All about chick breeding, please, please!

Chicks refer to chickens between 1 and 6 weeks of age. The chick stage is the most critical stage in the whole growth period, in addition to trying to make the chicks grow and develop normally, the key is to reduce deaths and improve the survival rate. Here's how to raise chicks that I've carefully sorted out for you, let's take a look.

1. The first beak cutting should be carried out at the age of 6 9 days, and the beak should be cut accurately and correctly.

Second, the beak is divided into columns for the chickens at the same time, and the oversized and too small are picked out and fed separately, which is conducive to the control of uniformity in the future.

3. The second beak resection is done at the age of 10 to 12 weeks, and its purpose is to make individual trimming of the beak that was unsuccessful or regrows back in the first beak reopening. If the beak is not broken well, it will affect the feeding of the chicks, and some will not even be able to eat the feed, which will also affect the normal growth of the chicks.

Fourth, create suitable environmental conditions for the growth of broilers. It is advisable to keep the temperature of the chicken house 18 24 and the humidity of 50% 55% to prevent high temperature and high humidity, low temperature and high humidity.

Fifth, to provide a scientific and reasonable level of nutrition, appropriate feeding density, pay attention to ventilation, to create a good environment for the growth and development of chickens.

Sixth, do a good job in disease prevention. At the same time, in accordance with the requirements of the meat feeding management procedures and the actual situation of the field, a reasonable immunization program should be formulated to carry out vaccination to ensure that the vaccination effect is reliable and reliable.

7. Take the chicken to disinfect once a week, and set up the corresponding disinfection pool at the door of the chicken farm and chicken coop.

1. Feeding management during the brooding period.

1.The main purpose of the brooding period is to have a high survival rate. Temperature is the key to the success or failure of brooding.

2.Selection of brooding season: large and medium-sized chicken farms with good conditions, balanced production throughout the year. Small and medium-sized chicken farms with poor conditions should avoid brooding in winter and early spring when the temperature is low.

3.Feeding methods: ground leveling, off-ground net breeding, cage breeding, etc.

4.and beak amputation: Peck is a cannibalistic malaise that includes anal pecking, feather pecking, and toe pecking.

Peckering causes nervousness in the flock, affects growth and development, and increases mortality. Factors such as high light intensity, excessive feeding density, poor ventilation, lack of salt and protein in the feed can induce pecking. Here's how to prevent it:

Reduce the light and change the incandescent light to a red or green light. For open coops, pecking can only be prevented by beak cutting, which is generally done at 7-10 days of age.

Second, the breeding period of feeding management.

1.The main task and requirement of the breeding period is to make the chickens robust, the individual development of the flock neat, control the growth and development rate and sexual maturity, so that the chickens can achieve high uniformity, appropriate weight and sexual maturity.

2.The use of feeding restriction technology to control the starting weight of chickens or the weight of the chickens at sexual maturity within the standard range required by this breed.

3.The sexual maturity time of the flock is controlled through measures such as feeding restriction and light control. Light laying hens are 23-24 weeks old, medium laying hens are 24-25 weeks old.

1. Thermal insulation measures: control the temperature between 15-30 degrees Celsius, and put heating equipment in winter. 2. Drink enough water:

Mixing glucose and vitamin C and feeding it can clear the stomach and intestines. 3. Reasonable feeding: feed cooked rice, rice bran, corn paste, 3 times a day.

4. Pay attention to disinfection: clean the ground with disinfectant once a week.

1. Thermal insulation measures

Chick feathers are relatively scarce, not cold-tolerant, the temperature is too low, will affect its growth and development, in the breeding process, the temperature can be controlled between 15-30 degrees Celsius, and in winter to place heating equipment in the enclosure, so that the chicks live normally.

2. Drink enough water:

Chicks do not drink water within 24 hours after hatching, there will be dehydration symptoms, so in the process of breeding chicks, be sure to feed water first, mix glucose and vitamin C, let it drink, in order to clean up the stomach, eliminate meconium, and provide cooked water when feeding chicks in the later stage.

3. Reasonable feeding

Chicks should be eaten within 12-4 hours after hatching, the feed is mainly small, soft food, you can feed cooked rice, rice bran, corn paste, or cut the tender lettuce into thin strips for the chicks to peck freely, pay attention to feed 3 times a day.

4. Pay attention to disinfection

In the process of raising chickens, we must pay attention to the environmental hygiene of the enclosure, keep it clean and tidy, clean the ground with disinfectant once a week, and change the grass frequently, and the chickens' food basins and water basins should also be cleaned and disinfected to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort.

The newly hatched chicks are weak and have poor ability to adapt to the environment, so farmers have the heart to let the chicks grow up quickly, but although they are eager, they still need to take one step at a time. Here's how to raise chicks that I've carefully sorted out for you, let's take a look.

