Ten points for breeding ducklings

1. When the ducklings are newly hatched at the right time, there will be meconium in the intestine and there will be no remaining egg yolks in the body. The timely drinking water can supplement the water consumed by the ducklings when they are hatched and promote intestinal peristalsis and metabolism. It is beneficial to excrete meconium and accelerate the absorption of the remaining egg yolk in the body to enhance appetite, so ducklings should be allowed to drink as soon as possible. After replenishing the ducklings, about 12-24 hours after hatching, until the fluff is dry, lively and lively, when each other, the best food.

Second, with a good drinking water for the first time drinking water, such as using one-tenth of potassium permanganate can play a role in the disinfection of the gastrointestinal tract; such as oral rehydration salt to ducklings, because oral rehydration salts have added fluid to relieve dehydration It plays a role in adjusting the body's moisture, electrolyte and acid-base balance, enhancing sugar and protein metabolism, and promoting the body's digestion and absorption functions. It is suitable for the physiological needs of ducklings.

Third, the demand for dietary ducklings fast growth, rapid weight gain, such as simply feeding rice and some miscellaneous valleys can not meet their nutritional needs. Duckling diets require high energy, high protein, but also have enough calcium and phosphorus and various trace elements and vitamins, while the feed requires easy digestion and absorption, so only feed nutrient-rich and comprehensive full-priced compound feed can Fully meet their needs.

Fourth, feeding technology Ducklings digestive system development is not perfect, such as eating too full, it will cause indigestion, it is best to feed 78% full. Although there are many foods for ducklings, the digestive speed is very fast. If the number of feedings is small and the interval is long, they will be over starved and can affect the growth and development. The general ducklings were fed 7-8 times on the first Sunday, 6 times on the second Sunday, 5 times on the 3rd Sunday, and 4 times after the 4th week.

Fifth, pay attention to thermal insulation ducklings poor ability to regulate, newly hatched ducklings to do a good job of insulation, brooding chamber temperature should be maintained at 32 °C, to prevent colds, diarrhea, etc.; with age, gradually cooling, generally daily temperature difference Can not exceed 4 °C, the minimum temperature can not be lower than 15 °C.

Six, breeding density Duckling metabolism, excrement, if the breeding density is too large, duck house damp, likely to cause air pollution inside the house, in serious cases may cause NH3 and H2S poisoning, 1-3 weeks old ducklings per square meter 25 Only about, gradually reduce the rearing density, after four weeks of age, feeding 7-8 per square meter is appropriate.

7. To prevent piles of ducklings. The body temperature regulation function before the age of 2 weeks is not yet sound, especially cold, if the outside temperature is low, they will pile up on each other. If the accumulation time is long, the ducklings that are pressed on the bottom layer will suffer from lack of oxygen. And suffocation died. In order to prevent piles, the status of ducklings should be checked frequently. In case of piles, they should be separated in time, bedding changed frequently, and insulation measures should be strengthened.

VIII. Reasonable grouping should be based on the size and strength of ducklings. Strengthen the nursing of ducklings, and constantly check the eating situation. According to the degree of growth and development, adjust the strong and weak groups to maintain the same development.

Nine, the release of water activities can promote metabolism, enhance physical fitness, and can wash the body's dirt, good for health care. The initial release of ducklings can be carried out 2-3 weeks after hatching. Generally, water is released once a day for 10-15 minutes.

Tenth, strengthen ventilation Duckling metabolism is strong, drinking water, excrement if not cleared in time will produce harmful gases by fermentation decomposition, resulting in air turbidity, humidity, long-term non-ventilation, will result in duckling resistance decreased, physical weakness, serious It will cause duckling poisoning and death. Therefore, while keeping warm, ventilation should be strengthened to keep the air in the house fresh.
