1. What are the requirements for setting up a duck hatchery?

Preparation of the chemical field:

1. Preparation of the incubator: The incubator should be separated from the breeding farm by a certain distance (at least 150m), and the incubator should be tight, well-insulated, and well-ventilated. The temperature of the incubator is 20-24℃, and it rises to 30℃ when the chicks are hatched; the relative humidity is 55%-60%, and it increases to 60%-65% when the chicks are hatched.

2. Hatching process flow: The process flow of the hatchery is: collection of breeding eggs → disinfection, storage and grading of breeding eggs → incubation → transfer of trays → grading, identification and vaccination of ducklings → storage of ducklings → distribution of ducklings.

3. Preparation of the incubator: Before hatching, the incubator should be inspected, disinfected, and tested before hatching. After inspection, it should be thoroughly cleaned, fumigated and disinfected, and then tested two days before hatching. It can only be hatched after it is operating normally.

Selection, storage, disinfection and preparation of eggs for transport

1. Breeding eggs should preferably come from breeds with high and stable production performance and no egg-borne diseases such as pullorum, mycoplasma, Marek's disease, etc. The surface should be clean, and the egg weight and eggshell color should meet the breed requirements.

2. Storage of breeding eggs: A special egg warehouse is set up to store breeding eggs. The suitable temperature is 12~15℃ and the humidity is 70%~80%. Note: The storage period should not exceed two weeks. It is best to place the breeding eggs with the blunt end facing down.

3. Transport of breeding eggs: Use special egg boxes to prevent collision and shock. Place the eggs with the blunt end facing upwards.

4. Disinfection of breeding eggs: Disinfect eggs as soon as possible after collecting them, and disinfect them again before hatching.

Shaoxing Muscovy duck is one of my country's excellent egg-laying duck breeds, known as the "Pearl of Poultry". It has the characteristics of small size, fast growth, low feed and high egg production. Shaoyu Plain is the origin and breeding center of Shaoxing Muscovy duck, with unique advantages.
