CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to raise pheasants?

During the chick stage of pheasants, the temperature should be controlled at around 20 to 35 degrees, good ventilation should be maintained, and the lights should be kept dim to promote the growth of chicks. After one month, pheasants can be raised in the wild. In summer, more grass can be provided, and in winter, more feed should be provided. Attention should be paid to the sanitation and cleaning of the chicken coop, and the chickens should be released in time when they reach 2 to 3 kilograms. 1. Chicken house management Since pheasants still have a certain wildness, the chicken coops of pheasants are generally open, that is, they are raised in enclosures. The soil of the selected site should first be loose, preferably sandy soil, because pheasants have the habit of bathing in sandy soil, which can also remove parasites. Secondly, it is best to have a shed in the middle for rest and shelter from the rain. Drinking water and feeding are fixed in one place, which is conducive to daily management and observation. The height of the enclosure is more than 2 meters, and pheasants can fly and jump very well. 2. Chick management Although pheasants have strong survival ability, chicks are indeed extremely fragile and easy to have problems. First of all, the temperature should be paid great attention to. Generally, the temperature should be kept at about 30-35 degrees in the first two weeks after hatching, and it should be controlled at about 20-30 degrees after two weeks. The ventilation and air in the incubator should be kept good in the early stage. If the conditions are good, a small amount of air freshener can be sprayed. Secondly, the light should be as dim as possible, which is conducive to the dormancy and growth of the chicks. Pheasant 33. Feeding and management The feed for pheasants is seasonal. Generally, in winter, there will be more feed, less grass and water. The water must be above zero degrees because pheasants are very afraid of cold. In summer, the amount of feed should be less than that of grass, and the grass should be mainly fresh. Both the feeding trough and the water trough should be cleaned every day to avoid causing diseases. The principle of feeding is fixed three times in the morning, noon and evening. When feeding, wait until the chickens have finished eating before continuing to feed them for the second time, so as to ensure the amount of food intake and avoid waste. 4. Precautions When raising pheasants, you must pay attention to hygiene cleaning, because the feces of pheasants can easily cause parasites. Secondly, you can throw some vegetables into the breeding field on a daily basis to supplement various vitamins. Generally, when the pheasants reach 2-3 kilograms, the profit is the greatest. It is also difficult for them to grow bigger in the later stage, so they must be marketed in time.

Pheasants, also known as pheasants and mountain chickens, are extremely beautiful and are the prototype of the phoenix. Their greatest characteristics are that they are beautiful and delicious. Pheasants are not only recognized as a world-renowned wild delicacy, but also have extremely high economic value and are known as the "king of wild game" and "animal ginseng". In recent years, with the improvement of people's living standards, game food has become an indispensable delicacy on the table and banquet. However, wild pheasants are protected by national laws, and hunting and illegal operations are strictly prohibited. In addition, there are very few stocks in nature, so there are unlimited business opportunities for artificial breeding of pheasants.

1. How to raise: Pheasants are wild animals with strong vitality, adaptability and disease resistance. They do not have high requirements for the environment and can withstand high temperatures of 46°C and severe cold of -32°C. The breeding technology is the same as that of domestic chickens. The staple food is grains and they can be fed with ordinary feed plus grass and vegetable leaves. They can be raised in pens or cages in old houses, warehouses, etc.

The pheasant is in the fattening stage from the age of 1 week to 16-18 weeks, during which the weight of the pheasant shows a linear upward trend.

1. Feed properly. Farmers who feed pheasants with raw grains can appropriately increase the feeding ratio of energy feeds such as corn and sorghum (recommended formula: 40% corn, 15% wheat, 20% fried peas, 15% rapeseed cake, 5% bran, 4% rice bran, 1% bone meal, and add 2.5 kg of salt and appropriate trace elements per ton of feed). Farmers who feed with domestic chicken feed can buy broiler growth feed for feeding, and ensure sufficient drinking water. In addition, 10% to 20% green feed can be added. Let the pheasants take a sand bath at least once a week, and spray 2% trichlorfon solution into the river sand to kill external parasites.

2. Control the density. In the early stage of fattening (5 to 11 weeks old), 10 to 12 pheasants can be raised per square meter. Later, they can be grouped according to gender, strength, and size, and the density can be gradually reduced to 6 to 8 per square meter. At the same time, sufficient feed troughs should be set up to allow them to eat evenly and grow uniformly.

3. Set up perches to prevent pecking. Perches should be placed inside and outside the fattening pheasant house for pheasants to fly and perch. This not only makes full use of the breeding space, but also helps to reduce the pecking habit of pheasants. If a pheasant is found to be pecked, gentian violet or camphor ointment should be applied to the wound and the pheasant should be kept in isolation. If necessary, the pheasant flock should be regulated by the following methods: (1) Hang grass or vegetables in the house to lure the pheasants to peck at the vegetables to distract their energy from pecking feathers, while also supplementing vitamins and cellulose. (2) When the pheasants are 9 to 11 weeks old, 1% feather powder can be added to the feed. (3) The salt content in the feed should be increased to 2.5%, or salt should be added to the drinking water, and sufficient water supply should be ensured.

