The investment funds for pheasant breeding projects need not be too large. To raise 1000 pheasants, it is necessary to build a simple henhouse, occupying about 300 square meters of land. The cost of a henhouse is about 5,000 ~ 6,000 yuan, and the pheasant seedlings 1000×3 yuan/feather = 3,000 yuan, plus other facilities such as sink, trough and brooding box. Cages for commercial chickens are not available in the market, and can be purchased as chicken cages or pigeon cages, and each farm can customize it according to the actual situation and local resources. Because the heat preservation facilities for brooding are more demanding than ordinary chickens, it is necessary to prepare brooding equipment, such as brooding racks, brooding cages, electric heaters, brooding umbrellas, etc., and an incubator is also needed to invest in seedling farms.

the analysis of profit

The key to the profit of pheasant breeding lies in the survival rate and sales price, and the survival rate has a great relationship with the early brooding period. The sales price is also related to the market, sales strategy and breeding mode where the farmers are located. According to the analysis, the cost of a chicken in a commercial pheasant farm with a survival rate of 80% is about 15.5 yuan, and there is still a small profit at the current market price. However, raising pheasants to earn more and earn less depends on the sales price. Some farmers cut off their beaks in order to prevent pheasants from fighting, while others did not. The price of the former is lower than that of the latter, with a difference of 10 yuan ~20 yuan.

Generally, chickens can be put on the market after 70 days after hatching, and the 100 day reaches nearly 1.5 kg. Breeding chickens can lay eggs for more than 5 months, and the annual number of eggs can reach 60 ~ 130. If the fertilization rate, hatching rate and survival rate of 100 eggs are 85% and 90%, 60 chickens can be produced.
