1. Weaning ducklings breeding technology?The temperature for the first three days of brooding is 30-32 degrees. Starting from the fourth day, depending on the situation of the ducklings, the temperature can be adjusted down by 0.5-1 degree every day to ensure that the indoor temperature is around 20-22 degrees at the end of brooding. Since it is winter brooding, the indoor temperature depends on the temperature and the weaning time will be appropriately delayed. As for temperature, the most important thing is to keep it stable. It should not fluctuate too high or too low. The temperature should be adjusted appropriately according to the performance of the ducklings. Ducklings huddle together close to the heat source, with their down standing upright, their bodies curled up, and they often make sharp cries, indicating that the temperature is too low. The ducklings are away from the heat source, panting with their mouths open, their back feathers are wet, their water intake increases, and their feed intake decreases, indicating that the temperature is too high. 2. Duckling breeding technology and water feeding method?Make preparations before raising ducklings First, prepare enough fresh and high-quality complete feed. Secondly, the brooding room, feeding utensils and necessary facilities should be fully equipped to ensure that every duckling can eat feed and drink water. Thirdly, the brooding room, feeding utensils, etc. should be disinfected with 2% caustic soda water, and then rinsed with clean water after drying. Finally, the brooding room should be fumigated and disinfected. 3. Drink water first and then feed Ducklings do not feel hungry after hatching. 24 hours after hatching, the ducklings’ down has dried, and they are active and lively. They often make “quack” sounds and start to move and peck at each other. At this time, they should be fed water before feeding. If the ducklings are mentally tired, their eyes are half open and half closed, and they are unwilling to move, it is past the time to feed. Feeding ducklings too early can easily damage their digestive organs and affect their health; feeding ducklings too late can cause insufficient nutrition, which is not conducive to their growth and development. Therefore, the best time to feed ducklings is between 14 and 24 hours after hatching. Drink water before eating. Adding an appropriate amount of glucose or vitamin C to drinking water can promote gastrointestinal motility, clean the stomach, promote metabolism, accelerate the absorption of remaining egg yolk, increase appetite, and strengthen physical fitness. If 1‰ potassium permanganate is added to drinking water, it can also play a role in gastrointestinal disinfection. 4. Master the feeding method and frequency The digestive function of ducklings is not perfect, so when feeding ducklings, do not feed too much each time. Only feed them until they are 60% to 70% full. If they are fed too much at one time, it will easily cause indigestion. Ducklings have a small gastrointestinal volume and digestion speed. If they are fed too little and the ducklings are hungry for a long time, it will affect their growth and development. Under the condition of free feeding, the chyme of ducklings within 14 days can reach the duodenum in 5 minutes, and the excretion starts in 2 hours and is emptied in 4 hours. If the interval between feedings exceeds 4 hours, the ducklings will be in a hungry state. Generally speaking, the smaller the ducklings are, the less they eat, and the more times they are fed. In the early stage of brooding, it is necessary to add feed frequently and feed less, feed 6-8 times a day, and feed 1-2 times at night to encourage the ducklings to move. 3. How to raise ducklings?Ducklings have weak digestive ability and low resistance, but they grow and develop rapidly, so it is important to do a good job of feeding and management to ensure the health and survival rate of ducklings. So how to raise ducklings? What issues should be paid attention to? The following will introduce the breeding methods of ducklings. 1. Disinfection of brooding room Ducklings have low resistance and are easily harmed by pathogens, so the brooding room and feeding utensils should be disinfected with 2% caustic soda water, and then rinsed with clean water after drying before they can be used for ducklings. Finally, the brooding room should be fumigated and disinfected. 2. Drink water before eating Ducklings do not feel hungry after hatching. 24 hours after hatching, the ducklings’ down has dried up. At this time, they should be fed with water before eating. You can add an appropriate amount of glucose or vitamin C to the drinking water to promote gastrointestinal motility and enhance physical fitness. Or you can add 1‰ potassium permanganate to disinfect the stomach and intestines. 3. Feeding method and frequency The digestive function of ducklings is not perfect, so when feeding ducklings, do not feed too much each time, only feed 60% to 70% full. In the early stage of brooding, add feed frequently and feed less, feed 6-8 times a day, and add 1-2 night meals to encourage ducklings to move. 4. Stocking density grouping The stocking density of ducklings should be appropriate. Too high a stocking density will cause dampness in the duck house, polluted air, and poor growth of ducklings. Too low a density will waste resources such as space and manpower, and reduce efficiency. Online brooding density: 25-30 ducks/m2 for 1-7 days, 15-25 ducks/m2 for 8-14 days, 10-15 ducks/m2 for 15-21 days, and 8-10 ducks/m2 for 22-28 days. The ground brooding density should be reduced by half. Grouping is generally based on 200-300 ducks per group. 