What is the misunderstanding of raising chickens and how to solve it?

The analysis shows that the reason why some chicken farmers can not earn money or it is difficult to develop is mainly because some misunderstandings in the breeding process hinder their own development. In this regard, the reporter interviewed Associate Professor Li Yunfu, an animal husbandry expert at Yangling Vocational and Technical College. professor Li revealed the current misunderstandings of farmers raising chickens and put forward solutions.

There are misunderstandings

First, blind introduction. The blind pursuit of new breeds, regardless of local natural conditions, breeding conditions and market demand, or just trying to be cheap while neglecting the quality of chicks will reduce the feeding effect.

Second, want to prevent chicken disease or feed chickens with medicine for a long time through an immutable immunization program.

Third, the feed formula is either unchanged or changed indiscriminately.

Fourth, do not grasp the law of breeding, see that others do not raise chickens, they do not dare to raise, see that others earn money when they begin to expand breeding.

Solution.

First of all, some farmers are not good at raising chickens, they always look for reasons in the breed, but they do not find the gap in their own management and breeding, and fantasize about achieving high yield and good benefits by changing varieties. In fact, each variety has its advantages and disadvantages, such as some varieties are resistant to rough feeding and the requirements for feed are not strict; some varieties have good disease resistance and are easy to raise. If you want to decide the selection of breeding varieties by farmers, it mainly depends on the local feeding level and the management conditions that can be achieved.

Secondly, feeding drugs to chickens for a long time will cause waste of drugs, cause drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria in chickens, and cause damage to the kidneys of chickens. Blind use of medicine when chickens get sick will delay the disease. Due to the uncertainty of the epidemic, we can not choose immutable drugs to prevent diseases. Farmers generally attach importance to vaccinating chickens, but they do not pay much attention to the hygiene of chicken sheds, leaving hidden dangers for the spread of the disease, so a comprehensive disinfection of chicken sheds should be carried out before new chicks.

Thirdly, different breeds of chickens use different formulations of feed, and chickens of different growth periods have different feed formulations, so they can not use the same feed for a long time; do not abuse feed additives, if feed additives are added arbitrarily, it not only increases the feeding cost, but also destroys the balance of various nutrients in feed. There should be a transitional period for the change of feed. If the feed is changed suddenly, it will easily cause stress reaction and even cause chicken death.

Finally, we should grasp the breeding law and market law, and when choosing breeding varieties, it should be determined by people, places and markets.
