The night management of ducks is closely related to the egg production rate. In order to produce more eggs, duck night management should grasp the following points:
Keep the venue quiet. Ducks are sensitive and timid. The ducks frightened each other and shouted, shouted and swooped. In particular, in case of fright at night, they could easily produce shelled eggs or soft shelled eggs the next day. After being frightened by the ducks, the egg production rate of the light population dropped by 5%, and the weight was 30%. Some even produced soft shell eggs for three to four days in a row. Therefore, beware of animal pests at night to avoid frightened ducks.
Artificially add light. Light can promote the metabolism of ducks, increase appetite, light stimulation glands can promote the secretion of female duck follicle and ovulation hormones, accelerate the development of follicles and ovulation, increase egg production. The normal lighting of laying ducks takes about 16 hours a day. Due to the lack of natural light, artificial lighting must be supplemented at night, so that natural light and artificial light supplements take up to 16 hours. The specific approach is: every square meter of duck house with 4 watts -5 watts of light bulbs installed 1.8 meters to 2 meters from the ground, every morning and evening to switch lights regularly, the time to add light to be constant, can not be short, when early late.
Fill night food. The metabolism of ducks is strong and they feel hungry in the middle of the night, so the ducks have the habit of feeding at night. To this end, water must be supplied and supplemented at night to ensure that the ducks are not hungry, thirsty, and unfamiliar, so as to facilitate the production of more eggs.
The drake and the mother duck separate overnight. The physiological needs of laying ducks are closely related to laying. In order to ensure that the ducks often have a strong desire to mate, ducks and ducks should be separated overnight to prevent ducks from harassing the ducks. If the ducks are separated at night and they are put into the mother duck group in the early morning of the next day, the female ducks will be eager for courtship, and will be chasing into the water to chase and draw male ducks for mating. In the water, the duck duck clings to the back of the female duck. Because of the buoyancy of the water, the female duck feels comfortable and helps increase the egg production rate.
Keep the duck house dry. Although the duck is a water bird, it requires "see wet see dry." Such as high temperature and humidity in the house, a large number of microorganisms breed, easy to induce disease. In a low temperature environment, the humidity is too high and it is easy for the duck to catch cold due to excessive heat loss. Therefore, keep the house dry. Ducks have the habit of laying eggs in grass nests. In addition to grass mating on the entire site, grasses are also placed on the four corners of duck houses to facilitate egg production.
