The price and culture method of peacock seedlings

Peacock is a kind of carnivorous poultry with great development prospect. it has become one of the preferred breeding varieties for farmers because of its low investment, quick results and high profits. it has the characteristics of strong game, high protein, low fat and rich in a variety of amino acids needed by the human body. at the same time, it is also a popular ornamental animal, let's take a look at the peacock seedling price and breeding methods!

How much is a peacock seedling?

The price of a peacock seedling is about 70 yuan 100 yuan, depending on the specification, variety and quantity, etc., usually a shell seedling is about 80 yuan, a week seedling is about 100 yuan, a month seedling is about 120 yuan, a month seedling is about 120 yuan, a peafowl is generally sold by a group, generally a group of 1000 yuan or 1200 yuan, a group (1 male and 4 females) 5000 yuan or 6000 yuan, normally a female peacock with good physique can lay 30 eggs a year.

Breeding conditions of peacocks

1. Site selection: the selection requirements of peacock farms are basically the same as those of domestic chickens. It is best to choose on a half-hillside with shady trees, slightly inclined terrain, half sand and half soil. The environment should be secluded, plant shrubs, plant forage grass, and try to simulate the wild environment to facilitate the domestication and breeding of peacocks.

2. Feed preparation: the feed of peacocks is basically similar to that of domestic chickens, such as sorghum, corn, rice, sesame seeds, perilla seeds, animal feed such as minced meat, eggs, green feed such as forage grass, vegetables and so on.

3. Introduction and selection: before introduction, peacocks should have a comprehensive and multi-faceted understanding of the source of supply, master the basic knowledge of selecting peacocks, and select peacocks with smooth and neat feathers, good spirit, strong feet, unbent toes, good appetite, sensitive response and bright eyes.

Breeding methods of peacocks

1. Brooding equipment: the nestling rearing period of peacocks is 2 months, and artificial brooding is generally adopted. Net raising or cage raising is adopted at the age of 1-20 days. Each net frame is 250 cm long, 200 cm wide and 60 cm high. The cage can be used for chickens.

2. Temperature and humidity: the optimum temperature of peacocks at 1-10 days is 34-38 ℃, 11-20 days 28-26 ℃, 21-30 days 26-24 ℃. After that, the number of feathers can be the same as room temperature, and the relative humidity can be controlled at 60-70%.

3. Feed: Peacock cooked eggs, powder, green feed, bread worms, etc., 4 times a day from January to October, cooked eggs, meat fodder, powder, green feed, bread worms, etc., 3 times a day from November to 30 months, and 3 times a day from 31 to 60 months. Add corn residue, sorghum and so on.

4. Culture density: the breeding quantity of peacocks per group should be 40-50, and the breeding density should be reduced with the increase of age, adopt free feeding and drinking water, keep the environment quiet, prevent alarm, disinfect, disinfect and prevent epidemic, kill rats and prevent animals on a regular basis, and screen the sick chicks in time.

5. disease prevention and control: peacocks have strong adaptability and disease resistance, but when environmental conditions and feeding management are not ideal, they are also prone to white dysentery, avian cholera, coccidiosis, pinworms, chicken Newcastle disease, fowlpox, Marek's disease and so on. Attention should be paid to prevention and control.

The four Seasons Management of Peacock

1. Spring management: spring is the breeding season of peacocks, with a large amount of activity and food intake, so the diet should be adjusted in time, pay attention to supplement protein, vitamins and mineral feed, and set up egg boxes (paving sand or soft grass) at the corner.

2. Summer management: high temperature, rainy and humidity in summer, sudden decrease of peacock feed intake, decrease of egg production and gradual cessation of production. We should feed more concentrate, increase green feed, prevent mildew, and do a good job of cleaning, heat prevention and cooling.

3. Autumn management: the temperature drops in autumn, the light shortens, and it is the normal physiological molting period of peacocks. In order to reduce or stop oil feed in the diet, compulsory molting should be adopted. Neat molting can be achieved through proper control of water, feed and light.

4. Winter management: the weather is cold in winter. In addition to keeping warm, increase the amount of grain and oil seeds in the diet, spread some bedding on the ground, pay attention to ventilation while keeping warm, and carry out epidemic prevention and control of parasitic diseases in the off-production season.
