Birds, like any live being, like the natural air movement. The temperature varies from season to season and also on daily basis. Sudden rise or fall makes the life distressed. The living body adjusts to these fluctuations. some help like adding to the speed of the airflow or cooling by sprinkling water helps the live birds to adjust faster. Hence open sided houses with natural air movement is the best for the live animals/ birds. Depending on the prevailing environment, the hoses should be designed in width ( too wide houses block cross air movement), side height, Roof ventilation, and area per bird.
We close the houses against the nature and get in to trouble of "providing comfort". We spend 4 or 5 times more money on the closed house compared to the open sided house. The provider of the house (seller) recomends more number of birds per house to offset the cost per bird. This adds additional technical load on the owner to provide artificial ventilation, volume, volume per bird, inlet management and outlet management beside the power required to run to system.
The farmer is purchasing a closed house (trouble) with money, runs them at a high cost, bears the depreciation of items involved and worries about the breaks in running the house.
Let the farmer and the birds enjoy the nature and make them learn to adjust to the nature.
