The post-90s Ding'an boy raised colorful pheasants and knocked on the door to get rich.

The colorful pheasants raised by Lao Wansong are growing well.

Recently, along the winding path, the reporter walked into the hundreds of millions of rare poultry farms in Longhe Town, which is located in the depths of the betel nut forest, and a simple chicken shed built by a woven net appeared in front of him. Post-90s boy Lao Wansong is carrying a pot of feed into the shed, a colorful pheasant in a crowd, surrounded by the basin, you began to fight for me to grab land to eat.

After a good meal, some colorful pheasants walk leisurely in the shed with their tail feathers wagging, and some rest in place.

After a busy morning, Lao Wansong has to stop for a while. Speaking of the original intention of raising colorful pheasants, Lao Wansong said with a simple and honest smile: "after graduation, I worked in Guangzhou. Once I ate a dish made of colorful pheasants in a restaurant, which was very delicious. At that time, few people in Hainan Province raised colorful pheasants, so I wanted to go back to my hometown to try to raise colorful pheasants. I felt more 'money'."

In June 2015, after returning to his hometown, Lao Wansong saw the betel nut forest all over the mountains in his hometown. After some investigation and market investigation, he found that the market potential for raising colorful pheasants under the forest was huge. He made up his mind to start the entrepreneurial road of breeding colorful pheasants.

After having the idea, Lao Wansong bought relevant professional breeding books and began to learn breeding techniques. He built a simple chicken shed with woven nets in the betel nut forest, and used the network platform to book chicken seedlings from Guangzhou. Buy cornmeal, coarse grains and other raw materials to mix feed by yourself.

"in the early days of breeding, my chicken-raising skills were completely in the state of feeling the stones across the river." Speaking of the difficulties in the process of raising chickens, Lao Wansong felt deeply, "when I encounter difficulties, I can only hold books and inquire about the relevant technical requirements one by one every day."

However, there is still a difference between theoretical knowledge and actual breeding. Lao Wansong encountered a lot of problems not mentioned in books in the process of raising chickens. He was worried bad when he watched many young chickens get sick and have diarrhea one after another.

"as for raising chickens, the methods of raising chickens should be more or less the same." Lao Wansong began to visit a number of local chicken farms and asked his neighbors about the difficulties encountered in raising chickens. After everyone's joint research, it was found that the chicken seedlings had just come to Hainan and did not adapt to the environment and the cold night wind caused diarrhea. After understanding the cause of the disease of the chicken seedlings, Lao Wansong began to rebuild the nursery himself, laying a layer of fine sand in the nursery and installing an insulation lamp to ensure the temperature of the brooding room. Under his careful care, the sick chicken seedlings began to get better.

With the support of his neighbors, Lao Wansong has a "bottom" in his heart.

"at first, I didn't know anything. Every time my neighbors reminded me when to do epidemic prevention and see a doctor for the chicken, I would take a notebook and write down what the symptoms of the chicken were, how to feed the medicine, and what kind of medicine I had. It was all imprinted on my mind over a long period of time." Lao Wansong preached proudly.

In the constant exploration, Lao Wansong gradually mastered the breeding technology, through his unremitting efforts, the feeding of colorful pheasants are growing well.

"the colorful pheasant has only 0.9% fat, and its low fat is also high in protein. It tastes delicious and can be used both for food and medicine." Speaking of the benefits of colorful pheasants, Lao Wansong talked about it. The colorful pheasants he raised adopted the mode of ecological captivity under the forest, and the forest was a natural "gym", which was usually fed with miscellaneous grains such as cornmeal and bran shell, which improved the quality and taste of the chicken.

Seven months later, Lao Wansong sold the first batch of colorful pheasants. Looking at the heavy banknotes in his hand, his heart blossomed with joy.

"colorful pheasants are still relatively rare in the Hainan market, so now my chickens basically do not worry about the market. Generally, there are fixed farm music and regular requests from restaurants, and the sales are still very stable." Lao Wansong said with a smile, "the finished chicken is about 2-3 jin each, and it sells for 40 yuan per catty, and a chicken can have an income of 100 yuan." He happily calculated the economic account.

In 2016, the breeding base listed more than 1000 colorful pheasants, with an income of more than 100,000 yuan. Having tasted the benefits, Lao Wansong was not satisfied with trifles and began to make more long-term plans.

"in raising chickens, the technology is important, and the hardware should not be ambiguous. Only by improving the hardware conditions can the chicken farm really develop. Our current chicken sheds are relatively simple and have poor sanitary conditions. Now the town government has also provided me with 20,000 yuan in support funds. in the next step, I plan to build a tin shed to learn the hatching technology of chicken seedlings. In the future, I can not only produce and sell chicken seedlings, but also sell chicken seedlings, improve the function of the breeding base, and further expand the scale of breeding. " Speaking of this year's plan, there was a bright smile on Lao Wansong's face.
