How to prolong the laying period of raising ducks

The yield of laying duck is not only affected by breed, feed, management technology and age, but also varies greatly among individuals. Therefore, it can be identified according to the body shape and appearance of the egg duck.

The high-yield egg duck has large protruding eyes, small head, slender neck, long body, wide back, wide chest, full and balanced development and agile action. When holding the duck neck by hand, the feet are straight down and do not move. The low-yield duck has small, non-protruding and godless eyes, big head, thick neck, short body, narrow back and chest, and slow movement. Bend your feet when you hold the duck neck by hand. After the high-yield ducks were full, the cervical esophagus dilated and prolapsed. This means that there are more foods, sufficient nutrients and high yield. On the contrary, it is the performance of low yield. Whether it is a new duck or an old duck more than two years old, the feathers are rich, close and meticulous before the start of production. After the beginning of production, most of the nutrients absorbed by high-yield ducks are used for laying eggs, but rarely for body growth, and their feathers gradually fade and become messy and dull. If the feathers on the top of its head, neck and back become sparse, it is a symbol of frequent mating with ducks and a symbol of high yield. Its abdomen is irregular due to the long time of squatting down and laying eggs and its feathers are dirty. The feathers of low-yield ducks are messy and have no luster before they are laid.
