implementing various strategies and best practices. Here are some key steps to help improve performance and production efficiency:

Optimize nutrition: Proper nutrition is essential for optimal growth, health, and performance of poultry. Consult with a poultry nutritionist to develop balanced and customized feed formulations that meet the specific nutritional requirements of different poultry species and production stages. This includes ensuring appropriate levels of protein, energy, vitamins, and minerals.

Monitor and manage flock health: Regularly monitor the health of the flock through routine veterinary checks and implement effective disease prevention and control measures. Vaccination programs, biosecurity protocols, and proper hygiene practices are crucial in minimizing the risk of disease outbreaks and ensuring optimal flock health.

Provide suitable housing and environment: Ensure that the poultry housing facilities are designed and maintained to provide optimal conditions for the birds. Proper ventilation, lighting, temperature control, and adequate space per bird are important factors to consider. Well-designed housing helps to reduce stress, prevent diseases, and improve overall performance.

Implement biosecurity measures: Establish strict biosecurity protocols to prevent the introduction and spread of diseases. This includes limiting access to poultry houses, practicing proper hygiene and sanitation, controlling visitors and vehicles, and maintaining separation between different poultry flocks.

Optimize production management: Efficient production management practices can significantly impact performance and productivity. This includes careful monitoring and recording of key performance indicators such as feed conversion ratio, body weight, mortality rates, and egg production. Regularly analyze the data to identify areas for improvement and make informed decisions regarding flock management.

Continuous education and training: Keep yourself and your staff updated with the latest advancements and best practices in poultry farming. Attend industry conferences, workshops, and training programs to gain knowledge about emerging trends, technological advancements, and innovative management practices that can enhance performance and efficiency.

Implement quality control measures: Maintain strict quality control measures throughout the production process, from feed formulation to final product. Regularly test feed ingredients for quality and nutritional composition, and conduct periodic analysis of finished products to ensure they meet the required standards.
