I want to use this medium to greet all great Hivers. How has been your day so far, hope you are all doing good? I'm positive minded that it's all well and fine.
One of the major activities that takes place in the poultry farm is vaccination. Vaccination stands as one of the major importance when running a poultry farm. In fact, without vaccination; I don't think one can run a poultry farm smoothly without any issue. Vaccination in poultry farm in Nigeria seems like a doctrine that must be followed in order to have a well accomplished harvest at the end of the day. Even the way I'm emphasizing vaccination in this context shows how important it's in the poultry farm.
Let me chop in this before I go further, if you rear some group of broiler birds without vaccination and any mortality, you need to count yourself one of the luckiest person earth. But then, there are two kind of vaccinations that are giving to Broiler birds; gumboro and lasota strain. Take note that one is has important as the other. Both are giving on two different occasions within four weeks.
What's vaccination in the poultry farm and the best time to administer it?
- What's vaccination?
Vaccination process is an activity that's perform in the poultry farm on broiler birds to curb any dangerous that can cause any kind of mortality on the birds. I can mention diseases like Newcastle disease, bursal infectious disease, gastrointestinal disease etc. And there different methods of administering vaccination on the birds; by oral method, broadcasting method and injection method.
- Best time to administer the vaccine on the birds.
One of the confusing thing that people encounter when they want to vaccinate is they are not sure if the best period or time to vaccinate the birds. Some people even feel it's safe to vaccinate birds anytime they like ad of which it's not. The first sign of noticing the best period yo vaccinate bird is during cool or cold time is when we visit veterinary store to buy the vaccine. You will discover that you are giving with an ice block to maintain the degree it's before it's administered.
So it's important that these vaccination proceess are done;
- carefully
- When the weather is friendly;early in the morning or late at night
- When it's not sunny so that the live vaccinate won't die before and during the process of administering the vaccine.
