Five points for attention to the selection of temperature and humidity for feeding and epidemic prevention of fattening goslings in winter

Gosling

1. Choose Gosling: healthy Gosling shows moderate weight, good yolk absorption, good umbilical contraction, standing after dried hair, loud call, bright coat color, lively, bright and flexible eyes. Dysplastic, light or overweight, umbilical contraction is poor, yolk absorption is poor, showing a large navel or nail navel, and with blood stains, weakness, sharp and low voice, dry hair, eyes listless. This kind of goslings are difficult to raise and should be eliminated.

2. control temperature: the newly hatched goslings have few fluff, and their ability to regulate body temperature is poor, so it is difficult to adapt to the change of external temperature, so it is necessary to control the temperature. The brooding temperature in winter and spring generally ranges from 28 to 30 ℃, and decreases by 1 ℃ every day after 7 days. When the temperature drops to 16-18 ℃, it can be raised at room temperature.

3. Adjust the humidity: the humidity in the nursery will affect the growth of goslings and easily cause diseases. If the nursery is too dry, the water in the goslings will be released excessively through breathing, resulting in poor absorption of the residual egg yolk in the goslings. The relative humidity of the brooding room is generally 55-60%. After 14 days of age, it is adjusted to 50-55%, and the humidity is adjusted according to the temperature.

4. feeding method: the goslings can eat 24 hours after they come out of their shells. Drink water before eating and add a small amount of glucose or vitamins to clean up the stomach and intestines, eliminate meconium and provide nutrition. Goslings had better eat with half-cooked rice. After 5 days, add a small amount of green fodder to the feed, it is best to cut the green fodder into fine shreds before feeding. After picking, the goslings will sprinkle the feed on the bamboo mat or plastic sheeting and let the geese eat freely. Feed them 6-8 times a day and add less frequently.

5. Attach importance to epidemic prevention: special attention should be paid to epidemic prevention in winter and spring. The goslings were injected with 0.5ml Gosling plague serum 2-3 days after hatching, 1ml diluted Gosling plague vaccine 1ml 5 days later, and 1:50 diluted Gosling plague vaccine 0.5ml 14 days later to prevent Gosling plague. If possible, a vaccine can be injected once to prevent poultry failure. During the feeding period, do a good job of disinfection.