5. Temperature and humidity management In the early stage of brooding, there is usually a 100W bulb every 3 meters. The eyesight of ducklings is weak, and too low light affects their eating. The humidity during brooding is generally controlled between 60% and 70%. Too dry ducklings are prone to dehydration, and too high humidity can easily cause wet feathers and low temperature for ducklings, which can easily cause ducklings to gather and be crushed to death. 6. Do a good job in disease prevention and control Do a good job in immunization against duck plague, duck viral hepatitis, duck infectious serositis, and avian influenza. Focus on preventing E. coli, salmonella, and mycoplasma diseases in ducklings, and use antibacterial drugs for prevention from 1 to 7 days old, but be sure to use sensitive drugs. Ducklings are much more difficult to manage than adult ducks in terms of their ability to adapt to the environment and their eating habits. However, in order to effectively ensure the survival rate of ducklings, the above-mentioned breeding methods and management matters must not be missed. 4. Duckling hatching technology?1. Preparation before incubation (1) Check the incubator and conduct a test run. Observe the operation of the motor, temperature/humidity controller, alarm, ventilation, egg turning and other systems. The test run time is 3 days. (2) Calibrate the temperature inside the incubator. Use a human body thermometer to measure the temperature of the top, middle, bottom, front, back, left, right, inside and outside of the incubator. The temperature difference between the various parts of the incubator should be less than 0.2°C. If it is not, find the cause and wait until it is properly adjusted before incubating. (3) Cleaning and disinfection. After each batch of chicks has hatched, the incubator, egg trays, and the inside and outside of the hatchery should be thoroughly cleaned, rinsed, and disinfected. 2. Preheating, sterilizing and incubating eggs 3. Heating and temperature regulation 4. Temperature control 5. Humidity control 6. Turning eggs 7. Cooling eggs 8. Watering and adding vinegar 9. Candling eggs 10. Transferring eggs to trays 11. Hatching eggs 12. Cleaning and disinfecting trays 1. Temperature and humidity: In the early stage of incubation (1-15 days), the temperature in the incubator should be controlled between 38.5°C and 38°C, and in the middle stage (16-30 days), it should be controlled between 38°C and 37.5°C. The humidity should be 60% in the early stage of incubation, 50% in the middle stage, and 60%-70% in the late stage and when hatching. 2. Turn the eggs: Turn the eggs more often, every 2.5 hours, at an angle of 180°, and turn the eggs manually twice a day. 3. Cooling eggs: You don’t need to cool the eggs in the early stage of incubation, but you can cool the eggs once a day in the middle stage and 3-4 times a day in the later stage. 4. Water spraying: From the middle of incubation to hatching, spray the eggs once with 35°C warm water when they are cooling down. After they are dried, put them into the machine to continue incubation. 5. Ventilation: The incubator should have an electric fan with ventilation holes to ensure uniform temperature and air circulation inside the machine. This is especially important in the middle and late stages of incubation. If necessary, slightly open the door. 6. Assisted production: The broiler ducklings will hatch after 35 days of incubation. Those with difficulty in hatching should be artificially broken to increase the hatching rate. 7. In spring, summer and autumn, you can also use solar hot water bag heat source electric incubator, which only costs 2 cents per day for every 1,000 eggs. 5. What is the correct breeding method for Muscovy ducklings?1. To raise chicks well, we should first pay attention to the environmental sanitation and disinfection of the brooding room, and clean, wash and overhaul the duck house and its equipment. The purpose is to minimize the microorganisms in the environment as much as possible to ensure the suitability and stability of the environment in the house and effectively prevent other animals from entering. Spray or brush with lime water, alkaline water or other disinfectants, and it is best to disinfect the cleaned equipment and utensils in the sun. At the same time, prepare hard firewood, coal balls, small blowers and other necessary items to ensure that the temperature before the chicks can be burned. 2. Use formalin fumigation to disinfect (use 30 ml of formalin per 1m3 and 15 g of potassium permanganate for fumigation for 24 hours, then ventilate to disperse the smoke). Therefore, utensils, especially feeding troughs, should be cleaned with potassium permanganate water, and then air-dried for later use. 3. Temperature test and temperature adjustment should be completed 2 days before the arrival of chicks. The thermometer should be hung 10 cm away from the duck's back, and 5-6 thermometers should be hung for every 1,000 chicks in the brooding house. Lighting the fire in advance can dry the shed and remove moisture, and on the other hand, it can see whether the temperature can reach 32℃-34℃ and ensure the temperature stability. 