top of the day to you guys. i've seen cases people having problems with their poultry birds, the mortality rate got increased, birds are not eating the way they are supposed to eat different sickness and all.
i have researched, coupled with my experience with with birds so far and i noticed these birds actually want breathing space, i mean a very spacious environment, you cant just choke them in a cage or pen, allow air into their resident, same way we humans need air...
Birds well spaced out and enjoying the fresh air
when the birds are stil small they tend to cover little space because their body mass is still small, here, relative to the numbers of the bird they can still maintain a small area, but going to 4/5 weeks their body mass increase so also their pen or cage have to increase so as to allow air.
it should also noted that feathered birds emit heat because of the feathers covering their body.
in my own case i also space out their feeder and drinker so that they dont gather in a particuar area, i make sure they spread out keeping few distance apart.
