Meat duck is specially farmed for the dishes on the table, so the meat must be delicious, taste good, enhance its own meat quality, in order to have a better market. Therefore, it must be managed in place in the daily life management of meat ducks, because the management of meat ducks directly affects the quality of meat ducks after maturity. So how to manage meat ducks in daily life? Let's have a look with the editor.

1. Strengthen ventilation

The meat duck is very sensitive to the air, especially in the high temperature and rainy weather in summer, the permeability of the duck house should be strengthened, which can promote the air circulation in the duck house, take away the heat from the air, and lower the body temperature of the meat duck. Keeping the ventilation in the duck house at all times also greatly reduces the incidence of disease. The ventilation in the house should also be properly controlled at night, because the excessive amount of exercise of the meat duck during the day will make the meat duck use too much physical energy and need a lot of fresh air to recover at night.

2. Shading and cooling

Meat duck is a special water-loving but heat-intolerant animal. Every summer, a large number of meat ducks die because they can not withstand the hot weather, most of which are also caused by improper management of farmers. Therefore, in the summer, we must pay attention to the cooling of the duck house, we can set up a sunshade device on the top of the duck house to prevent direct sunlight, lower the temperature in the duck house, and lower the body temperature of the meat duck in the water during the day. However, it is necessary to expand the scope of their daily activities to avoid producing heat due to overcrowding. Pay attention to keeping the temperature around 20 at night.

3. Reduce the density

Many friends think that ducks have a strong physique, are not prone to diseases, and have a fast growth cycle and a relatively low cost. Therefore, many people will choose the breeding site very casually, and will not pay attention to the scope that the breeding site can bear, so they will choose to increase the density of breeding in order to achieve higher economic benefits. However, this idea must not be implemented, because too close farming will lead to less room for activity of meat ducks, living together will also increase calories, leading to meat ducks extremely prone to diseases such as heatstroke and heat stress. Finally, the quality of mature meat will also decline, affecting its own commodity value.

4. Prevention and treatment of diseases

Keep the duck manure away from the duck house by cleaning the duck house once a day, because if duck manure is accumulated together, it will raise the internal temperature of duck manure and begin to ferment. This environment is the favorite environment for bacteria and parasites, which will breed crazily and have a great impact on the health of meat ducks. It is also necessary to disinfect the duck house regularly, control the temperature and humidity of the duck house, strengthen the permeability, and reduce or put an end to the occurrence of disease in all aspects.

The above is the attention of meat duck management, meat duck breeding should pay special attention to summer and winter, because these two seasons are two extreme seasons. Pay attention to cooling in summer, heat preservation and disease prevention in winter, and ducks like water but are not resistant to moisture, so the duck house should not be too wet, too humid environment will also have a certain impact on the growth of meat ducks.
