Boer goat breeding technology

Breeding Boer goats needs to do a good job in sheepfold construction, and the dry environment is the most suitable. Separate ewes from rams at the initial stage to avoid hurting lambs. Daily hygiene needs to be cleaned every day, diet can increase some high-protein food.

Breeding techniques of Boer Goat

1. Sheepfold construction

The sheepfold should choose a relatively dry place for construction, if it is relatively humid, the bottom should reserve a certain height for its excretion, so as to achieve the effect of separating excreta from the rest area. In order to prevent the sheep in the two adjacent breeding areas from fighting with each other, a solid wall should be used in the middle. The trough should be larger to avoid spilling a large amount when feeding, and the sink is on the oblique top of the trough, but the non-vertical direction cannot coincide with the trough to avoid moisture entering the trough.

2. Culture management

Ewes and rams are managed separately at the initial stage of breeding, and rams have a certain grumpy temper, which is easy to hurt lambs. Every time you release the sheep, you should also pay attention to separate them, and the number of rams should not be too large each time, otherwise it will easily lead to fights. Ewe breeding area needs to be cleaned every day during daily cleaning, so as not to cause some diseases in young sheep. The ram can be a little longer, once every 2-3 days. The feces below should be cleaned by Bao Zheng every 5-7 days, and need to be washed with water after cleaning.

3. Food feeding

Feeding is an important means of fattening Boer goats, with a small amount of multiple meals in summer, about 3 times a day, and about 2 times in winter. The initial feed should be a little more hydrated, while the later feeding should add more high-protein items, such as putting some soybeans in the feed. A small amount of salt can be added to the water in summer for Boer goats to drink when they eat.
