H. ANALYSIS

Thoughts to Ponder

Class let us consider a poultry house that some of you Ma’am many like feeders, waterers, pail,
have visited. Aside from chickens that you can see in the shovel, brooder, nest, perches, dropping board.
poultry house, what are other things that you can see?

I. ABSTRACTION

Since, everybody understand about the previous

lesson. So are you ready to talked the topic about
equipments and facilities in poultry Farming.
 Poultry farming

- raising of birds domestically or

commercially, primarily for meat and eggs but also
for feathers. Chickens, turkeys, ducks, and geese are
of primary importance, while guinea
fowl and squabs (young pigeons) are chiefly of local
interest. This article treats the principles and
practices of poultry farming. For a discussion of
the food value and processing
of poultry products, see egg and poultry processing.

Lets go to the equipments in Poultry Production

1. Incubators
Incubators are devices used for ensuring the safe and
productive hatching of eggs. An incubator is a machine used
to simulate avian incubation by keeping eggs warm at a
particular temperature range and in the correct humidity with
a turning mechanism to hatch them. It takes 21 days to hatch
a chicken egg. There are varying types of incubators in terms
of sizes, the possible number of eggs, and the method of
operation.

2. Brooders
A brooder is a heated structure that provides warmth
for chicks. Research has shown that chicks that are subjected
to cold temperatures have impaired immune and digestive
systems. As a result, cold-stressed chicks have reduced growth
and increased susceptibility to diseases. It is imperative to
provide heat for the chick. There are brooders that regulate
heat and ensure optimum temperature.
3. Chicken Cages
The type of cage is dependent on factors like the system
of production (open system or deep litre system do not
require cages.) and the type of bird (layers are more suitable
for battery cages). Cages are structured with either wood or
iron rods and they come in various sizes and structures.

 Broiler Battery Cages: The broiler battery

cages are semi-automatic models designed for clean and
convenient brooding within limited land spaces. They
come with all the required water accessories and adjoining
parts. The cages are suitable for all kinds of poultry chicks
as well as mature birds in an all-in-all-out intensive
management system.

 Layer Battery Cage: This system for layers is

a type of intensive poultry housing system in which
chickens are kept in compartment units. This system is
called the battery cage system because it involves the
arrangement of similarly-looking cages in rows and
columns. What differentiates the layers’ battery cage from
most other cages is that its floors slope from back to front.
The reason for this is so that eggs can roll from the back to
the front of the cage for easy collection.

4. Transport Crates
For ease of transportation, there are enclosed boxes
that are called “transport crates”. They are useful for the
purpose of transferring birds from one place to another
especially from hatcheries to farms.

5. Feeders and Drinkers

The regular supply of feed and water to birds is a
 very important factor that determines their level of
production. The system of production also affects the type of
feeding and drinking equipment a farmer will go for. There
are various types of feeders and drinkers, some are hangable
while some are automatic.

 Poultry Feeders are containers from which

poultry birds feed. They hold the feed of the chickens
and provide a secure environment for them to eat
without wastage.

 Nipple Drinkers are designed to assist and

provide the poultry birds with clean drinking water.
This type of drinker is a three-in-one drinker consisting
of the nipple, clip, and drip cup. They can be used for
broilers, breeders, and layers.

 Bell Drinkers are used in supplying water

sufficiently to poultry birds groomed with the deep
litter system- from day-old chicks to matured chickens.

6. Vaccination Equipment
There is equipment that is used to administer
vaccines and drugs to farm birds. Intravenous injectors
are very common in poultry farms.

7. Debeaking Machine

Debeaking is a term in poultry that refers to the act of

 reducing the length of a bird’s beak, especially layers
and turkey for several reasons. It is also called beak
trimming or beak conditioning. There are two types of
debeaking equipment, the infrared debeaking machine and
the hot blade debeaking machine.

8. Poultry Processing Equipment

Processing equipment comes to play in the packaging
value chain in poultry production. There is equipment that
is useful for the purpose of slaughtering, defeathering and
packaging matured poultry birds in an efficient way.

9. Egg Crates
Egg crates are peculiar to layers and they are useful
for the purpose of transferring and storing eggs from
poultry.
