1. Pay attention to choose those with plump muscles, delicious meat and strong compression resistance. Control the temperature. The key to incubating eggs is temperature. If the temperature is not well controlled, chicks are prone to problems. After all, chickens have just hatched, their feathers are not full, and they are sensitive to the outside world. It is suggested that the brooding temperature should be controlled at 35~38℃, and then decrease by 2℃ every week until it drops to 25℃. Excellent varieties are not only the basis for raising high-quality broilers, but also help to improve disease resistance and reduce mortality. When picking chickens.
2. The native chicken can adapt to the outside temperature after brooding. At this time, it can be dispersed to outdoor forests and grasses for breeding. At first, we should feed the chickens, gradually reduce the feeding amount, and finally reduce it to only one meal at night. Chicken raising is in the grazing stage. Give priority to the free foraging of native chickens, pick some leaves, grass and seeds to feed at ordinary times, and use miscellaneous grains when you go home at night. The limited cordyceps sand in the forest can't meet the needs of raising chickens. Feeding tanks and water tanks should be set at fixed locations in the fence, supplemented every night, clean drinking water should be supplied all day, and sheds should be built for chickens at night or in rainy days.
3. The local chickens should choose the appropriate brooding season, so that free-range chickens can graze. According to the climatic characteristics of each mountain area, it is generally best to choose to breed chicks in March-June. Because the temperature is from low to high and the light is sufficient during this period, it is beneficial to the growth and development of chickens and improves the survival rate of brooding. In the stage of brooding and feeding, the feed supply and supplement of chicks and adults should be ensured according to the nutritional needs of chickens in the growth stage. Before grazing, it is generally required to feed 5-6 times a day, and at the same time ensure enough clean drinking water. After entering the stocking period and the free predation ability is strong, the artificial feeding can be gradually reduced to 2-3 times a day. Pay attention to feed less in the morning and more at night. Raising chickens requires more environment, because native chickens are free-range, and there must be enough space for them to run.
