Families who raise pheasants for the blind get rich.

The boy likes to think about "chicken laying eggs and raw chicken"

Liang Ruiguo, 31, is a villager of Xisunlou Village, Beiwa Township, Lingshou County. When he was a child, he suffered from eye disease and could not be cured even though he had almost lost his fortune. At the age of 15, he went blind.

After the color world disappeared in his life, he left the classroom and helped his parents with the farm work at home. In those years, he also lamented that his fate was unfair, but it was also at that time that he began to "pay attention" because he did not want to be worse off than others.

Whenever he hears people talking about a thing or a skill, he will remember it by heart. For example, when a fellow-townsman came to his house to mention the grafting of fruit trees, he would ask more, "what on earth do you do?" After the villagers left, he thought about giving it a try on his own persimmon tree.

The small courtyard of low brick houses, surrounded by towering and bright new houses, is the home of Liang Ruiguo.

Rows of chicken cages are placed in the corners of the walls on both sides of the courtyard, and several tall or low fruit trees create a green sense of the courtyard.

Liang Ruiguo's father, Liang Fayun, pointed to a fruit tree grafted with black dates and persimmons and said, "this is planted by my son, and that peach tree has been grafted with three or four varieties. As a result, there are peaches to eat all summer." He said that his son just likes to ponder.

Indeed, raising chickens was also conceived by Liang Ruiguo. Six years ago, when he learned on TV that someone had picked up ten mountain eggs and embarked on the road to prosperity, he was a little moved.

In the spring of 2010, when he heard that a relative raised pheasants, he and his mother came back with a male and a mother, and planned to make a breakthrough by "laying eggs and eggs".

Start an electric blanket to incubate eggs and feel the temperature of eggs with eyelids.

How to hatch eggs into chicks has become the biggest problem. The wild pheasant basically did not cuddle. Liang Ruiguo asked his mother to spend 35 yuan to buy an old hen, but the old hen did not hatch her eggs well. in the end, he decided to do it himself.

Liang Ruiguo dismantled an electric blanket at home, cut it to the size of a carton, groped with his hands, and realigned the heat conduction wires neatly. Because he was worried about the uneven heating of the eggs, he also found a plastic bag and filled it with water as a "hotbed" for hatching, covered with cotton wool.

Hatching mountain eggs need to be kept at about 38 ℃. If the electric blanket is heated for a long time, the temperature will rise, and when the power is unplugged, the temperature will drop. How to control the temperature? This problem is very difficult for ordinary people, not to mention the blind.

Finally, Liang Ruiguo came up with a way. He put the thermometer on the water bag and asked his father to accompany him. When he heated it to 38 ℃, his father told him to quickly unplug the power supply. But you can't let your father keep watch all the time, can you? Liang Ruiguo thought about it again. He picked up 38 ℃ of eggs and pasted them to his eyelids, tried to remember the temperature by perception, and then "liberated" his father.

The electric blanket heats up and cools so fast that it takes more than ten minutes to charge and power off. Liang Ruiguo held a clock in his hand. As soon as it rang in 15 minutes, he picked up the egg and put it on his eyelid to "measure" the temperature.

In Liang Ruiguo's world, although there is no difference between day and night, the 24 days of hatching eggs really let him experience a "day and night", sleep has been cut into countless "15 minutes."

Finally, among the eight or nine breeding eggs, two pheasants broke out of their shells and touched the wet chicks, and he laughed aloud.

Hard development measurement of feeding water and edible fingers in the old house of the sleeping chicken house

The original incubation was so difficult that in retrospect, Liang Ruiguo sighed, "without technology or equipment, it's okay to think about it on your own." Later, for a period of time, he interrupted the incubation.

In the second half of 2010, Liang Ruiguo went to Shijiazhuang to attend a massage training course and met his wife, who is also blind. At the same time, he also bought a thermostat. Change planes, starting from now on.

With high-tech equipment and electric blankets, hatching becomes easier. At the end of 2012, he had about 1000 pheasants at home. Slowly, he bought an incubator.

Using the equipment is very simple for ordinary people, it can be done by pressing a few buttons, but Liang Ruiguo can't see it, so he needs his father's help. Press a few times to show what mode, he silently counted and kept in mind, and then operate independently.

The house where Liang Ruiguo and his family live is only 50 meters away from the chicken house. A small alley, he walks dozens of times a day.

In order to guard the chicks and hatching equipment, he slept in the old house of the chicken coop at night, and only when he heard the chicken crowing and the hum of the equipment could he feel at ease.

The reporter saw that in front of each chicken cage, two plastic troughs were hung with wire to feed water and food. Liang Ruiguo made these with plastic pipes and beverage bottles.

For the blind, it is difficult to control the amount of water and food. Liang Ruiguo puts his finger into the sink or trough every time and measures it. In winter, his fingers are often red, and in severe cases, his fingers are cracked with blood.

Enthusiastic to help send chicks on credit to lead disabled friends to start a business together.

In this way, Liang Ruiguo walked hard on the road of starting a business, and many disabled people also asked him when they saw it.

Liang Ruiguo said that considering that the disabled do not have the ability to work and lead a tight life, he came up with the idea of raising pheasants with everyone.

Now, Liang Ruiguo has set up a farming cooperative, and more than 20 disabled friends take the chicks home from him to raise them.

Most of the time, the disabled friends who come to pick up the chicks have no money left. They are all on credit. They raise the chicks and sell the money, and then they come back to pay the chicks back. Liang Ruiguo doesn't have much money, and all the money for selling eggs is invested in hatching, and now he is living a tight life.

Last year, Liang Ruiguo's only incubator broke down, so he groped himself to make an incubator, which used all the electric fans and light bulbs at home.

Liang Ruiguo not only incubates eggs for himself, but also helps other disabled people hatch eggs for free. This year, about 20 people raised thousands of yuan to buy a new equipment and put it in Liang Ruiguo's henhouse. Everyone can bring the breeding eggs to him, and a month later, they will directly take away the chicks. "he is skilled and warm-hearted!" Feng Li Gang of Zhengding Kong Village has a disability in his leg. He has been working with Liang Ruiguo for more than a year. He keeps praising this "capable" young man.

Feng Ligang said that Liang Ruiguo's physical condition was worse than all of them, but he did a better job than anyone else, which gave many disabled people a lot of confidence.

Liang Ruiguo's father also said that he supported his son's farming and even more supported him to help other disabled people. "although he can't see, he can't do worse than a visible person like me."
