Feeding and management of quail during breeding period

Quail is a kind of bird which integrates meat and eggs, and its meat and eggs are very popular in our country. Its farming area is also very extensive, and its profit margin is also very large. There are many growth stages of quails, among which the breeding period is a more important period, and its management methods will be different. So the editor today brings you the feeding and management methods of quail breeding period, let's have a look!

1. Change the group at the right time

After the quail enters the breeding stage, we have to gradually transfer it to the breeding cage for breeding. Before changing groups, it is necessary to ensure that the breeding cage is the same as the previous living environment as far as possible to prevent quails from being unable to adapt to the environment. When turning around, it is necessary to prevent quails from being frightened and avoid death caused by stress reaction. Then the quails were reared separately according to sex, growth stage and growth ability to ensure the normal growth of all quails.

2. Adjust the environment

As I just said, when changing groups, we should try our best to keep the breeding cage the same as the original living environment. Control the culture density, adjust appropriately according to the change of temperature, reduce the density when the temperature increases, otherwise it needs to be increased appropriately. During the breeding period, it is necessary to ensure that the light time is about 11 hours a day. Then the temperature is controlled at about 25 degrees, which can be appropriately reduced by 5-6 degrees in the middle and later stage. Finally, we also need to do a good job of ventilation, in order to prevent the wind from passing through the hall.

3. Feeding management

In order to control the weight of quails and prevent them from maturing earlier. It can effectively improve the yield and quality of quail eggs, avoid consuming more nutrients and increase the cost of breeding. Therefore, during the breeding period, we should appropriately reduce the amount of feed and the content of protein in the feed. The feed in this period should be mixed with the feed of the young quail and the feed of the breeding stage, and then the feed of the quail can be changed into the feed of the breeding stage.

4. Clustering in time

As mentioned earlier, we should properly do a good job in grouping according to different factors. Because of the different growth stages, there will be the phenomenon of bullying the small and grabbing food. As a result, young and thin quails are unable to absorb sufficient nutrients, affecting the efficiency of breeding. Male and female grouping is usually carried out in about 20 days, which can not only ensure the breeding of good quails, but also ensure the normal growth of all quails. For quails with poor development, special feeding should be carried out to strengthen the growth ability and improve the commercial value.

5. Points for attention

During the breeding period, it is necessary to ensure a hygienic environment for breeding cages to prevent quails from pecking and affecting the growth of quails. Regular quail detection and epidemic prevention work, do a good job in disease prevention. Then observe the growth situation regularly and record the environment, temperature, humidity and light, so as to adjust the feeding method properly. It is necessary to create a good growth environment for quails to avoid unnecessary losses.

The above is a brief introduction to the feeding and management technology of quail breeding period, which is very important. At this time, management is directly related to the growth and laying of quails, so we must pay more attention to feeding and management.
