Growth stage of White-feathered broilers

White feather broiler is one of the most common broiler breeds in China. It is also the highest degree of livestock and poultry breeding in China. The growth performance of white-feathered broiler is very good, the meat is fresh and tender, and it is rich in nutrition, which is welcomed by many people. Therefore, there are more and more farmers now, and when we breed white-feathered broilers, we should first understand its growth stage. So the editor brings you the growth stage of white-feathered broiler today. Let's have a look!

1. The early stage of brooding

The pre-brooding period of white-feathered broilers refers to the chicks that reach the age of two weeks after breaking their shells. The early stage of brooding is not only the most vigorous growth stage of white-feathered broilers, but also a very important growth period. White feather broilers in the early stage of brooding need a lot of high protein and amino acids. It can improve the appetite of chicks and enhance the digestion and immunity of white-feathered broilers. Feeding should be based on the principle of feeding more and less, and because the chickens are younger at this stage. The types of enzymes in the digestive tract are not very many, and the content is not large. Therefore, its digestibility is relatively large, so the feed should be based on digestible high-quality energy protein feed.

2. The later stage of brooding

The late stage of brooding refers to the chicks from two weeks old to four weeks old. White-feathered broilers in this period is also a key stage of growth, in this stage, the bone and muscle growth of white-feathered broilers is the most critical. Therefore, we should focus on the supplement of high protein and energy, because the growth of bones and muscles has a great demand for these two nutrients. However, at this time, the digestive ability of the chicks is gradually strengthened, so the energy feed can be properly increased, and some crude protein feed can also be fed appropriately.

3. The middle stage of the chicken

The middle stage of the chick is mainly in the period of one week in the later stage of brooding. The middle stage of chicken is the key period for the rapid development of internal organs of white-feathered broilers, and the food intake of white-feathered broilers will increase greatly at this time. Entering the peak period of growth and development, the absorption and transformation of feed are also gradually strengthened. And the daily gain of white-feathered broilers is also expanding. Therefore, in order to ensure the development of bone and cardiovascular system of white feather broilers, and increase the fat content. At this time, we should pay attention to improve the energy level and appropriately reduce the protein content to promote the rapid weight gain of white-feathered broilers.

4. The later stage of the chicken

After the middle stage of the chicken, it is the late stage of the chicken. The later stage of the chicken will continue until the time of the fencing, in the later stage of the chicken, it is the stage of rapid body weight gain of white-feathered broilers. At the same time, the fat of white-feathered broilers will gradually precipitate, and the fat precipitation ability at this time is the strongest. Therefore, we should still pay attention to the supplement of energy, but at this stage, the protein and amino acid content of white-feathered broilers will gradually decrease.

The above is a brief introduction to the growth stage of white-feathered broilers. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. Thank you for your reading and support.
