Feeding management technology for meat geese

The production of meat geese has the advantages of less investment, quick return, and profitability. In general, meat geese can weigh more than 3 kilograms from 9 weeks to 10 weeks of age and can be put on the market for sale. Products are processed meat geese and their products. Geese (also known as young goslings) are small geese with shells ranging from 0 days to 21 days of age and are characterized by sparse villus, delicate body, poor body temperature regulation, poor digestive function, and adaptability to the external environment. Poor disease resistance, if you do not strengthen feeding and management, can easily lead to morbidity and death. Therefore, the breeding of geese is an important part of the production of geese. To reduce the early mortality rate of geese and increase the survival rate during brooding, the following comprehensive technical measures must be taken:

The choice of breeding season should be appropriate

Feeding meat gooses must consider the local climate, the growth of green grass such as grasses and aquatic plants, and the timing of harvesting rice and rice, in order to shorten the feeding period and reduce the cost of raising the animals.

Prepare for your baby

The brooding house is required to be warm and dry, with good heat preservation performance, air circulation, and no typhoon, so the brooding house needs to repair the doors and windows and brooding equipment two weeks before the hatching. Go into the geese 2 to 3 days before, clean the brooding house and sterilize with a Disinfectant: The walls are sterilized with 20% lime milk, the conditional ground is covered with cement, and 2% hot alkali or 5% bleach is used. The suspension is sprayed and sterilized. The sealed brooding house can be fumigated and sterilized. The sink, feeding trough and utensils are cleaned and moved into closed doors and windows. The room temperature is raised to 20° C. or above, the relative humidity is 75%, and then every cubic meter. Metric room with 15 grams of potassium permanganate, formalin 30 ml, fumigation closed doors and windows for 48 hours, the sealing conditions of the brooding house feed bowl, drinking fountains and other first with 2% sodium hydroxide solution spraying or washing, Then rinse with water. The litter (grass) is exposed to sunlight for 1 to 2 days before use. At the same time, we must also prepare good feeds and necessary medicines. 1 day to 2 days before the start of the brood, the brooding house should be warmed up.

Scientific tide and open food

The first drinking of goslings after hatching is commonly called “tidal mouth”, also known as “drinking” or “water”, and the first time the material is eaten is commonly called “opening food”. It is necessary to adopt the principle of first watering and then eating.

Tide mouth

After goose hatching, 16 hours to 36 hours, generally 24 hours is appropriate. When 2/3 goslings in the brooding room have a standing walk, a neck opening mouth, and a feeding desire, the tide mouth is carried out. To drink clean warm water, water temperature to 25 °C is appropriate, you can use 0.05% potassium permanganate solution or 5% to 10% glucose water and water containing the amount of vitamin B complex solution. Put the goslings into the basket and dip the goose baskets into clean shallow water (appropriate for not swamping the goslings of the goslings). Allow the goslings to move freely and drink water for 3 minutes to 5 minutes. If some goslings do not Drinking water, the breeder can catch the goose's head and press the mouth several times into shallow water to let it learn to drink. Then, put the goose basket out of the water into a warm place and let the goose manage to dry down. Small basins can also be used to hold the tide in the room. After several adjustments, the goslings can freely drink water.

Open food

Whether it is appropriate to eat time is directly related to the growth and survival rate of goslings. After boiling water, you can start eating. The food you eat is generally washed with clean water and steamed into eight minutes of cooked broken rice, or soaked with boiling water for about 2 hours of non-sticky millet, drained before feeding, when you eat The feed can be sprinkled on the kraft paper, straw mat or plastic cloth firstly, or some goslings can be withdrawn to induce the goslings to feed. Slowly, the whole group of goslings will come for feeding. The first feeding is not required. The goose is full, as long as you can eat a little feed. After 2 hours to 3 hours, use the same method to adjust, after several adjustments the goslings will automatically feed. Then feed green feed. Green fodder requires fresh, young and juicy, with lettuce leaves and bitter leeks as the best. The green material should also be cleaned, drained, and cut into filaments. This will not only meet the nutritional needs of goslings, but also prevent diarrhea caused by eating too much green material.

During the brooding stage, the feed of goslings should meet the needs of their growth and development. The ratio of concentrate feed to green feed should be approximately 1:2 before 10 days of age, and the proportion of green feed should be gradually increased. The proportion after 10 days of age should be changed to 1:4. , concentrate feed should be full price feed. Feeding times should be small and multi-meal feeding: 0 days old to 10 days old, about 6 times a day (2 or 3 times a night feeding); 11 days to 20 days old, 6 times a day (2 times a night feeding ) After 21 days of age, feed 4 times a day. As the age increases, the number of feedings may decrease, and care should be taken to supply sufficient drinking water.

