Construction plan of meat pigeon breeding greenhouse what is the equipment for meat pigeon breeding?

When it comes to pigeons, I believe everyone is very familiar with it, because it is a common kind of bird in life. Pigeons have a lot of prices, not only can be enjoyed, but also can be eaten, the taste is also very delicious, and the nutritional value is very high. So do you know how to raise meat pigeons? How to build a greenhouse for raising meat pigeons?

Construction Scheme of Meat Pigeon breeding greenhouse

1. Double-row pigeon house

The roof truss is often herringbone, 2.5 meters high in the north and 2.8 meters in the south. If the roof is covered with fiberglass or asbestos tiles, attention should be paid to strengthening and plugging leaks to prevent tornadoes, typhoons and storms. The depth of the pigeon house is 2.2 meters, and the central part of the pigeon house needs to have an operation lane 0.8 mi 0.9 m wide, with drains on all sides. Pigeon cages stand opposite each other, there can be 3-story or 4-story cages, it is better to hang canopy from the top to the ground, the tarp can be put down to keep warm in winter, and the tarp can be rolled up in other seasons for ventilation and light transmission.

The periphery and upper layer of the cage are barbed wire, a wooden door or bamboo is arranged on one side of the operation channel, and the food trough and health sand cup are hung on the cage door to facilitate feeding and observation. To facilitate water supply and flushing, a long flume should be installed on the outside of the cage. The cage has a width of 60 cm, a depth of 60 cm and a height of 55 cm. There is no gap between the upper, middle and lower cages, and the bottom of the lowest layer is about 20m / 50cm from the ground. If the length of each row of cages is 3 storeys, it is generally 18m ~ 21m.

2. Single-row pigeon house

The structure of single-row pigeon house is similar to that of double-row pigeon house. The single-row pigeon house has only a pigeon cage on the sunny side, with brick walls on the shade side and several windows on the wall, which is different from the double-row pigeon house. The advantage of single-row pigeon house is to sit north and face south, so it has plenty of sunshine, good ventilation and warm in winter. However, its deficiency is that the amount of feeding per unit area is half less than that of the two-row type and covers more area.

What are the breeding equipment for meat pigeons?

Pigeon raising equipment generally includes nest basin, food trough, drinking fountain, health sand bowl, perch, bathtub, pigeon net, foot ring, cushion, matching cage and squab transport cage and so on.

The prospect of meat pigeon breeding

Meat pigeon culture has the advantages of short cycle, low cost, fast efficiency and high benefit. It is not only a promising breeding industry, but also a good project to get rich quickly.

The cost of raising meat pigeons is much lower than that of raising broilers. From the egg laying of the female pigeon, after 18 days of incubation, the brooding can be sold in 24 days, and the breeding period is very short. A breeding pigeon consumes 40 grams of food a day, and a lactating pigeon consumes 75 grams of food a day. When the squab is sold from its shell to 30 days old, it consumes a total of 1000ml 1500 grams of grain, and the feed consumption is very economical. In addition, at present, the price of protein feed is high, and the proportion of protein in meat chicken feed is as high as 20%, while that in meat pigeon feed is only 13%. If meat pigeons are raised intensively on a large scale, the feed cost is significantly lower than that of broilers.

The hatching period of pigeons is from 17 to 18 days. Young pigeons are initially fed by pigeon milk in their parents' crop, and then gradually transferred from half-milk and half-grain to soaked grain. Meat pigeons grow very fast, and their weight can reach 500 Mel 700 grams at the age of 25-30 days. Taking the annual production of 6 pairs of breeding pigeons as an example, according to the current purchase price of the foreign trade department, after deducting feed costs, drug fees and management fees, raising a pair of breeding pigeons can make a profit of 100Mel 150 yuan a year. If the squab is selected and bred and sold as a reserve breeding pigeon at the age of 2-5 months, the profit will be even greater.

Feeding and Management of Meat Pigeon

1, feed preparation: pigeons have the habit of picky food, for a variety of feed mixed diet, the order of eating feed is: mung bean → pea → wheat → corn → soybean → rice → sorghum, etc., therefore, it is best to match into granular materials, so as not to be picky food caused by some nutritional deficiencies. At the same time, some components of feed raw materials should be increased or decreased according to the changes of season and production cycle. Hot summer, add mung beans to clear heat and reduce fire; cold winter, increase hemp kernel to improve the energy value of feed; add rapeseed during moulting period to shorten molting time. When preparing feed, attention should be paid to the balance of animal proteins, especially essential amino acids. Animal protein is very important for egg production, fertilization rate and hatching rate of pigeons as well as the weight of 28-day-old pigeons.

2. Feeding method: three times a day, fixed time and quantity. Feeding time, most take 7:30 in the morning, 2:00 in the afternoon, 6 in the evening; feeding amount is: non-feeding period of about 40 grams per pair of pigeons. During the feeding period, it is best to keep feeding, if not feeding grains, before feeding, soak the feed in warm water (about 40 ℃) for 30 minutes, dry and then feed, which is beneficial to the digestion of squab.

3. Preparation and delivery of health care sand: the quality and feed intake of health care sand directly affect the growth, development and reproduction of pigeons. During the breeding period, the formula of health sand (%) was as follows: River sand 35, yellow mud 20, shell powder 15, salt 5, lime 2, poultry multidimensional 2, gentian 0.5, gypsum powder 2, eggshell powder 2, bone meal 2, charcoal powder 6, fish meal 5, licorice 1, auxin 1.5, oxytetracycline calcium salt 0.6, yeast slice 0.4. Pigeons like to eat fresh, dry health care sand, so it is best to put health care sand once a day.

The above is a summary of the greenhouse construction methods and feeding skills of meat pigeons for you. I hope it will be helpful to you. As we all know, pigeons are a very delicious and nutritious food. Many people eat pigeons to recuperate and replenish their nutrition. Demand often exceeds supply on the market, so breeding meat pigeons is also one of the more promising breeding projects.
