Breeding methods of insect Chicken

Now the bug chicken is becoming more and more popular in the market, because the nutritional content of the bug chicken is much higher than that of the chicken that often eats feed, which is more beneficial to the human body. In fact, there is no difference between the bug chicken and the ordinary chicken in nature. Just because the feeding methods and feed and other factors are different, then why the chicken taste and taste of bug chicken is better, which is largely related to breeding. So today we will follow the pro-farm network to learn how to raise worms and chickens.

1. Choose breeder chickens

If you want to raise bug chickens well, the choice of breeding chickens is the most basic course. Although all chickens can be turned into bug chickens through the method of raising bug chickens, not all of them can be raised well. so we have to choose bright coat color, size should be more uniform, flexible and robust chicken seedlings, the second is the choice of chicken seedlings as far as possible do not choose inbreeding. This will affect the egg laying rate and the survival rate of the chicken seedlings in the future. finally, the laying rate of the hens that have laid the chicken seedlings will be high, and such chickens will also have certain genetic properties, so they will be better.

2. Site construction

We can build a three-dimensional breeding site for bug chickens, because they usually go to rest only at night, so the rest site adopts a three-dimensional mode, which can save a certain amount of cost. secondly, we have to set up a fence around the farm to prevent bugs and chickens from escaping. At the same time, the farms need to have special areas for insects and chickens to eat, drink water, walk, exercise and bask in the sun, as well as farms and other facilities should be fully prepared. After the construction of the site, it is necessary to carry out disinfection, and only after disinfection can the chicken seedlings be put into the breeding ground.

3. Feeding method

The method of raising is generally a combination of captive breeding and stocking, which is beneficial to the physical and mental health of bug chickens. Feeding needs to be divided into three stages. Chicks are basically kept in captivity. They are fed several times a day, not too much each time. They are mainly fed by drying the bugs into powder and adding some green vegetables and forage grass. When the chicks grow up slowly, then we can release the bugs directly without breaking them, and we can implement the semi-stocking mode for adult bug chickens. Let them find their own food and feed for bugs, vegetables and processed insects. As for the worm chicken entering the egg stage, we generally need to control its food intake, otherwise it will affect the laying rate, usually reducing the amount by 8% on the basis of the original feeding, and then slowly adjust it back when it is time for production.

4. Feeding and management

Feeding management is generally shown in the farm environmental management and other aspects of some things, we should irregularly clean up the feces and food residues in the farm, and carry out disinfection, so as to prevent worms and chickens from being infected with disease. The second is that adult cocks and hens should be raised separately, otherwise it will cause sexual confusion, affect the laying rate and the reproduction of offspring. In the chicken stage, we should carry out fluorescent lighting, so that we can maintain the indoor temperature, and finally, we should pay great attention to the density of breeding, otherwise we will be trampled to death because of overcrowding and group management in different growth periods.

5. Misunderstanding of breeding.

At present, there is still a big misunderstanding in the breeding of bug chickens, that is, many people think that bug chickens need to use fresh bugs, so that they can grow better, but in fact, they are not, because many live bugs carry parasites, which is not only not good for the growth and development of bug chickens, but also causes diseases. Secondly, there are many people think that bug chicken must only eat bugs, this is also wrong, we need to ensure its nutritional balance, so we still need to feed some vegetables and miscellaneous grains and so on.