Do a good job of insulation and moisture protection

Insulation

The temperature has a great influence on the growth and survival rate of the gosling. During the brooding period, the temperature should not be high or low to avoid the disease of the goslings. According to the physiological characteristics of the goslings, the suitable ambient temperature should be created. Under normal circumstances, the basic requirement of brooding temperature is the first week of 29 °C ~ 26 °C, after the weekly drop of 2 °C, but the temperature difference between day and night can not exceed 2 °C, the temperature dropped to 20 °C after relying on temperature, temperature control to be flexible .

Moisture proof

Humidity has an adverse effect on the health and growth of goslings. If the humidity is too high, the pathogenic microorganisms are likely to survive in the rearing environment, causing coccidiosis, aspergillosis, and E. coli diseases; if the humidity is too low, Sheen Dry, lost water in the body of goslings, fragile hair, dry toes, loss of appetite, goslings affected by cold, susceptible to respiratory diseases, so the brooding house should maintain appropriate humidity, do not allow the water to spill, should always clean the pad Moisture should be promptly removed, replaced with clean, dry new litter, enhanced ventilation, and keep the room dry. It is generally required that the relative humidity of the broiler goose house is between 65% and 70% of the first week of age, and the second week of age should be reduced to 65% before it can be maintained at around 60%.

Reasonable weak group

Strong and weak grouping is to single out weak and sick youngsters. In order to avoid weakness, diseased young people are crushed, crushed, starved to death due to eating, drinking, and slow movement. The diseased chicks should be treated and carefully reared. Before the young goose is boiled and eaten, the first grouping should be carried out according to the hatching time and the physical fitness. The different insulation systems and the boiling water and opening time should be given. The second day after the start of eating, the goslings should be based on the feed intake of the goslings. In the second grouping, the goslings that do not eat or eat very little are separated and fed; during the brooding period, groups are grouped regularly according to the physical strength of the goslings and the body weight, and it is generally advisable to use 100 to 150 per group. Within the group, several sub-sections shall be divided into several groups. Care shall be taken to arrange suitable breeding densities. Normally, the number of rearing per square meter is 20 to 25 for 1 day to 5 days, and 15 to 20 for 6 days to 10 days. 11 15 to 15 days of age and 8 to 10 days after 15 days of age.

Control the lighting of the brooding house

Appropriate lighting can promote goslings to feed and drink water. During the brooding period, lighting should be switched on during the day and night. The light intensity requires a 40 watt light bulb per 40 m2 brooder and the light bulbs hang in the middle of the house. About 2 meters above the ground, 18 days to 20 days can gradually reduce the lighting time.

Do a good job of health and epidemic prevention

Doing a good job of sanitation and epidemic prevention is very important for improving the vitality of goslings and ensuring the health of gooses. Sanitary and epidemic prevention includes the management of environmental disinfection and sanitation, personnel and equipment, and the immunity and disease prevention of goslings.

Do a good job in health work

Keep the brooding house clean and dry, perform a thorough cleaning once a day (special attention should be paid to the timely removal of feces, garbage, and replacement of litter) and disinfection. Disinfectant can be used alternately with 100 toxamate, peracetic acid, caustic soda, bleach, etc.; Grooves, sinks and utensils should be scrubbed with 2% caustic soda solution and rinsed with clean water before use to ensure that the goslings are clean and hygienic. At the same time, animals such as rats and snakes should be prevented from injuring goslings.

Vaccination against immunization plan

If we want to improve the survival rate of brooding, we must adhere to comprehensive prevention and control measures that are "preventive and preventative." One-day-old, no maternal antibody goslings, each muscle or subcutaneous injection of anti-small geese paraquat immunization serum 0.5 ml to 1 ml, for mothers with maternal antibodies goslings, temporarily injected with hyperimmune serum, in the disease High-incidence areas should be injected with anti-goat sera high-immune serum or high-immunity yolk antibody 1 ml to 3 ml. From 7 days to 10 days of age, 0.5 ml of gosling geese vaccine (diluted with 50 ml of physiological saline) was injected into each muscle or subcutaneous injection. In the high-incidence area of ​​the disease, gosling hyper-immune triple serum or hyperimmune yolk antibodies can be directly injected. 1 ml to 3 ml, and timely monitoring of geese antibody levels. At the age of 10 days to 14 days, each geese was intramuscularly injected with 0.3 ml to 0.5 ml of paramyxovirus and eel oil vaccine. At 60 days of age, each goose was intramuscularly injected with 1.0 ml of inactivated chicken cholera inoculum.

For the prevention of bacterial diseases such as Salmonella, Escherichia coli, Pasteurella, gosling influenza, etc., 0.02% florfenicol, electrolytic multidimensional, 0.1 can be added to the drinking water of 0-day to 7-day-old goslings. % of vitamin C.
