Hello, teacher, I fed quails in the first year of this year, and now I have reached the peak of egg laying, but the egg laying rate has dropped a lot in the past few days, the consumption of quails has also dropped, the feces pulled are a little thin, and some of them are full of dilute water. there is an increase in sand, soft and white eggs.

A: Hello!

The main factors affecting quail egg laying are:

The physique and age of quails should be strong and disease-free, have a strong appetite and are quails born in the same year. The life span of quails is generally 2 years. Female quails begin to lay eggs at the age of 45 days, and the laying rate decreases after 8 months. Therefore, quails over 1 year old should be eliminated as soon as possible and sold as meat quails after short-term fattening.

Light has a great effect on the laying rate of female quails, and it is necessary to ensure 15 hours of light every day. Because quails like red light, it is best to supplement it with red fluorescence when natural light is insufficient.

Nutrition supply of female quails after laying eggs, female quails have a strong appetite and produce more than 300 eggs a year, so they must provide enough high-quality feed, especially pay attention to the supplement of calcium and phosphorus in diet. In production, formula feed should be fed, with or without whole grain feed as much as possible. the crude protein in formula feed should generally account for about 28% of the feed. The general formula of formula feed: corn 48%, cake 33%, light fish meal 6%, hay meal 5%, shell powder 5%, bone meal 3%, plus 0.3% multivitamin additives.

Quail in breeding environment is changed from wild to domestic. Although it has been domesticated for a long time, it still retains wild habits, such as timidity, fear of noise and so on. Therefore, it is necessary to create a quiet breeding environment for quails. In addition, the number of quail eggs is also related to the temperature and humidity of the environment. When the ambient temperature was lower than 15 ℃, the laying rate of female quails decreased significantly. According to the determination, the suitable laying temperature of quail is 18 ℃ ~ 25 ℃. In order to ensure that quails lay more eggs, the humidity in the house should be controlled at 50%-60%, and enough clean drinking water and chopped green succulent feed should be provided.
