Hanging chicken trough

Hanging chicken trough is a common chicken farming equipment. The following is an introduction to it:

characteristic

Space saving: Installed in the chicken coop by hanging, it does not occupy ground space, making the space inside the coop more fully utilized, especially suitable for chicken coops with limited space.

Prevent tipping over: Compared with the food trough placed on the ground, the hanging chicken trough is less likely to be knocked over by the chicken flock, which can maintain the stability of the trough and reduce feed waste.

Reducing pollution: Hanging up the food trough can prevent chickens from kicking feces, debris, etc. into the trough during feeding, reducing the probability of feed contamination and helping to maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of the feed.

Convenient height adjustment: The hanging height of the feeding trough can be flexibly adjusted according to the growth stage and body size of the chicken, so that the chicken can comfortably feed, improve feeding efficiency, and reduce feed waste.

material

Plastic material: such as PP engineering plastic, which has the advantages of light weight, corrosion resistance (based on actual reports), drop resistance, and relatively low price. It is easy for farmers to transport and install, and the surface is smooth, not easy to leave feed residue, and easy to clean.

Stainless steel material: It has good practicality, is not easily damaged, can withstand the pecking and collision of chickens, and has strong corrosion resistance (based on actual reports). It is also not easy to rust in humid environments, has good hygiene performance, and is easy to clean, but its cost is relatively high.

Bull tendon material: It has a tough texture and can maintain flexibility even in low temperature environments. It will not become hard or brittle at -20 ℃, has good resistance to falls, is not easily damaged, has a long service life, and also has good corrosion resistance (based on actual reports) and wear resistance (based on actual reports).

type

Long hanging trough: Generally, the trough length is between 1-2 meters, with a certain gap between the round wooden stick and the trough for the chicken head to enter and feed. The two sides of the trough are usually lined with eaves to prevent the chicken from squatting and resting. It is suitable for ground free range or cage raised chicken flocks and can meet the needs of multiple chickens feeding at the same time.

Automatic feeding suspended food trough: It has the function of automatic feeding, with a large amount of feeding at once, without the need for manual frequent feeding, making it convenient for management and use. The arched design in the middle of the chassis facilitates the flow of feed, and the inclined design of the feeding trough makes it easy for leakage and backflow, which can save some feed and reduce losses. It is suitable for large-scale chicken farms.

Segmented splicing hanging trough: It is composed of multiple standard length trough segments spliced together through buckles or connectors, which can be flexibly combined according to the size of the chicken coop and the number of chickens in the flock, extending the length of the trough. Installation and disassembly are relatively convenient, and single segment cleaning time is reduced compared to integral type, making maintenance easier.

Key points for installation and use

Installation height: Generally speaking, it is advisable for the upper edge of the feeding trough to be about 2 centimeters higher than the back of the chicken. The height difference between the early and late stages of chicken breeding is significant, so the installation height of the breeding trough should be adjusted according to the height of the mid stage chicken breeding.

Hanging position: It should be selected in a dry, ventilated, and well lit place inside the chicken coop, avoiding direct sunlight and rainwater. At the same time, it is necessary to ensure that the environment around the trough is clean and hygienic to prevent contamination of the feed.

Regular inspection and maintenance: Regularly check whether the suspension device of the food trough is secure, whether it is loose or damaged, and promptly repair or replace it. At the same time, it is necessary to regularly clean the food trough, remove residual feed, feces, and dirt, and maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of the trough.
