With the improvement of people's living standards, people pay more attention to the quality of life and the ecological health of poultry production, which is also an important reason why ecological farming is so hot at present. The breed of chicken raised in this way is better, but there are also many places worthy of our attention in the process of breeding. So, let's give you a brief introduction by the editor.

1. Selection and layout of breeding sites

Ecological chicken farming should choose places with high dryness, flat terrain, good water quality, adequate water sources, convenient transportation and rich forage. The second is to plant in the farming area to improve the local ecological environment, and at the same time to plant some forage grass nearby. In addition, fences should be set up around the farms to prevent chickens from escaping, as well as the harm of rodents and other beasts. Finally, it is necessary to trim the nursery, chicken sheds, rain sheds, and so on, reasonable planning of breeding land, so that resources can be maximized.

2. Variety selection and grouping density

Ecological chicken breeding is also selective for breeds, in order to obtain higher economic benefits, naturally or choose high-quality breeds for breeding. For example, black-bone chicken, grass chicken, Sanhuang chicken, green shell laying hen and so on. These varieties have high meat production and egg laying ability, so they are relatively best-selling at home and abroad. The second is that we should reasonably plan the chicken flock, the breeding scale should not be too large, but also to meet the normal activities of the chicken flock. Finally, ecological chicken breeding attaches great importance to the stocking density, so it is generally best to have 50 to 150 chickens per mu, among which the feeding density should be regulated reasonably according to the proportion of forage and concentrate feeding.

3. Feeding management and daily management

There is a certain difference between the feeding management and daily management in the process of ecological chicken raising and other feeding models. Ecological chicken farming has a wide range of activities, so there are some problems in management, which is not very convenient, so we should do a good job of coordination. Like chicks, we have to keep them indoors for about five weeks before stocking, while for laying hens, we need to increase the nutritional content of the feed and increase or decrease the feed reasonably according to its egg period.

4. Rational grazing and environmental protection

Reasonable grazing is very necessary for ecological raising of chickens, because ecological raising of chickens is basically based on herding, which can improve the quality of chickens. Then we should make rational use of the forage grass in the grazing land and pay attention to the rotation system, which can not only improve the utilization rate of forage grass, but also reduce the harm of diseases and insect pests. Secondly, we also need to pay attention to environmental protection, not because chicken farming causes harm to the environment, otherwise it will be banned by the state, and the loss outweighs the gain.

In fact, we still have a lot of points to pay attention to in the process of ecological breeding, such as not mixed breeding with ducks and geese, can not feed a single feed, can not use red light and so on. Due to the limited energy of the editor, I will not explain it to you one by one here. If you need it, you can leave a message for us. The editor will reply immediately after receiving it.
