The quality of meat duck determines the brokerage benefit how to improve the quality of meat duck

Meat duck

First, ducklings are moistureproof and reduce the incidence of chest and legs.

The moistureproof of ducklings is mainly to reduce the humidity of the ground and air in the nestling room. The main methods of brooding are: 1. Bedding materials are kept flat, and fresh and dry bedding materials are changed frequently. In spring and summer, the ground cushion was changed to online flat breeding, and the water overflowed by the duckling while drinking and playing with water fell off the net, and at the same time, the feces fell under the net, which could significantly reduce the humidity in the house. During the period of rearing, ventilation should be strengthened to reduce the humidity in the house. Due to the strengthening of moistureproof work during the baby-rearing period, the brooding rate has been increased from 90% to more than 98%, and the ducklings are strong, and the incidence of chest and legs has been reduced, laying a good foundation for raising meat ducks.

Second, strengthen the management work to reduce the occurrence of duck body "wool nails"

If the ground of the ducks raised in captivity is wet and muddy, not only the weight gain will be affected, but also the breast and abdomen feathers of the ducks will easily fall off, and their feather follicles will soon grow into new buds as thick as nails, commonly known as "hair nails". It is difficult to depilate during slaughtering, and the skin will also leave larger pores after pulling out the "hair nails", which will affect the carcass quality and greatly reduce the economic benefits of raising ducks. Therefore, the captive breeding site should have a certain slope in design to facilitate drainage, timely elimination of stagnant water in the rainy season, and reduction of breeding density, so as to keep the site dry and clean, so that ducks can have a comfortable environment and improve their physique. Only by ensuring their health can they gain weight quickly and have good carcass quality.

III. "five decisions" should be carried out in management.

That is, fix the person, timing, feed, equipment positioning, set the rules of behavior. In addition, we should often observe the shape, behavior, feeding, drinking water, feces, breathing and other conditions of ducks, find abnormalities, and take corrective or preventive measures in time.