4. For large-scale farms specializing in Muscovy duck breeding, it is best to build a "standardized Muscovy duck ecological scientific brooding production workshop" based on the Longwang Puzhuang Qiaoyun Waterfowl Farm to meet the poor environmental adaptability of Muscovy ducks after hatching. Once the environmental conditions are not suitable, it is difficult for ducklings to make perfect self-regulation, which will cause growth stunting or health impact, or even death. The adaptability of ducklings to the environment requires a gradual adaptation process, and generally the adaptability will be significantly improved after half a month. Therefore, the work in the early stage of brooding is very important. The Puzhuang standardized ecological brooding production workshop will put the shelled seedlings into the brooding workshop. When the air, temperature, humidity, air quality, disease prevention, feed, and quality are in the best state, the brooding survival rate is greatly improved, and the healthy chick rate reaches 98%. After two days of careful observation, the ducklings sent to the farmers are lively and healthy, have a large feed intake, strong disease resistance, are easy to feed, and are very popular among farmers. 5. The brooding temperature that cannot be ignored ① For the temperature control standard, please refer to the "Daily Report of Brooding Management Statistics of Xinzheng Yangfan Waterfowl Breeding Co., Ltd." ?Brooding temperature: Whether the temperature is suitable, in addition to observing with a thermometer, you can also observe the dynamic performance of the duck group. If the duck group is lively, has a good appetite, drinks water appropriately, has smooth and neat feathers, spreads out to rest on the ground after eating, stretches its legs, relaxes its neck, and lies quietly without making any sound, it means that the temperature is suitable; if the duck group lowers its head and shrinks its neck, often piles together, keeps drilling into the duck group from the outside and makes uneasy calls, or gets close to the heat source for heating, it means that the temperature is low and needs to be raised, otherwise it will cause crushing or suffocation and death over time. If it is away from the heat source, opens its mouth to breathe, and drinks more water, it means that the temperature is high and it needs to be cooled appropriately. ?Temperature control principle: "appropriate and balanced", appropriate means meeting the standards, the ducklings feel comfortable, and balanced means that the temperature must be gradually lowered as the age increases. The cooling should be stable, and the temperature should not be reduced drastically or fluctuate, otherwise it is easy to induce disease. It should also be noted that the temperature should not rise or fall sharply within a day. After 3 weeks, the chicks will have a certain degree of cold resistance. If the temperature is above 15°C, artificial heating is not necessary. The most critical part of temperature management is the first three days and the first week. There must be someone on duty day and night to take care of them carefully to prevent the temperature from getting out of control. This is also the main reason why Xinzheng Yangfan Waterfowl Breeding Co., Ltd. has made great efforts to build a "standardized ecological waterfowl brooding workshop" to ensure the quality and survival rate of chicks. In actual production practice, some farmers ignore the early insulation work, resulting in illness or death. Then, in the face of the casualties and losses caused, it is unscientific and unreasonable to simply push the responsibility to the hatchery. Why some farmers have no problems with the same batch of seedlings, while others have problems, which shows that different care and management produce different results. 6. How to raise egret ducklings?1. Duckling selection When selecting ducklings, it is best to choose active and strong ducklings. For those who are not active, listless, and too weak, do not keep them. If they are newly hatched ducklings, first check whether their eyes can be opened and whether they are bright, whether their mouths and limbs are rosy and smooth, and whether the nutritional conditions and hatching conditions are qualified. It is best to check whether the ducks have weak legs and other adverse symptoms. Once any abnormality is found, it is not advisable to select them. 2. Duck house preparation When introducing ducks, all the feeding pens to be used should be equipped, and the environment of the duck house should be cleaned, diluted with disinfectant and disinfected comprehensively, and then rinsed after drying, so that the ducklings can be used. If the environment of the duck house is extremely dirty and the ducklings themselves have weak resistance, they will be easily infected with diseases and their growth and development will be affected, and in severe cases, they will die. 3. Boil