Many ranchers who complained about the condition of their enclosures that give off odor, and get the protest from the surrounding environment. Not only that, the smell is caused by the smell of ammonia is also highly influential on the health of chickens that can cause respiratory irritation so that trigger the onset of respiratory diseases.
A lot of things that have been attempted by the breeder in solve this problem such as by replacing the husk (on stage enclosure) and often perform cleaning of chicken manure (on stage enclosure and bateray). However, the chicken Ranch is a commercial venture that solid economic calculations so that the replacement would be the husk that is too often and the hectic routine of cleaning the feces are valued less economical than also can cause stress on the chicken.
Well, before I explain how to deal with it in advance I will explain about some of the causes of the occurrence of a foul odor or smell foul on chicken farms.
Chicken manure that smells unpleasant generally come from a wet dirt, and dirt that dry generally does not cause the smell. Wet chicken droppings are usually referred to as wet droppin good. As for the factor-factor that caused the wet dropping this include:
Enclosure management. Failure to control temperature, humidity, and the density (density) of chickens in a cage will cause the chicken to face heat stress of chicken so more drinking than eating. As a result the stool issued more fluid consistency.
The high concentration of minerals such as sodium, potassium, magnesium, and chlorine can result in excessive water intake. In addition the use of feed formulations which are rich in fiber is mainly a source of feed material not starch carbohydrates (NSPs) can improve the bonding of food in the digestive tract so that more fluid comes out.
Feed that contains mold can trigger the onset of aflatoxin and other mycotoxin especially type T-2, so the impact on the digestive tract irritation as well as cause the occurrence of cases of wet dropping.
While that type of mycotoxin ochratoxin A, citrinin, and oosporin can cause changes in kidney function such as the onset of polyuria (excess urine production) so the stool gets wet which ultimately lowers feed intake.
Infectious germs such as bacteria, viruses, protozoa in the digestive tract causes irritation so that chickens be diarrhoea (dirt gets wet)
Feed not available enzymes to overhaul the structure of the feed so that the intestine is unable to absorb the perfectly ended up shit out still contains the feed. In addition to causing the smell it has also led to an increase in the value of FCR as food eaten does not diserpa up by the intestines
The use of antibiotics also cause dirt to become wetter. Not only wet but the dirt will come out along with the rest of the perfect terserna who does not feed resulted in occasional foul-smelling due to proteins in the feed that into a breeding ground of bacteria.
Prevention and proper handling will make the condition does not get worse. If the condition is left then the stench could risk a lot like FRC increased, complaints about kennels, chicken will be easy touches respiratory disease (because of the foul odor irritating to the respiratory tract), chicken becomes susceptible to pain because of her defense of the system decreases, the vaccine is not a maximum response etc.
