Key points for quail feeding management 2

<> quail is generally called the rearing period from 20 to 40 days of age. This is the time when quail grows most rapidly and early, and conditions should be created for it to grow rapidly.

1) Temperature requirements. After the quail enters the breeding stage, it gradually adapts to the natural temperature, but it is necessary to prevent sudden heat or severe cold, because sudden changes in temperature can cause colds and other diseases. The suitable temperature during this period is 22-24, which is about the same as the natural temperature in most places in Yunnan during the day, and there is no need to take measures to keep warm, and at night it is appropriate to heat up and shield by curtains, etc., which can also basically meet the requirements.

2) Density requirements. As the quail grows up, the density needs to be further reduced to about 50 quails per square meter, and combined with grouping, and at the same time, the weak chicks are kept in a concentrated manner.

3) Lighting requirements. Light has a certain effect on feeding intake and sexual maturity, generally 15-16 hours of light time, light intensity is 5-10 watts.

4) Segmentation requirements. The 20-day-old quail distinguishes male and female quails according to their coat color and chirping, and is kept in separate cages. At the age of 40 days, the sexuality gradually matures, and the quail can be mixed with male and female cages, familiar with the mate, and prepare for formal breeding in the future.

1.Tips for breeding.

The environment of the brooding room must be strictly controlled, the volume of the quail itself is small, and the small quail born is more weak, to ensure the hygiene and cleanliness of the brooding room, regularly disinfect and sterilize the brooding room, in addition to ensuring that the temperature of the brooding room is normal, the temperature is controlled at 39 degrees -40 degrees, which is the early temperature, and then every week needs to be reduced by 2-3 degrees, following this law to breed quail is very beneficial to its early development, and it is also a place where many people make mistakes in the quail in the nestling stage. Poor control of the temperature has led to a series of problems.

2.Feeding environment.

There are many ways to raise quails, divided into family breeding and professional breeding, idle houses or professional sheds can also be built, quail houses are built to meet the growth habits of quails, the size of the quail house can be determined by the density and total number of feeding, the temperature of the quail house should be controlled at around 27 degrees, and this temperature is the best temperature for development, and it is necessary to pay attention to the usual ventilation of the quail house.

3.Feeding management.

Chicks can be raised for about 40 days to start production, during which the feeding can not be replaced at will, the temperature can not be cold and hot, maintain a stable temperature, which is more beneficial to the quail's physical maturity and sexual maturity, timely cleaning and cleaning of the quail house, to prevent quail from showing symptoms, the water and feed in the shed can not be broken, to maintain the feed continuously.

4.Feed for the fit.

In the quail different growth period to configure different feed for feeding, the use of feed quail in the production of a month after the use of soybean cake feed and bone meal collocation, the full price of the feed to replace the egg production period feed, feed always to maintain diversification, can not be too single, otherwise the quail nutrients and imbalance, the occurrence of deterioration of the feed can not be fed, otherwise it will cause the consequences of death, so it is necessary to check the feed from time to time to prevent this tragedy, resulting in large-scale damage.

5.Reproduction. Quail needs to be selected in reproduction, high-quality, disease-resistant ability to breed, to eliminate poor physique and fertility problems quail, select strong egg-laying quail, to ensure production and egg production.

Quails mainly eat weed seeds, beans, grains and berries, young leaves, shoots, etc., and eat a large number of insects and larvae in summer, as well as small invertebrates, etc., and the quails raised mainly eat cornmeal, rice bran, soybean cake powder, bran, fish meal, bone meal, leaf meal, salt, green vegetables, insects, etc.

Feed is more diversified, nutrition should be comprehensive, you can choose good quality, strong palatability, relatively complete nutrition, cheap, more abundant feed to form compound feed. The quail feed is mainly semi-wet material, which is fed 5 times a day, and about 30 grams of concentrate is given to each one every day.