water and start eating Before feeding, ducklings should first be fed warm water. It is best to add an appropriate amount of vitamins and glucose to the drinking water, or drink 1% potassium permanganate solution, which can disinfect the ducklings' stomachs, promote gastrointestinal motility, speed up metabolism, increase appetite, and promote meconium excretion, which will lay a good foundation for future growth and development. When feeding, pay attention to feeding dry and wet feeds and different types of feeds together. Pay attention to feeding wet feeds for ducklings. Dry feeds are not easy to digest and will cause gastrointestinal discomfort. The ducklings' stomachs are watered and digest slowly, so the principle of eating small meals and frequent meals is adopted for feeding. Generally, they are fed once every three hours, and the amount of each feeding is one-tenth of the ducklings' body weight. As the ducklings grow, the number of feedings decreases and the amount of feeding increases. 4. Stocking density The stocking density of ducklings must be paid attention to. Generally, it is appropriate to raise 30-35 ducklings per square meter for ducklings under one week old, 25 ducklings per square meter for ducklings aged 15 days old, 15 ducklings per square meter after 20 days old, and 10 ducklings per square meter after one month old. It can also be adjusted according to seasonal changes. The density can be slightly increased in winter when the temperature is low, and it should be reduced in summer when the temperature is high. 7. How to raise geese with ducklings?1. Choose good seedlings. The quality of goslings directly affects the effect of brooding, so before brooding, goslings with good growth and development should be selected for fattening. Goslings in the early stage have poor body temperature regulation, and their digestive function and stress resistance are very weak, so it is necessary to strictly follow the relevant technology to do a good job in the key work of temperature, humidity, density, grouping, water, and food in the brooding stage to ensure the survival rate of goslings. ..................................... 2. Reasonable grouping. Each acre of forage can raise 100-120 commercial geese, but they must not be raised all at once. Otherwise, there will be a contradiction that the forage is too young for the geese to eat in the early stage, and the old geese cannot eat it in the later stage, so the groups must be divided reasonably. Generally, 20 goslings are raised per square meter after one week of age, and the number is reduced to 15 after 2 weeks of age, and then decreases successively to make the density of the goose group reasonable, to prevent backlogs and stacking, and to affect the normal growth of the geese. 3. Fattening feed. After 40-50 days of feeding in winter, the geese have grown their wings and weigh 2.5 kg. They can be fattened for 20-30 days with a high-energy, low-protein diet, and the weight of the geese can reach 5 kg. Reference feed formula: 35% corn, 30% flour, 20% rice bran or grass meal, 6.5% sorghum, 3% shell powder, 0.5% salt, 1% sand, and 4% bean dregs. 8. Are duckling farmers making money this year?1. In recent years, my country's duck production has been increasing, which means that market demand is also increasing. The market demand is rising year by year and the market conditions are good. 2. The growth cycle of ducks is not long, they are marketed quickly, and the duck meat is delicious and tastes good, so it is popular among consumers, so breeding them is still profitable. Breeding cost analysis 1. Breeding costs include ducklings, feed, duck house construction, labor, water and electricity, vaccines, equipment fees and other expenses. 2. If 3,000 ducks are raised, the price of ducklings is 1.5 yuan per duck, and the total cost is 4,500 yuan. The cost of feed per duck is about 22 yuan, and the total cost is about 66,000 yuan. The construction of the duck house, labor, water and electricity, vaccines, equipment fees, etc. are about 5,000 yuan, and the total breeding cost is about 76,000 yuan. Breeding profit analysis 1. The weight of ducks sold is about 6-7 jin. Based on the market price of 10 yuan/jin, the profit per duck is 60-70 yuan. The profit of 3,000 ducks is about 180,000-210,000 yuan. After deducting the cost, the net profit is about 100,000-130,000 yuan. 9. What is the difference between water duck seedlings and land duck seedlings?1. Different appearance The young of landlubber is relatively sturdy, with a large head with a reticulate corona, a short and thick neck, and an oblong body. The young of water duck is smaller, with no reticulate corona on its head, only pappus. 2. Different colors The feathers of young landlubbers are generally pure black or pure white, bright and shiny, and the color of the duck eggs is grayish white. The feathers of young water ducks are brightly colored, including green, brown-red, purple-blue, etc., and the color of the duck eggs is green. 10. Is there anyone who does breeding? What is the price of Cherry Valley ducklings?Cherry Valley ducklings can grow to about 7 catties in 45 days, and adult ducks are about 8-9 catties. The recycling price varies from region to region, and the price will also be different |