1.Temperature is critical and has a great impact on the survival rate of chicks. Keep warm, put it in a small cardboard box, put a cloth underneath, and a small light bulb of 25 degrees above is 20 cm away from the chick. The carton mouth is vented on the cloth cover.

2.Be sure to feed, millet with a small amount of eggs steamed in water, crushed and fed to the chicks. The starter can be boiled until eight mature before feeding, which is conducive to the digestion of chicks.

3.Buy 1-2 more, because chicks are social animals and they will be happy to have company.

4.Don't give it water, it will have diarrhea. Oxytetracycline (powder) can be added to the food, and pharmacies have it. Yeast flakes and sand can also be added to aid digestion. Add garlic once a week. Do not get sick. Lack of calcium, bask in the sun, and add 21 gold vitamins to its food.

When my chicks were just 3 months old, I went to the flower and bird market to buy chick feed for them, and found that they still grew very well with feed. Feed a little more breadworms a day. Add some vegetable leaves, and the chicks will be happy.

Tip: You can also add a small amount of soybean meal and corn flour to the negative feed in a 3-to-7 ratio. It should be noted that young chicks should not be fed raw corn, which will be loose.

1. Poor cold resistance. The hatching chicks, the body temperature is lower than the adult chickens 3, it takes 10 days to reach normal body temperature, and the chick fluff is short and thin, can not keep out the cold, so the adaptability to the environment is not strong, must rely on artificial insulation, the chicks can grow and develop normally. Chicks from 1 to 30 days old should be kept warm and kept in a clean and hygienic environment.

Chicks over 30 days old have feathers that are basically full and full, and they do not need to be kept warm.

2. High body temperature and rapid development. Generally, the body temperature of chickens is between, so it must be raised in a warm winter and cool summer, and a well-ventilated environment, in addition, the digestive tract of chickens is short, the metabolism is vigorous, and the growth and development are fast, so it is necessary to feed sufficient nutrition and easily digestible feed to meet the needs.

3. Weak resistance. Chicks, in particular, are susceptible to harmful microorganisms. Therefore, in addition to doing a good job of environmental cleanliness and hygiene, it is also necessary to do a good job of prevention. For example, the chicken coop is strictly forbidden for outsiders to enter and exit, the environment and cages should be disinfected, and all kinds of chickens should be regularly injected with various preventive injections.

4. Easy to startle. Chickens are timid, especially chicks, which are easy to startle, the light ones are crowded, the growth and development are hindered, and the heavy ones trample on each other to cause disability and death. Therefore, raise chickens in a quiet place.

Rough management, sudden noise, intrusion of dogs and cats, culling, etc. can all lead to disturbances in the flock and affect growth.

5. Afraid of moisture. Chickens should be grown in a dry and ventilated environment, and if the environment is humid, some pathogenic bacteria and molds are easy to grow and reproduce. If the house is damp, the manure will ferment to produce toxic gases, making the chickens susceptible to disease.

Chicks are actually not difficult to raise, I often raised them when I was a child, and when I raised them, I killed them and ate them, to tell you how I raised them, first of all, the chicks are weak and afraid of cold. It is best to raise it in the room, 1 prepare a small box, spread a layer of plastic on the bottom, and then a layer of newspaper, prepare a small feeder, and transform one with a Wahaha yogurt bottle.

2Put the chicks in it, 3 put the millet in boiling water, and put it in a small bottle, don't put too much.

4. Feed water, just plain warm water, fix the bottle and box with water, and avoid the chicken from tipping over the bottle when drinking. The water doesn't have to be filled, two-thirds is fine.

5. When the newspaper in the inside is dirty, replace it with a new one.

Just keep it like this, and at night if you don't feel noisy, you can close the lid and make a few holes in the side of the box. Just make sure that the air circulation is normal.

When the chicken is bigger, you can put it outside to raise, and then you don't need to feed the millet, just throw the rice directly on the ground.

When they are a little older, the chickens almost already recognize their home, and they can be released to breed freely, and they don't have to bother to feed, once a day, and the rest of the time the chickens are looking for something to eat outside, (centipedes, scorpions, grasshoppers, spiders, crickets, dragonflies, caterpillars.) Wait for small insects and chickens to eat. Leave them alone, they won't starve!

Every night when it gets dark, you shout in the yard, and the chickens hear it and come back. If you don't shout, the chickens will come back, and they will not get lost if they recognize their home.

After the chickens are free-range, you don't need to use the broken box, just build a nest for them with bricks outside, and you don't need to make it too tight, you will know after raising it for a long time, they don't run. ）

Day after day, you almost kill and eat, and if you don't want to kill, you can keep it. Let's live to be 6-7 years old! Generally, the normal ones in the countryside are killed and eaten, and the hens are left, and then a big rooster is left.

If you are in the city, you can kill and eat it when you raise it, buy some hazelnut mushrooms to stew, it is very fragrant, and it is definitely better than the chicken in the market
