The humidity of chickens in chicken cages is also one of the important conditions for brooding, but chicken farmers generally don't pay enough attention to it. The humidity in the brooding house is generally expressed by relative humidity. The higher the relative humidity, the more humid the air; the lower the relative humidity, the drier the air.

After the chicks come out of their shells, they enter the brooding house. If the air humidity is too low, the water in the chicks will be released through breathing, which is not conducive to the absorption of the remaining yolk in the chicks, and the growth of the chicks' feathers will also be blocked. Once drinking is given to the chicks, the chicks often diarrhea due to drinking too much water.

Appropriate humidity requirements: 60%-65% before 10 days of age, and then drop to 55%-60%. In the early stage of brooding, due to the dry litter, the house often exhibits high temperature and low humidity, which can easily cause increased water loss in the body of the chicks, loss of appetite, frequent drinking, dry hair and brittle hair, and dry toes. In addition, being too dry can easily lead to dusty and cause respiratory and digestive tract diseases. Therefore, attention must be paid to the supplement of water in the house at this stage. You can spray water on the aisles or walls in the house for humidification, or place a basin or kettle on the stove to boil water to generate steam to increase the humidity in the house. After 10 days of age, the chicks develop very quickly, gain weight, feed intake, water intake, breathing capacity and excretion are increasing day by day, and the temperature in the house gradually drops, especially in the midsummer and rainy seasons, which are prone to excessive humidity. . The chicks are not adapted to the humid environment. The low temperature and high humidity in the brooding house will aggravate the adverse effects of the low temperature on the chicks. The chicks will feel colder or even tremble with cold. At this time, they are prone to various respiratory diseases; When the internal temperature and humidity are high, the water evaporation and body heat emission of the chicks will be blocked, and the chicks will feel more stuffy and uncomfortable. The chicks are prone to coccidiosis and aspergillosis. Therefore, during the period of raising chickens in chicken cages, attention should be paid to changing litter frequently, strengthening ventilation, and preventing water from spilling on the ground or litter when adding drinking water.
