You have noticed a group of students having their hands –on activity in animal
production, right? Today, animal production includes raising poultry like chicken,
ducks, and other animals related to poultry using personal protective equipment.
Animal husbandry is the science that deals with the production and
management of livestock and also domestic animals.
So, today we will learn all about the personal protective equipment clean and
disinfect poultry house.
Are you ready?
Do you know what is the personal protective equipment in poultry raising?
Look at the table below then answer column 2.

What Is It

Poultry farming is the practice of raising feathered animals, such as

chickens, turkeys, ducks, and geese, as a subcategory of animal husbandry, for the
purpose of brooding and growing chicks. Brooding refers to the period immediately
after hatch with best care and treatment must be given to chicks to ensure their
health and survival.
A newly hatched chick cannot regulate its body temperature properly for the
first few weeks and it is subject to chilling. When heat is not provided from external
sources, the chicks will not take enough feeds and water and this leads to the
retardation of growth and poor development of internal organs, responsible for
digestions, thus the chick will not be able to digest the yolk completely.

Brooding can be classified into Natural and Artificial brooding.

1. Natural Brooding- chicks are reared and cared with the help of broody
hens after hatching up to 3-4 weeks of age.
2. Artificial Brooding- chicks are reared and cared in the poultry house in
the absence of a broody hen..Artificial brooding is to provide the right temperature for
the chicks.
Factors to consider when brooding chicks:
Before receiving the chick, the following must be prepared:
1. Brooding house must be cleaned before receiving the bird.
2. Soak the floor preferable with a strong disinfectant to protect the bird.
3. Curtains used should be soaked in disinfectant and hanged in the sun to
dry to give protection to the bird.
4. To protect the bird, feeding troughs and drinkers should be washed and
disinfected.
5. All equipment must be arranged in the brooding house.
6. Foot baths should be provided always at the entrance with a disinfectant.
Temperature, air quality, humidity and light are factors to consider for a
successful brooding. Failure to provide the adequate environment during the
brooding period will lessen the profitability, growth and development, less feed
conversion, and increased disease, condemnation and mortality.
Thus, Personal Protective Equipment is very important to everyone especially
if you are in the farm to protect yourself from any harm.

The table below shows the uses of the following PPE.

Hand gloves Used to protect the hands from any infection
Long pants To protect your legs from insect bite.
boots To protect your feet from any harm from the ground
respirator To protect your nose or respiratory from dust.
coverall To protect your body from any form of hazard
hat To protect your head from heat of the sun and rain.

Ways of Cleaning and Disinfecting the Poultry House

1. Dry cleaning- sweep or blow dust in the poultry house and other loose dirt of
ceilings, light fixtures, walls, cages, or net boxes, fans, air inlet etc. onto the floor.
2. Wet cleaning- is done in three steps: soaking, washing and rinsing. Warm or hot
water will do a better job in cleaning getting through organic matter than cold water.
3. Soaking- soak the heavily soiled areas thoroughly in the poultry house.
4. Washing- wash every surface of the of the poultry house to remove dirt especially
window sills, ceiling trusses, wall sills and any surface where dirt and dust stays.
5. Rinsing- a final rinse immediately after washing is highly recommended to
remove any harmful residues from the poultry house.
6. Drying- air dry the poultry house thoroughly if disinfection cannot immediately
follow rinsing.
7. Repairs- make any repairs to the structure of the brooding house before the final
disinfection step
8. Disinfecting- this is the crucial step which the small flock owner must always
remember.

Get ready learners. This time show to me that you know the lesson. Answer the
question below.
What’s More
TRUE OR FALSE: Write true if the statement is correct and if it is false write capital
M. Write your answer on a separate sheet of paper.
________1. Make any repairs to the structure prior to the final disinfection step.
________2. Disinfectant should be applied only before cleaning the building and
equipment.
________3. Thoroughly air- dry the building if disinfection cannot follow rinsing.

What Is It

Farmers or animal raiser are the living heroes in our society: they provide us
with foods through domesticated animals they raised in the farm. It is not easy to
become a farmer. You need to wake up early in the morning and do your work. Work
can make easier and faster if we have tools, materials and equipment to be used.
Heaters or brooders
1. Charcoal stove/ kerosene stove- these are used in places where electricity
is not available or costly and where power interruption is quite common. This
stove is covered with plates or pans to sustain the heat in the brooding area.
2. Gas Brooder- natural gas, LPG or methane is used and connected to heating
element which is hanged 3 to 5 feet above the bird to provide heat. It is
attached with canopy- type reflectors to reflect heat towards the chicks in the
poultry.
3. Electrical brooder is thermostatically controlled heating system that spread
required amount of heat uniformly above large area, this avoid crowding of
chicks under brooder directly. One electrical brooder can be used for 300 to
400 chicks in the poultry.
4. Infra -red bulbs-is a self- reflecting bulb and hence no need of reflector over
the bulbs.150 and 250 watts bulbs are used to provide enough heat to the
chicks in the poultry house.
5. Reflectors/hovers- these reflectors are called hovers. These reflectors of
heat and light are used for the chicks in the poultry house.
Feeding Equipment:
Feeders are equipment in the poultry house used to feed the bird, by placing
feed in them. These can be conventional, semi-automatic of various designs
and shapes and made up of either metal or plastic.
Different feeding Equipment :
1. Automatic feeder- the feeds is supplied to the entire length of the poultry
by specially designed feed troughs with auger type or chain type devices
to move the feed from the feed bins to the other end.
2. Linear feeder-different sizes of linear feeder with guards are available.
These feeders are usually made of galvanized iron.
3. Circular feeder- this type of equipment are semi-automatic feeders and
can hold 5 to 7 kg feed in its cone at a time.
4. Shell grit box-it is used to provide shell grit to the layer bird as a
supplemental source of calcium needed by the bird.
Water Equipment
1. Water softeners and filters- in this type of equipment, water with high
total dissolved solids will cause deposits on the humidity controls, spray nozzles, jets
and valve seats, so this equipment is needed in the poultry house.
2. Water heaters- hot water is important for operating most hatchery tray
washers and for general clean up. A large capacity boiler is generally used to
provide hot water.
15
Watering Equipment
1. Pan and jar type- this type of waterer for chick is circular in shape, having
two compartments.
2. Water basin made of plastic/wood/ GI with grill- a separate grill is made
to prevent the entry of birds inside the water.
3. Bell type automatic waterer- this type of waterer are made of high- impact
plastic in a bell shape usually suspended from separate pipeline for the
purpose of supplying water to the birds.
4. Nipple drinkers- these drinkers look like a nipple, when pressed water
comes out from the nipple.
5. Manual drinker- they also referred as fountain drinkers because water
comes out of the holes and flows like that in case of a fountain.

equipment, so, identify the uses and function of each tool and equipment
