What problems need to be paid attention to when hens in rural families naturally hatch chicks?

Pay attention to ventilation, keep the temperature of the hen warm, keep the hen's growth environment, be quiet, and feed the hen more grains.

It is necessary to pay attention to the temperature must be high, and in addition, it is necessary to create a relatively warm environment for the hens. It is okay to give the hen more beans.

I think it is necessary to maintain the temperature of the coop so that the chicks hatch more smoothly.

1.Hunger Law. This method is most widely used in the spring, when you see that the chickens at home are starting to stop laying eggs, and they still occupy the chicken nest all day long.

That would tie the hen with a rope so that it could not get close to the coop. And they are only given a small amount of food to eat every day, but water is still indispensable. Often these hens who want to hatch eggs will no longer have the idea of hatching eggs after being hung like this for a few days.

After a while, they will start laying eggs again. In the spring, this method is most commonly used.

2.Flooding. In the summer, even though the weather is very hot, some hens will hold their nests, even if they are so hot that they open their mouths to breathe widely. For the hens that hold the nest in the summer, my family basically uses the method of flooding.

It is possible to interfere manually, and it is an instinct of the hen to hatch eggs; I think the best way is to stop it in time, taking the eggs from under the hen can effectively prevent him from hatching the eggs, and I think the best way is to intervene humanly.

I think if you want the hen not to hatch the eggs, you can think of a few ways, which is very convenient; Take away the eggs, put table tennis balls, take the chickens for a walk, increase feeding, put kittens, remove the nest for hatching eggs, etc.

Summary. Hello, dear friend<>

: The hen can hatch the chicks directly.

1. Find the hen who holds the nest When the hen wants to hold the nest, it will always be in the nest and refuses to come out When you are close to it, it will spread its wings to make an attack posture This is to hold the nest After letting it pick it for two days and so on, you can let it hold the nest.

2. Choose high-quality eggs There are roosters at home The ratio of roosters and hens is 1 to 10, and the eggs are smooth and the size of the two ends can be distinguished finally.

3. Put the eggs in the nest where they are ready to hatch Choose a quiet and dark environment Put the hens on and start hatching the chicks. (Be sure to remember the date of the start of incubation).

4. The feeding of the hen is fed every other day when feeding the hen to take out the hen At this time, the egg must be covered with cotton wool to keep warm, and after feeding, let the hen defecate and then take it back to continue to hatch, so as not to defecate on the egg and affect the yield of the chick.

5. If it is hatched in summer, it will be almost out of chicks in 20 days, if it is in winter, it will take 234 days to produce chicks (my hens start to hatch in the middle of the month because of the cold, 25 days will start to produce chicks, and it will take four days to produce all chicks) When incubating to 18 days, you can test the water with warm water. (That is, after putting the egg in warm water and standing still, the egg will float up and sway, that is, it is alive, and the one that sinks to the bottom of the water is the real egg and is eliminated).

Rural hens hatch chickens, ducks, and goose seedlings with nest hens for a long time, and have accumulated a lot of incubation technology and incubation methods, egg selection, identification of infertile eggs, and elimination of oligotic eggs have a set of good experience. Because it is not possible to hatch much at one time with nest hens, it is necessary to find ways to improve the quality of eggs and strive for a high hatchability rate.

First of all, the selection of eggs, experienced farmers are very serious about selecting eggs.

It is necessary to consider that the breeding rooster is majestic and strong, the fight is strong, the hen lays more eggs, and the eggs are large, so that the hatching rate is high, and the chicken lays more eggs when it grows up. The selected eggs are inspected before hatching, and the eggs are looked at with a flashlight or electric light, this time mainly to see the size of the air chamber, and the farmer calls to see if there is a head or not. The air chamber should not be too large, too large means that the egg has been laid for a long time, and generally do not be used as an egg for incubation.

In the whole incubation period, the eggs are generally photographed twice and the water is kicked once, and the oligo-eggs are eliminated. The purpose of the egg is to remove the unfertilized eggs, dead embryo eggs and broken eggs in time, and the second is to comprehensively check the development of the embryo, and the first time to remove the unfertilized eggs, dead embryo eggs and broken eggs 5-6 days after incubation. It is usually at night, and I use a flashlight to look at the eggs.

The second time is carried out at 18-19 days of incubation.

What does an unfertilized egg look like?

The inside of the egg is transparent, and sometimes the ** of the egg shows a black shadow, which is the yolk. Dead embryos, the boundaries of the air chambers are blurred, the color is relatively light, and the blood ring or blood line can be seen in a single illumination, and sometimes the dead embryo can be seen, but there is no vascular spread. In the second illumination, dark red blood vessels are not visible around the air chamber, the color is relatively light, and the small hair of the egg is bright.

All unfertilized eggs, dead embryo eggs, and broken eggs are removed. Incubation to 18-19 days, generally use the method of water to check whether the embryo eggs are alive, with a basin filled with half a basin of warm water, pay attention to the temperature must be kept at 38-40, not lower than 37 and higher than 41, if the water temperature exceeds 42, 2-3 hours embryos will die.

The embryo eggs that have been incubated for 18-19 days are put into the water one by one, pay attention to whether the embryo eggs move, if it is a live embryo egg, it will move and kick the water, if it is placed in the water motionless, it is a dead embryo egg, combined with the egg for removal.

Ways to reduce oligo-eggs.

The eggs used to hatch chicks must be fresh, preferably within 3-5 days, and be sure to use the hen eggs of the flock with roosters, reduce the time for the hens to leave the nest during the hen's nest, and try to drive the hens back to the nest in time after feeding and watering.

Handling of oligo-eggs. The widowed eggs that came out of the first photo can still be eaten, but we don't allow children to eat them here, saying that children are easy to gray hair after eating, do you have children there who eat widowed eggs? The eggs that tread water for the second time can no longer be eaten, and many of them are stinky and spoiled.

Eggs are selected by the method of taking pictures of the eggs, and if there is no embryo in the egg, then the egg will be eaten directly.

The light will be used to select, and the specific situation of the eggs can be determined directly through the light, and the appropriate eggs will be selected to hatch the chicks.

The appearance of the eggs will be observed. First of all, the eggs should be inspected, and you can use a flashlight to look at the eggs, and then you should observe the size of the air chamber.

Because the temperature of incubating chicks requires high precision, it is necessary to make an incubator to stabilize the temperature to ensure that the chicks are hatched smoothly

1. Prepare a thermal insulation foam box, precision thermostat, 12V power supply, hair **, 2mm pearl cotton sheet, aluminum film tape, double-sided tape, 2 pairs of quick connectors (available or not), DC female connector, and a wire.

2. Make the box. Prepare the cabinet and make holes for the thermostat. The inner wall of the box can be pasted with aluminum film to improve the thermal insulation effect.

3. Connect the thermostat as instructed.

4. Install the thermostat on the outside of the box and the front of the box to monitor the temperature of the chicks.

5. Sealing in the box.

6. Make a heating pad, and glue double-sided tape on the pearl cotton sheet according to the distance.

7. Start to arrange the wires, so that they are neatly arranged, and paste the tin foil.

8. Put the water bag, the temperature probe is attached to the water bag**, or inserted between the water bag and the wall of the box, and the temperature is about 40.

9. Put the eggs on the cover with insulation cotton and wait for the chicks to hatch.

10. After waiting quietly for 21 days, the chicks hatched smoothly.
