High-yield Management techniques of Egg Geese in Spring

Female geese are called egg geese from the beginning of laying to elimination. In terms of management, the female goose moves slowly during the laying period, so it is only advisable to follow and not rush when grazing. Take as few slopes and uneven roads as possible, so as not to cause peritonitis caused by bleeding in the abdomen and fallopian tubes; collect breeding eggs in time, and some geese are found to lay eggs during grazing. If you are unwilling to follow the herd, shout loudly, search for nests, move restlessly, etc., you should hurry back to the house or carry it back to the goose shed to lay eggs, especially carefully observe the female geese at the stage of primary birth to prevent the laying of eggs in the field and in water. During the laying period, the light time of geese should not be less than 13 hours per day, and the peak period of egg production should be kept at 15-16 hours.

Don't graze too far.

Geese are herbivorous waterfowl, and those who have stocking conditions should not put egg-laying geese too far away, because geese have the habit of returning to their nests to lay eggs. If they see that the goose does not eat grass, its neck is elongated and singing is a sign of love for the nest, it is necessary to drive it back to the shed to lay eggs.

Provide enough feed

Four weeks before laying eggs, they were fed with a mixture of 25% grain and 70% grass leaves, in which bean cakes were added to make the crude protein level 15%-16%. Each animal was fed 250-300 grams a day, and sufficient high-quality roughage was fully provided. such as blighted grain, hay powder and so on. If there are stocking conditions, give priority to grazing and feed a small amount of concentrate properly.

Add night food.

Night feeding is an important measure to improve the laying rate, especially in the early laying period and laying period, night food must be fed once or twice a night, which can produce 40 ~ 80 eggs a year.

Keep the goose.

In general, geese can be used for 3 ~ 4 years, and male geese should be selected and kept. Because male geese are aggressive, it is best to group before laying eggs (that is, in the breeding season), so as to avoid disturbance caused by temporary grouping and affect the conception rate of laying geese. The male-female ratio of geese is 1 ∶ 6.

Artificial assisted mating

The goose likes to mate on the water, and the fertilization rate is high, and the artificial auxiliary mating method can also be adopted. the method is to hold the goose's feet and wings in hand to attract the male goose to approach. When the male goose steps on the back of the female goose, he can hold the goose in one hand and lift the tail wing of the female goose in the other to facilitate mating. After several times of training, the male goose will take the initiative to approach mating when he sees that the goose has caught the female goose, and every time the female lays eggs, he will have to mate artificially. In order to improve the fertilization rate of egg geese.
