Landes Goose Breeding Technique (I)

Landes geese are native to the Landes region of southwestern France and are medium in size, gray-brown in feathers, nearly black in the neck and silvery in the abdomen. Landes goose has a fast growth rate, high down yield, good liver performance, tender meat quality, high lean meat ratio, resistance to rough feeding, and strong adaptability. It is an ideal breed for breeding. The goslings of the goslings and the opening of the shell within 1-3 days of eating, so that the goslings learn to drink and eat. Timely tides prevent dehydration of goslings and reduce early mortality. Tidal mouth water to be clean, can be added in the water 5% glucose, fluoride acid, multi-dimensional, anti-stress drugs, etc., and conditions can also add 2% of milk powder. It is advisable to use wet mixes for the consumption of edible materials. Sprinkle the parboiled millet or chopped greens, ryegrass, etc. on plastic sheeting and gently beat the plastic sheet with the hand to lure and train the goslings. Feeding and feeding young geese eat less in the first 1-3 days, feed 45 times a day, including feed l at night. Afterwards, the number and quantity of feedings will increase accordingly with the age of the day. At the age of 4-10 days, it can feed 6-8 times a day, including 2-3 times feeding at night. Feeding green feed every day can add appropriate amount of rice grains, such as feeding mixed feed, the proportion of rations is 60%-70% for green materials, and 30%-40% for fine materials. 11-20 days old goslings should be dominated by blue-green materials, and transition from rice to broken rice. If feeding compound feed, the proportion of diets should be 80%-90% for green feed, 10%-20% for concentrated feed, and feed every day. 6 times, including 2 nights. If the weather is mild, you can start training grazing. At the age of 21-30 days, the grains in the diet can be properly cooked until they are cracked, and the grains are fed gradually. Feeding, the proportion of rations for green feed 90% -92%, with 8% -10% of concentrated feed, feed 5 times a day, including 1-2 times at night. After 3 days of age, grazing can be carried out and night feeding can be done once. Temperature and humidity The optimum temperature for the growth of goslings is around 25C. The brooding temperature can be adjusted according to the age and the physical condition of the goslings. Under normal circumstances, 1-5 day old brooding temperature is 27-28C, room temperature 15-18C, relative humidity 60%-65%; 6-10 day brooding temperature is 25-26C, room temperature 15-18C, relative humidity 60% -65%; 11-15 day brooding temperature is 22-24C, room temperature 15C, relative humidity 65%-70%; 16-20 days brooding temperature is 18-22C, room temperature l5C, relative humidity 65%-70%. Generally, the incubation period of the goslings is 20-30 days, and the temperature of the goslings can be detempered after the incubation period to enhance the geese's constitution.
