Rapid fattening method of squab

In pigeon breeding, some small pigs tend to fatten pigeons, which often leads to lower quality, less competitiveness in the market, and lower prices, affecting earnings. For the situation to be corrected in time, pay attention to pigeon fattening measures, let's take a look at the fattening methods of squab.

1. Feed the parent pigeon

For a period of time after squab comes out of its shell, squab is fed by parent pigeons, and only by relying on the careful care of parent pigeons can squab grow and develop, so if you want suckling pigeons to grow well, you need to feed them well. During the lactation period of squab, it is necessary to strengthen the nutritional supply of parent pigeons and provide high-quality feed. Legumes should account for about 60% of the total feed ratio, and other nutrients should be supplemented, such as adding cod liver oil to drinking water every day. In the parent pigeon breast-feeding should be carefully observed to prevent the phenomenon of partial feeding, resulting in a balanced development of some squab size and reduce the commodity rate.

2. Artificial feeding

Artificial feeding method is a fattening method in the late growth stage of squab, it can also improve the fecundity of pigeons, choose pigeons with a daily weight of more than half a jin in 15-17 days. The fattening feed is prepared by a professional formula, then the fattening feed is mixed with hot water to make a paste, and the feed is fed into the squab bag with a feeder. Feed the pigeon quickly and lightly to avoid harming the squab. Feed 50-100g each time, 3-4 times a day. After feeding, place the squab in a dark place in the pigeon house and let it rest and fatten naturally.

3. Supplement nutrition granules

During the rapid growth of squab, the requirement for nutrition is also very high, which may lead to malnutrition caused by rapid growth. Supplementary feeding of nutrients can be taken to supplement nutrition to achieve the purpose of rapid fattening. Nutrition granules can be purchased. Can also be self-made, can be used fish meal, milk powder, bone meal, auxin each 50 grams, and then with some other nutrients prepared with honey, and then rubbed into small particles, can be dried. Feeding 2-3 tablets 2-3 times a day for more than ten days can increase the weight of squab by 100-150 grams.

4. Plucking

When the squab is half a month old, when its feathers grow very fast, it will consume a lot of physical energy and nutrition, resulting in squab thin, unable to achieve the role of fattening. Therefore, at this time, the main wing feathers and tail feathers of squab are removed to reduce the consumption of physical energy and nutrition of squab and stimulate the growth of meat.
