Heating from the outside to the chicken starter phase (age 0-4 weeks) is absolutely necessary. This is because the day old chicks (doc) body temperature of about 103 F (39 C). If the chick was directly given heating around 80 F (27C), then this result penerunun doc body temperature to about 82-83 F. And decreased body temperature will be followed a change in the activity rather than the function of organs.
If the doc immediately given a warm 70 F or room temperature only in accordance with the result:
1. Curses will not have much to eat, because eating appetite is reduced it will disrupt the growth process.
2. Food eaten was used as a process of growth, but only used the body adjusting to the heat.
3. And if they can not adjust to the surrounding temperature, the curses will die
That is why the extra heat from the parent absolutely necessary. Additional heat must be regulated in accordance with their needs.
To create according to the desired temperature, the heating temperature is large or small can be arranged. The setting can be done as follows:
1. Two - three hours before the curse included, heating lamp must be lit in the breeding
2. Chicks aged 1 minngu 95 F
3. Chicks Age 2 weeks 90 F
4. Chicks Age 3 weeks 85 F
5. 4 week old chicks 80 F
So every week, lowered temperature 5 F or 3 C, up to an additional heater was no longer needed. Usually this warming may last 2-4 weeks. But it also depends on the environment.
In practice, measuring the heat with a thermometer is not practical. For more practical farmers pay sufficient attention to the behavior of these curses in breeding:
1. If the temperature is too hot sires, the curses will shun the heat source, they crammed jejal on edge.
2. Instead breeding temperature is too cold, they will come together and mutually huddled around the heat source.
3. If the ambient temperature was sufficient or appropriate, the curses will be spread evenly and actively foraging.
Broodstock temperature fluctuations due to unstable heat source is less than perfect, would greatly disturb the chicks alive. Temperatures too cold will cause chicks cold and did not want to eat, which eventually leads to death or sakit.Demikian also if the situation gets too hot, then the curse will always thirst, mouth always open and ultimately pain.
In areas like this where our country daytime temperatures ranging 80-85 F so if the curse had already reached the age of 2 weeks during the daytime heating could've been turned off. Later in the afternoon heat is switched on again. But even then, it really depends on the weather. This means that if a cold rainy day or even during the day, the heater should remain lit.
