1. Select a place to build a house: Fire ducks have strong adaptability and can quickly adapt and grow in various environments. However, for artificial breeding, you should try to choose a quiet, non-noisy place with high ground and plenty of sunshine. The soil in the duck house cannot be clay, as clay will make it difficult for turquoise ducks to walk. There must be enough water sources and ponds around to satisfy turquoise ducks' love of water. When building a house, it is necessary to build an adult duck house, a brooding house and a sports ground, and raise the ducklings and adult ducks separately to increase the survival rate of the ducklings. After building the duck house, do a good job in epidemic prevention to prevent the spread of germs, and take various measures to plant duck houses at night, such as water tanks, feed sheds, and anti-escape equipment.
2. Select excellent species: After selecting the land, you need to select excellent turkey duck species. Of course, if you are an old farmer, most of them will use self-saved species. When we select ducks, we should choose ducklings with strong growth ability, good mental outlook, and smooth and bright feathers. Choosing a good species can effectively reduce the pressure on our own breeding. When saving seeds, observe the color and size of duck eggs, try to choose eggs with no impurities on the surface and normal shape as hatching eggs, and then let the breeding ducks hatch. The choice of breeding eggs directly determines the growth ability of the ducklings after they hatch. Only by choosing the right kind can ensure the continuous and efficient production of turkey ducks.
3. Incubation management: After selecting the hatching eggs, it will enter the incubation period. The natural incubation time of turkey ducks is longer. Therefore, in order to increase the incubation speed, we must do a good job in incubation management during incubation. Especially for some farmers who use machine incubation, incubation management is very important. During the incubation period, the surrounding temperature should be controlled at about 35 degrees. Because the eggs have the function of automatically dissipating heat, the temperature in the middle of the eggs will be relatively high, but the two sides will not be as hot as the middle. This is very detrimental to hatching. During incubation, you should always observe the condition of the eggs. If you find that the eggshells are cold, darkened in color, and accompanied by a certain odor. It means that the embryo is dead, and it must be taken out in time at this time.
4. Feeding and management: The feeding habits of breeding ducks are relatively complex, so it is enough to feed poultry-specific feed every day. The number of feedings should not be less than twice a day. The amount of feeding each time is determined according to the weight of the turkey duck. quantity. And it is necessary to manage the turquoise duck's daily drinking water, because the turquoise duck's water needs are different from other ducks, and its demand is relatively large. Therefore, we must ensure that there is water in the tank at all times to ensure the drinking water needs of the turkey ducks. Disinfect the duck house regularly, because turquoise ducks are social animals and like to move in groups, so there will be more feces. Feces can easily lead to the growth of bacteria. Therefore, the disinfection of duck houses is very important.
