Blue Peacock launches "Wealth screen"

The peacock, which has a gorgeous appearance and always speaks for beauty, has now become a good helper for the masses to get rich. In Liuweizi Village, Dushan Town, Juye County, Liu Yicheng's blue peacock breeding base has begun to take shape, with more than 300 blue peacocks roaming, each priced at more than 2000 yuan.

A few days ago, when the reporter walked into this blue peacock breeding base, he saw only blue peacocks strolling in the courtyard and pecking their heads down. Aren't peacocks protected by the state? how can they be kept in captivity? Liu Yicheng, head of the base, told reporters that peacocks can be divided into green and blue, and green peacocks are first-class protected animals in the country, and hunting and killing is strictly prohibited. The blue peacock is a rare semi-herbivorous non-protected animal, which can be raised artificially.

According to Liu Yicheng, blue peacock breeding has just begun in the whole country, and there are not many people raising in our city, and the market prospect is good, so I invested in this industry. "when my son was working in Shanghai, it was rare to see someone raising blue peacocks. Later, he saw on TV that blue peacocks had broad prospects for breeding, so he introduced seedlings to raise them."

Of course, the road of peacock breeding is not plain sailing, and Liu Yicheng has made a lot of efforts. "watching peacocks eat during the day and sleeping with peacocks at night, it can be said that they are together day and night." Liu Yicheng said that by consulting relevant information and accumulating breeding experience, the blue peacock is growing well, and the breeding base is slowly on the right track.

"peacocks like the sun, but they are timid, afraid of loud noises, and need a quiet environment to grow up." Liu Yicheng told reporters that big blue peacocks can lay about 50 eggs a year, and the survival rate of hatching into small peacocks is about 70%. "at present, the number of seedlings on the market has reached more than 200 yuan each, and self-hatching can reduce a lot of costs."

"now the task of raising peacocks is very easy. more than 300 peacocks mainly eat some chicken feed every day, occasionally with some green vegetables and Chinese cabbages. Only two people are enough to 'serve' them." Liu Yicheng said that raising blue peacocks not only requires less manpower, but also the cost of raising is not high. Because peacocks have miscellaneous eating habits and are not picky about food, the cost of raising a peacock is only thirty or forty cents a day.

"it is mainly booked for tourist attractions, and some villagers around them seem to like to buy it and watch it at home." According to Liu Yicheng, a blue peacock generally weighs 10 to 12 jin when he grows up, with an average price of more than 2000 yuan. It is reported that the price of a blue peacock seedling is about 240 yuan, which can be sold in one year.

"many buyers have come to the base to discuss acquisitions, but in order to expand the scale of breeding, I am not going to sell this batch of blue peacocks, and plan to hatch more blue peacocks next year. At that time, villagers who are interested in the surrounding areas can buy seedlings and raise them at home. " Liu Yicheng said cheerfully that he had set up a professional cooperative for raising blue peacocks, hoping to make the cause of raising blue peacocks bigger and stronger, and lead the surrounding villagers to become rich together.
