The growth performance and health of chicks can be significantly improved by a suitable microclimate in brooder houses. However, the microclimate of the chicken house is affected by factors such as its structure and the heat dissipation of chickens, making it is difficult to establish an accurate mathematical model and achieve effective regulation. In this paper, the environmental data acquisition system of enclosed chick brooder house was established by analyzing various environmental factors in brooder houses. According to the structural characteristics of brooder houses and the growth environment of chicks and other parameters, the microclimate simulation model of brooder houses was established using the physical law of energy balance. The coefficient of determination R (R-square) between simulated temperature and humidity output value and measured value was 0.7634 and 0.9740, respectively, and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) was 1.55°C and 2.61%, respectively. The correctness of the simulation model was verified. On the basis of established microclimate models, a simulation model of fuzzy decoupling Proportion Integration Differentiation (PID) control in chicken house environments was established for the strong coupling between temperature control and general risk control system in chicken houses. Different control strategies were generated by fuzzy and logical reasoning about multiple environmental factors. The compensation coefficient was added to optimize the environmental regulation system of brooder houses. The temperature maximum deviation between the set value and the fuzzy decoupling PID controller was 0.5°C, the maximum relative error was 2.7%, the maximum deviation of relative humidity between the set value and the fuzzy decoupling PID controller was 4.93%, the maximum relative error was 10.49%.The simulation results show the control strategy meets the temperature and humidity control requirements, verify the effectiveness of the control strategy and model. The experimental results can guide the actual environmental control of brooder houses.

The effect of feeding spray dried porcine plasma (SDPP) to male turkeys during the first 4 weeks of life was evaluated at 20 weeks of age. A total of 648 male Hybrid Converter day-old turkeys were divided into two groups of 9 replicate pens of 36 birds each, and fed a commercial-type program of 7 diet phases. In phase 1 birds were fed a corn-soybean meal Control diet for 4 weeks, or a diet with 2% SDPP of similar nutrient density.

This study conducted a four-month monitoring of carbapenem resistance in a broiler breeding farm in China. A total of 185 carbapenem-resistant bacterial isolates were obtained from 2298 cloacal swabs from broiler breeders and their offspring within a production cycle. The detection rate of carbapenem-resistant isolates was higher during the brooding period.

This study evaluates the effect of prolonged feeding with a high inclusion level of Spirulina, combined with peptidases, on broiler chicken's growth performance, digesta viscosity, carcass attributes and meat quality. The experiment involved 120 male broilers divided into 40 battery brooders, each housing 3 birds. Post 7-day acclimatisation with a corn and soybean-based diet, the birds were provided with one of four diets: a corn and soybean meal-based diet (CON), a mix incorporating 15% Spirulina (SP), a Spirulina-rich mix supplemented with 0.

Background: This investigation assessed the effects of high dietary inclusion of Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) on broiler chicken growth performance, meat quality and nutritional attributes. For this, 120 male broiler chicks were housed in 40 battery brooders (three birds per brooder). Initially, for 14 days, a standard corn and soybean meal diet was administered.

Quail ( genus) game farms were characterised in Spain using variables related to their age, geographical distribution, farmed species, structure, size, and commercialisation, using a survey conducted on 21 farms in 2018. It was found that 38.1% of the sample represented complete-cycle farms, and 61.
