The humidity in the cage will affect the temperature the chickens feel. The higher the humidity, the temperature the chicken feels is also higher. Conversely, chickens will feel cooler temperatures than ambient temperatures when humidity is low. The modifications that can be done to make the chicken comfortable, namely :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Make&nbsp;<em>database<\/em>&nbsp;temperature and humidity in the barn<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Easy language, recording of temperature and humidity in the cage in the morning, afternoon, evening, night and early morning. Including the response of chickens when recording, whether there is&nbsp;<em>panting<\/em>. From here it will be seen a summary of the ideal temperature and humidity range where it does not occur&nbsp;<em>panting<\/em>. So when the temperature or humidity exceeds the ideal range, you can act immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In one cage, there are at least 3-5 points to measure temperature and humidity, namely the front, middle, back, top (near the tiles) and the floor of the cage. To make it easier and faster in the observation place&nbsp;<em>thermohygrometer<\/em>&nbsp;in every cage. For the cage&nbsp;<em>brooder<\/em>, hang a&nbsp;<em>thermohygrometer<\/em>&nbsp;at&nbsp;<em>chick guard&nbsp;<\/em>while&nbsp;<em>u<\/em>to the post office without&nbsp;<em>brooder<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>thermohygrometer<\/em>&nbsp;placed in the center of the cage at a height of 40-60 cm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"513\" height=\"509\" src=\"https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/KT02-3.jpg\" alt=\"thermohygrometer\" class=\"wp-image-82656\" style=\"width:292px;height:auto\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/KT02-3.jpg 513w, https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/KT02-3-300x298.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/KT02-3-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/KT02-3-12x12.jpg 12w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 513px) 100vw, 513px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Density setting<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A cage that is too dense will increase the temperature of the cage. Adjust the density and expand the cage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Management open close curtains good ventilation system, very effective to lower the temperature in the cage. Open the cage curtain when the temperature rises. When the wind blows strongly or the temperature drops, the cage curtain can be lowered, provided that the top of the curtain remains open 20-30 cm wide so that air circulation is maintained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Fan additions<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cages that are too wide and dense or livestock areas that have less wind speed, it is recommended to add a fan. Fans can be installed in the middle, end or side of the enclosure. The speed at which the fan expels air also needs to be adjusted. For adult chickens, it is recommended that no more than 2.5 m\/sec. while for&nbsp;<em>brooding period,<\/em>, not more than 0.3-0.6 m\/sec. It should also be noted that the wind should not directly hit the body of the chicken (at least it is installed 20-30 cm from the floor).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. Artificial rain or fog system<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The artificial rain system is carried out outside the cage while the artificial fog is carried out inside the cage. Its function is to lower the temperature when the weather starts to feel hot, around 10.00-14.00. If it is turned on when it is hot (11.30-12.30) it will cause a high temperature change so that the chicken can get more stressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6. Modified cage construction<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have more funds, we recommend to reconstruct the cage. Ideally the height of the cage is 1.5-2 meters with a distance between the cages is 1 x the width of the cage. The roof of the tile is recommended because it can retain heat so that the cage is cooler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>7. Administration of vitamins and electrolytes<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vitamins C and E will help suppress the effect\u00a0<em>heat stress<\/em>\u00a0or\u00a0<em>cold stress<\/em>. Electrolytes will maintain electrolyte balance in the chicken&#039;s body.\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medion.co.id\/en\/produk\/vita-stress\/\" data-type=\"product_post\" data-id=\"2981\">Vita Stress<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>can be a solution that provides both.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bapak Mohammad Syamsuddin Makassar \u2013 Sulawesi Selatan Bagaimanakah cara mengurangi kelembapan dalam kandang&nbsp;open house&nbsp;untuk peternakan&nbsp;broiler?
