Matters needing attention in black water pheasant breeding

Black water pheasant is a kind of special rare birds, and now it needs to be raised in accordance with legal procedures, that is, we often say that we need to apply for a certificate. The market price of black water fowl is still relatively high, so there are more and more people raising black water pheasants, so what problems do we need to pay attention to when raising black water chickens? Let's follow the editor to learn about it.

1. Culture environment

The environment where black water chickens are raised is the first place we should pay attention to. Blackwater chickens like to swim in the water, mainly feeding on small fish, shrimp and insects, which means it is best to have ponds, reservoirs or rivers. In addition, the black water chicken cannot be kept dry, otherwise it will die, so it must be wet, and the temperature should not be too high, preferably about 20 degrees. Finally, in addition to water, there is also a need for grass in the farm, so there will be more bugs, so the food of the black waterfowl will be more abundant.

2. Early feeding

The newly bought black water chickens are still very fragile, if there is no good care, the survival rate of breeding is relatively low, so the early feeding is also a point we have to be very careful. In the early stage of breeding, we need to keep the black water chicken warm and feed the black water chicken every day. At this time, the feeding is generally divided into about five times, each time the feeding amount is not very large, mainly on small fish and shrimp, at this stage, we also need to stir up the small fish and shrimp, otherwise the chickens are difficult to digest. When the black water pheasant is free to find food, it can be released.

3. Late stocking

Stocking has a lot of benefits to the growth of black water chickens. First of all, it can promote the growth rate of the black water chicken, and the second is to improve the reproductive ability of the black water chicken. However, we also have a lot of points to pay attention to when stocking, for example, the fence around the farm should be set higher, because although the black water fowl is artificially raised, it still has a certain ability to fly, so it is necessary to prevent the black water fowl from escaping. In addition, although there is a lot of food, especially if there is fish in the pond, the food is even more abundant, but if we want to speed up fattening, we need to feed at least two or three times a day.

4. Sanitary cleaning

In the process of breeding, we also need to pay attention to the sanitary cleaning of the breeding area to prevent the occurrence of diseases. Black water chicken farms will be different from other farms, so we should not only clean up the hygiene of the chicken coop, but also comprehensively clean up other areas of the farm, especially the sanitation of the water body. Because the black water chicken stays in the water longer, if the water body is not cleaned and disinfected, the impact on the black water chicken is very great.

5. Feather carding

When we raise black water fowl, we also need to comb their feathers, which is very important for raising black water fowl. Because the black water chicken has lived in the wetlands for a long time, it is easy to get infected with bacteria in its feathers, so if we do not comb the feathers in time, the black water chicken is very easy to get sick. In order to reduce the occurrence of disease and enhance the physique of black water fowl, we should be more careful in the usual feeding process.

There is a big difference between black water chicken breeding and domestic chicken breeding, so we can not use the thinking of raising domestic chickens to raise black water chickens. That's what the editor wants to share with you today. I hope I can help you.
