Pumpkin seed, an ingenious use in raising native chickens

As the native chicken is always in contact with the soil, coupled with some pigeon fanciers are busy with their own work or life, ignoring the cleaning of the local chicken activity site, resulting in some native chicken suffering from parasitic diseases.

And some native chickens also have a lot of attention to fighting insects, some according to feces to deworming, some according to the season to deworming, some according to the mental state of native chickens, fat and thin body to deworming. The drugs used are getting more and more advanced and better.

The use of high-grade good medicine is good, but the intake of native chicken is difficult to grasp, less effective, large amount of local chicken body hurt. A breeding friend used insect repellent, did not grasp the amount, as a result, all the feathers of the native chicken exploded, and the feathers of the smaller native chicken were cut off from the root.

Share the tricks of an old veterinarian today. He never uses insect repellent, but uses Dorsey pumpkin seeds that everyone gives up every time they cook. The old veterinarian said that he had raised native chickens for many years and had never given them an anti-insect medicine, but the pumpkin seeds had never been broken and the native chickens were in a good state of mind.

Supplement the nutrition of chickens and improve their immunity

Pumpkin seeds contain a lot of fatty acids, amino acids, vitamins and other minerals. Feeding pumpkin seeds to chickens can supplement the nutrition of chickens and improve the immunity of chickens.

The fatty acids in pumpkin seeds can provide energy for chickens; the amino acids in pumpkin seeds can promote the production of immune proteins and improve the immunity of chickens; in addition, pumpkin seeds also contain vitamins.

Generally speaking, pumpkin seeds are beneficial to the growth and development of chickens and improve their ability to resist stress.

Get rid of parasites in the body

If the chicken is infected with tapeworms and roundworms, there will be white and transparent eggs in the feces. After the autopsy of the dead chicken, it was found that there were large worm bodies, bleeding and damage in organs and tissues. Parasites absorb nutrients from chickens, causing them to lose weight, decrease their resistance and lose spirits.

At this time, feeding pumpkin seeds to chickens can drive out taeniasis and ascariasis. Because the amino acid in pumpkin seeds can paralyze parasites.
