It is a good idea to have a good understanding of the quality of the materials used in the construction of the roof (<em>hatchery<\/em>) until the end of the maintenance period (harvest).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>High DOC mortality rates can be caused by poor management of DOC admissions. The death rate and&nbsp;<em>culling&nbsp;<\/em>the high one, of course, entails losses for the breeder. Therefore, losses arising from this need to be prevented by proper DOC admission management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Preparation for reception DOC<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Means and prasana should be ready before the reception of the DOC.

The rest period of the cage cannot be shortened and must be applied at least 14 days after the cage is clean to break the seeds of diseases in the cage. The outside Area of the cage should also be clean of weeds and standing water. Make sure the cage is clean and disinfected the inside and outside of the cage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the cage is sterile, preparation of equipment is carried out.

Some factors that affect the comfort of the chicken include :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ventilation or air<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The air in the cage required for maintenance consists of the amount of air, temperature, humidity and air velocity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.

The required humidity in the cage is about 50% -60%. The minimum air velocity at DOC is 0.3-0.5 m\/s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Availability of feed and drinking places<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The plan for giving the number of feeders and drinking places must be determined based on the chicken population so that the chicks can get the appropriate amount of feed and there is no competition or scramble for feed and drinking water. Cache checking or&nbsp;<em>crop&nbsp;<\/em>it is necessary to find out whether the stocked chickens get enough feed and drinking water. This check is done about 4-5 hours after stocking the DOC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"325\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/SUP-4-2.jpg\" alt=\"adequacy of feeding place\" class=\"wp-image-80941\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/SUP-4-2.jpg 325w, https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/SUP-4-2-300x249.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/SUP-4-2-14x12.jpg 14w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 325px) 100vw, 325px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Drinking water and feed quality<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Apart from the availability of feed and drinking places, the quality of drinking water and feed must also be considered. Drinking water quality can affect the consumption of drinking water chickens. The poor quality of drinking water is mainly seen physically (clarity and color of water), bacteriology, and chemistry. Feed should also be able to meet the needs of chickens in terms of quality. Breeders need to conduct feed quality control. The easiest quality control can be done by using the five senses to identify the color, texture, shape of the particles and the presence of contamination of other materials. Feed quality control can also be carried out in&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/en\/services\/laboratory\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"740\">MediLab<\/a><\/strong> to ensure the nutritional content of feed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5.&nbsp;<em>Litter<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Function&nbsp;<em>litter&nbsp;<\/em>is as an insulator of the floor and as a heater, absorbs moisture from manure, reduces ammonia and keeps the soles of chicken feet.

The light intensity should be uniform in all areas of the cage.
