The main points of how to raise Meat Duck in dry season

Meat duck dry breeding has always been a difficult problem in meat duck breeding, so how to raise meat duck dry breeding? Let's introduce it below.

1. Building houses: Choose a site with good soil permeability and leeward sun, level the ground and prevent ponding. 2. Selection: At present, there are mainly Shanghai white duck, Zhongshan duck, Beijing duck, cherry duck, Gaoyou duck and other varieties to choose from. These meat ducks are docile, adaptable and fattening, which are suitable for intensive group feeding and captivity. 3. Feed formula: ① duckling stage (1-25 days old): corn 50%, rapeseed cake 20%, broken rice 10%, bran 10%, fish meal 7.5%, bone meal 1%, shell meal 1%, salt 0.5%. (2) Middle duck stage (26-45 days old): corn 50%, bran 12%, broken rice 10%, barley and wheat 17%, rapeseed cake 5%, fish meal 4.5%, shell meal 1%, salt 0.5%. (3) Fattening period (7-15 days before sale): corn 35%, rice bran 30%, coarse flour 26.5%, soybean 5%, shell powder 2%, bone meal 1%, salt 0.5%. Remove soybeans later, reduce rice bran by 5% and increase sorghum by 10%. 4. Feeding method: After the ducklings are out of shell, water should be given in time within 24 hours. The method is: spread a piece of plastic film on the ground, sprinkle some cold boiled water or 1/10,000 oxytetracycline aqueous solution, let the ducklings drink water freely, and at the same time, mix the prepared feed with water and sprinkle it on the plastic film for its intake. Start to sprinkle less, and sprinkle while calling, guide the ducks to recognize food and find food. 1-3 Day-old ducklings are fed once an hour and are required to be fed in a short time. After 4 days of age, let them eat food day and night, feed less frequently, drinking water clean and sufficient. The duck period is the fastest weight gain stage, to feed regularly, let it eat well, and increase the amount of exercise, so that healthy development. During fattening period, ducks should be forced to increase their food intake, and artificial feeding is the best. Mix the compound feed with appropriate amount of warm boiled water until it is moderately soft and hard, and rub it into finger-sized particles by hand. The amount of artificial feeding depends on the duck's digestive ability. It is appropriate to fill it up and reduce the amount of exercise. 5. Room temperature requirements: 30-31℃ for 1-3 days, 28-30℃ for 4-7 days, 25-28℃ for 8-14 days, 20-25℃ for more than 15 days. In addition, duckhouse should strengthen ventilation, light transmission, keep the air fresh, food trough, drinking trough clean, feed should be fresh, drinking water should be sanitary, ducklings should frequently change the mat. At night, 25-30 ducklings or 5-8 adult ducks are bred per square meter.

Short-term intensity fattening. Mainly in order to improve the meat duck fatness, make the meat more delicious tender. Among them, it is most suitable for ducks to start fattening after 45 days. During the fattening period, high energy and low protein compound feed should be used. Refer to formula 1: 35% corn, 26.5% wheat middling, 30% rice bran, 5% beans (fried), 2% shell powder, 1% bone meal and 0.5% salt in the early stage; 35% corn, 30% wheat middling, 25% rice bran, 6.5% sorghum in the later stage; 2% shell powder, 1% bone meal and 0.5% salt in the later stage. Formula 2: corn flour 35%, wheat middling 26.5%, rice bran 25%, sorghum 10%, shell powder 2%, bone meal 1%, salt 0.5%.

Fattening methods are: (1) self-feeding fattening. The compound feed is shaken and wet for 3-4 hours to soften, so as to improve the digestibility and feed utilization rate. Feed regularly 4-5 times a day, feed 1 night food, feed while supplying water. The management should pay attention to the duck house lighting to dark, to make ducks less activity, more rest. (2)Artificial feeding fattening. adding water into the compound feed to make dry paste, rubbing into round strips with diameter of 3.3 cm and length of 5 cm by hands, sitting on a stool, clamping the lower part of duck body with both legs, spreading duck beak with thumb and index finger of left hand, pressing tongue with middle finger, dipping the round strips with water to lubricate them with right hand, and filling them into esophagus from mouth. Feed three times a day. Fattening 1-3 days, feed 3-4 pieces of round bar each time, 4-7 days, feed 4-6 pieces each time, 8 days later, feed 6-8 pieces each time. After feeding, provide enough water. The fattening period is generally 10-15 days. When the meat duck weighs 2-3 kg, the subcutaneous fat is thickened by hand, and the feather roots of the wing feathers are transparent, they can be sold on the market.

we should do a good job in preventing and controlling epidemic diseases. Therefore, the prevention and treatment of diseases must be based on the general principle of "prevention first, prevention more important than treatment, treatment second." Therefore, the duck house should be cleaned and dried, and the feeding tank should be washed frequently. The duck house should be strictly disinfected with sodium hydroxide before entering the house. When the meat duck is raised to about 20 days, each duck should be injected with 1 ml duck attenuated vaccine to prevent duck plague. At 30 days old, each duck should be injected with 2 ml avian cholera vaccine to prevent duck cholera. Often add 0.5%-1% sulfamethazine in feed for 3-5 days, stop feeding after 10 days, add 0.02% potassium permanganate solution in drinking water. If ducks are found to have abnormal reactions, timely isolation and diagnosis, strict disinfection.
