Breeding technology of apricot flower chicken

Xinghua chicken, also known as rice chicken, has the characteristics of strong disease resistance, wide adaptability, cold resistance and heat resistance. It is easier to raise than ordinary chickens and can bring good economic benefits to farmers. So how to raise apricot flower chicken? Let's get to know it.

1. Feeding method

Apricot flower chickens generally adopt three ways: flat raising on the ground, flat raising on the fence and cages. These three methods have low investment and low labor, but in the rainy season, it is necessary to do a good job in moistureproof and damp and dirty bedding materials, so as not to cause parasitic diseases and respiratory diseases. In addition, we should pay attention to the breeding density, the density is too large for the growth of chickens, in the high temperature period is disadvantageous to heat dissipation, will lead to chicken wilting, suffering from a greater chance of progress, generally not square meters to raise 6 chickens.

2. Feeding method

You usually need to be fed twice a day, each time no more than 1/3 of the nest, because of the fine powder that is usually left after being picked by the chickens. These powders always contain low levels of vitamins and amino acids, and if there are endless leftovers in the nest, it is very likely to cause a deficiency of certain nutrients in the chicken body, so we should pay special attention to it when feeding. The feed of breeder chicken is mainly dry powder, not granular feed, this is because the nutrition of granular feed is high, chickens will eat it up first, and there is no material to eat at other times, there will be phenomena such as feather pecking, anal pecking and egg pecking.

3. Adequate drinking water

Drinking water is also an essential nutrient for chicken growth. When the chicken is undernourished, its digestive system will be poor, blood consistency will also increase, and body temperature will increase, which has a great impact on its growth and producing area. If the water is cut off for one day, the egg production of chickens will be reduced by 1/5, and it will not be easy to recover, so providing adequate and clean drinking water is the key measure to ensure the healthy growth and high yield of chickens. Wash drinking water utensils many times a day and disinfect them at least 1-2 times a week to ensure that drinking water is clean and avoid diseases.

4. Suitable lighting

In the apricot chicken breeding season to ensure adequate light, the appropriate daily light time is 14-16 hours, the daily light time should not be reduced, but also according to the situation of the chicken appropriate increase. If you stop lighting for one night, it will reduce the egg production of apricot chicken, and it will take at least a week to recover. If you can't guarantee the switching of power and light, it's best not to replenish the light manually.
