2 · Predict
The twin expects about twice as much water as feed, by weight, for birds this age.
3 · Rehearse
Crews often catch at night because birds are calmer in the dark. In a deep cold snap, the twin shows what that costs.
Transit deaths from a study of 5,184 broiler loads in Atlantic Canada and Quebec: 0.37% at 0 °C, 0.69% at −15 °C, 2.19% at −35 °C. The extra loss for long waits is illustrative.
Talk to the twin
In the barn this is a 30-second voice note. In this demo, tap a sample or type. Logging a reading updates the twin for the day you’re on.
Mirror: a live copy of the barn from the water meter, the controller and the farmer’s barn walk. Predict: water and deaths against what this flock should show, and tonight’s air. Rehearse: test a change on the twin first. When a farmer logs an ammonia reading, the twin compares it with its own estimate and recalibrates.
3D barn: drawn in the browser with three.js from the same model. Fans switch on in steps of about 15,000 m³/h, heaters glow with their output, inlets open with the fresh-air rate, drinker and feeder lines rise as birds grow, and each bird mark stands for about 4 to 5 birds.
