How to raise chickens to make money

Chicken is the first of the three major poultry in China, and it has a very large breeding area in our country. Chicken is now second only to pork and other meat products, and now there are two main modes of raising chickens. One is to pay all the breeding funds on their own, and then carry on the substitute maintenance work with the company. The profit margin of the first kind is obviously higher than that of the second kind. So how can we make money if we raise it ourselves? Let's take a look at it with the editor.

1. Construction of chicken coop

First of all, we have to determine our own breeding direction, whether to raise broilers or native chickens, and then do a good job in the construction of the chicken coop. If it is a native chicken, then it is not necessary to be too good, because the native chicken is mainly kept in free range. If it is to raise broilers, then there are many things we need to pay attention to. The chicken coop should be about 30 centimeters above the ground, and then bedding should be laid to prevent the growth of bacteria. The top of the chicken coop should be covered with a layer of straw, with a sloping roof at the top. Then air vents and small holes should be set up at the top, and automatic feeding equipment should be installed in the chicken house conditionally. Finally, we should take good water and electricity measures and secure the purse seine to prevent chickens from escaping.

2. Chicken seedling selection

The choice of chicken seedlings is an important factor in determining whether to make money, because the quality of chicken seedlings is closely related to the overall growth quality of the flock. When we buy chicken seedlings, we can't just look at the price. The mistake many chicken farmers will make is which one is cheaper. Although it does reduce the cost of breeding, it also affects the efficiency of breeding. Therefore, when we select chicken seedlings, we should comprehensively consider various factors such as the size and vitality of chicken seedlings. All kinds of bad chicks such as disabilities, diseases and deformities should be picked out in time, and the quality of chicken seedlings should be strictly required.

3. Feeding in groups

The work of raising chickens in groups has a great relationship with the survival rate of chicks, and the number of chicks per group is generally controlled at about 400. If there are too many, it is easy to stampede and other phenomena, resulting in chicks injured. After buying chicks, male and female should be separated in time, and then reared in groups according to sex. Avoid strong bullying, public bullying and so on in gregarious breeding. And after grouping, we can reasonably feed different feeds according to the different growth conditions of each flock, so as to lay a good foundation for the healthy growth and development of the flock.

4. Feeding management

Feed accounts for the largest proportion of the cost of raising chickens, so if you want to raise chickens to make money, you need to start with feed. When we prepare the feed, it is best to buy some premix, and then learn to configure our own feed, which can not only meet the nutritional needs of chicken growth, but also minimize the breeding cost. Then we also need to master mature feeding management technology, so that when chickens have diseases and other problems, we can make corresponding measures in time to ensure the healthy growth of chickens.

The above is a brief introduction to how to raise chickens to make money. The cost of raising chickens is relatively high, so if we want to make money, we should try our best to reduce the cost of raising chickens, but we must also ensure that all the requirements for chicken growth are met. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. I hope it can help you all.
