If you buy a hen and raise it, here are a few things to pay attention to:
Provide a suitable habitat: Provide a spacious, dry, ventilated, bright and safe place for the hen. The habitat is preferably provided with shade and shelter from rain. You can choose to build a simple chicken coop or keep your hens in cages in your yard.
Prepare appropriate feed: Hens need to eat balanced feed, including protein, carbohydrates and other nutrients. You can choose to buy feed specifically for hens, or mix your own feed. At the same time, fresh water and an appropriate amount of feed can be provided to the hens.
Regular cleaning and disinfection: Keep the hen's habitat clean and sanitary, and regularly replace the chicken coop litter and pebbles to avoid the growth of germs . At the same time, pay attention to cleaning chicken feces to avoid odor and mosquitoes.
Regularly check the health status of the hens: Regularly check the health status of the hens, including checking their complexion, mental state, appetite, abdominal swelling, diarrhea and other symptoms. If any abnormalities are found, timely measures should be taken and veterinary help should be sought.
Keep an eye on hatching and collecting eggs: If you want to hatch eggs, provide the hens with adequate ovarian stimulation, appropriate temperature and humidity conditions. At the same time, regularly check the eggs in the chicken coop for timely collection.