4. Prevent startled birds from flying away. Keep the venue as quiet as possible and refuse visitors to reduce the influence of external factors. To prevent startled birds from flying away and causing injuries or death, the primary flight feathers on one side of the pheasant can be cut off.

5. Do a good job in epidemic prevention. The pheasant house should be cleaned every day and disinfected once a week with disinfectants such as Baidusai. Pheasants aged 8 to 9 weeks should be vaccinated with Newcastle disease II vaccine through drinking water, and prevent the occurrence of fowl cholera or coccidiosis.

2. Development:

1. Edible value: Pheasant meat is tender and delicious, with a strong game flavor. Its protein content is as high as 30%, which is twice that of ordinary chicken and pork. Its fat content is only 0.9%, which is 1/39 of pork, 1/8 of beef, and 1/10 of chicken. It basically does not contain cholesterol (see the table below). It is a high-protein, low-fat game food. Pheasant has therefore become a royal tribute in successive dynasties. Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty was amazed after eating it and wrote the famous sentence "The name is three thousand miles away from the northern frontier, and the taste is better than the twelve towers in the south of the Yangtze River." Ye Xuanping, vice chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, commented after eating it: "It looks good, tastes good, and has a game flavor." The famous nutritionist Yu Ruomu also gave a high evaluation of the nutritional content of pheasants. Pheasants are high-end gifts for giving to others, rare game for entertaining guests, and reserved dishes for the White House of the United States to entertain heads of state. Because of this, there is a wave of sending pheasants in the market around the Spring Festival every year.

2. Medicinal use: "Compendium of Materia Medica" records: Pheasants replenish qi and blood, eating them makes people smart, brave, healthy and plump, stops diarrhea, eliminates chronic diseases and gasps of the five internal organs, etc. According to the determination of Guangzhou Zhongshan Medical University: it contains 21 kinds of amino acids necessary for the human body, many of which cannot be synthesized by the human body itself, which conforms to the amino acid pattern stipulated by the World Health Organization. It is also rich in germanium, selenium, zinc, iron, calcium and other trace elements necessary for the human body. It has a good effect on malnutrition in children, anemia in women, postpartum physical weakness, uterine prolapse and stomach pain, neurasthenia, coronary heart disease, cor pulmonale, etc., and its nourishing function for the human body is far higher than that of the long-renowned turtle and eel. The content of strontium and molybdenum in pheasants is 10% higher than that of ordinary chickens, and it also has the effect of preventing and treating cancer.

3. Appreciation: Giving pheasants as gifts during festivals is a tradition in my country since ancient times. It means good luck and a bright future. It can also be made into beautiful and popular specimens. The specimens made of pheasant fur in our farm are bright, lifelike, noble and elegant. Each specimen sells for more than 200 yuan and is also popular in craft gift shops and tourist attractions in major cities. Pheasant feathers are unique and can also be made into feather fans, feather paintings, toys and other crafts. The British Ministry of Defense also made it into the most effective bulletproof vest.

3. Economic Benefit Analysis:

1. Income forecast: Take the introduction of 50 groups of pheasants (1 male and 5 females/group) as an example. The annual egg production of each hen is calculated as 100 eggs (the actual egg production is much higher), and 250 hens produce 25,000 eggs per year. The qualified rate of breeding eggs is calculated as 95%, and the fertilization rate, hatching rate, and survival rate are all calculated as 85%. The annual output of pheasants is: 25,000 × 95% × 85% × 85% × 85% = 14,585. After more than 3 months of breeding, commercial chickens can reach 1.5 kg. The current selling price is 30-50 yuan/piece. Even if sold at the price of native chickens, it can still be sold for 24 yuan. Annual income: 14,585 × 24 yuan/piece = 350,000 yuan.

2. Cost analysis: ① RMB 24,000 for introducing new breeds. ② Feed costs: Each commercial chicken costs RMB 7-10, and 14,585 chickens require RMB 140,000 for feed; the cost of breeder chicken feed is about RMB 10,000. A total of RMB 150,000. ③ Annual water and electricity expenses are about RMB 1,000. ④ Staff wages: The average annual salary for each person is RMB 6,000, and the total salary for two people is RMB 12,000. A total of RMB 187,000.

3. Profit: 350,000-187,000=163,000 yuan. In the first year, all investment can be recovered and a profit of 163,000 yuan can be made (this is calculated based on the lowest egg production and sales price, the actual price is higher) investment insurance.
