Night tube promotes the high yield of laying duck

Egg duck is a main direction of duck breeding, which has different breeding areas in different parts of our country. The most important thing in raising laying ducks is how to improve the laying rate of laying ducks and promote high yield. Many friends will strengthen management during the day, in fact, the management work at night is also very important to promote the production of egg ducks. The following editor brings you the night management method of egg duck breeding, let's have a look!

1. Keep quiet

Egg ducks are relatively timid, sensitive to changes in the environment and easy to be frightened. When frightened, egg ducks will swoop and sing and collide with each other. Especially when laying eggs at night, it is easy to cause duck eggs to break or produce soft-shell eggs. After being frightened, ducks will seriously reduce the laying rate and the quality of eggs, resulting in bad eggs such as soft-shell eggs for several days in a row. So keep the farm quiet at night to prevent the ducks from being frightened.

2. Artificial supplementary light

Light is the relationship factor to ensure the metabolism of ducks. appropriate light can increase the appetite of ducks, promote the secretion of follicle hormone for ovulation, promote the growth of follicles, and improve the laying rate. The average daily light demand of egg duck should be about 15 hours a day. If the natural light is insufficient, artificial light supplement work should be carried out at night to meet the light demand of egg duck growth. Several light bulbs can be set up in the duck house, and the lights can be turned on regularly every day to keep the lighting time constant. Promote the growth of laying ducks and increase egg production.

3. Supplementary feeding at night

Ducks have a strong metabolic function and usually need to eat at night, otherwise they will feel hungry and have a certain impact on egg production. And ducks also have the habit of foraging at night, so we still need to do a good job of supplementary feeding at night. Ensure adequate and clean drinking water and feed, let the duck free and timely, prevent the duck from insufficient feed at night, and reduce the laying rate.

4. Spend the night apart

The sexual needs of ducks have a direct impact on duck egg production, so we want to ensure that laying ducks have sufficient courtship desire. In the evening, the ducks should be raised separately according to the male and female, so as to prevent the male duck from sexually harassing the female duck to lay eggs and spend the night. Then the male ducks are put into the female flock during the next day to mate.

5. Avoid wetting

Although ducks like water, the duck house should not be too wet and should be kept dry and wet. If the temperature and humidity in the duck house is too high, it provides conditions for the growth of microorganisms and is easy to cause a variety of diseases. In a low-temperature and high-humidity environment, ducks will produce cold stress reaction and are prone to cold and cold. Therefore, keeping the duck house dry is the key to ensure the healthy growth of ducks. And ducks lay eggs in grass nests, so we also need to lay straw in the duck house to facilitate duck laying.

The above is a brief introduction to night management to promote the yield of ducks. The night management of ducks is very important. It is closely related to the laying rate, so we must pay more attention to it. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. Thank you for your reading and support.
