Goose raising skills to share! If you want to raise a good goose, the following tips are indispensable

Geese are the domestic fowl reared in many areas. Due to high market demand, many areas have developed into large-scale farming. For reproduction, the most important thing to remember is that prevention is more important than cure. You have to be prepared early and don’t do it blindly.

Goose seedlings should be ordered from the goose farm with standard management, pure breed and no infectious disease, and the breed should be selected according to the local market demand. Good goose seedlings must have neat and lively feathers, loud voice, strong legs, clean anus and other characteristics. In addition, geese must be vaccinated with gosling plague, paramyxovirus and other vaccines before breeding, so that the goose vaccine has sufficient maternal antigen protection.

The best time to raise a goose depends on the local temperature, the growth of grass and water plants, and the harvest season of the crop. Therefore, the best time to raise geese is from March to April in spring and from September to October in autumn. The temperature, water, and grass in both seasons are perfect for raising goslings, which have a high survival rate.

Every year from March to April, water and grass resources are abundant, there are many green feed and vegetable residues. Lettuce leaves, for example, are green fodder for goslings. Second, after the summer crop is harvested, wheat and canola fields are good grazing grounds for goslings, so goslings not only grow and develop quickly, but also are cheap to feed.” “Fat geese feeding on grass” is the most economical method of rearing.

In October, after the autumn harvest, geese can graze on rice fields and grassy slopes to eat rice, weeds and grass seeds lost in the fields. The young geese are doing well in this season. According to the weight and appearance of the young goose, the breeding goose can be selected by male and female identification. To… At the end of the second or early second year, they can lay eggs and hatch goose chicks. Generally speaking, stallion geese are raised in autumn. The geese are not only growing well, but they can lay eggs early next spring.

Prepare the goose house. Clean and disinfected: Choose the building with good heat preservation performance as brood room. After the selection, clean up the goose room, whitewash the wall with hot lime, put the cleaned utensils into the incubation room, spray with 0.2% pertussis spray once, then mix with 30ml formalin solution per cubic meter and 15g potassium permanganate, close the doors and Windows, and fumigate for more than 24 hours.

Bedding: Place fine wood chips, crushed fresh straw, and other bedding in the goose shed two days before feeding the geese. And 250 watt infrared lamps, coal stoves and other heating equipment, as well as water POTS and material POTS. Adjust the temperature: a few hours before the gosling enters the room, turn on the heating facility in advance, so that the temperature of the ground and the gosling’s back reaches 28-30℃, and maintain a constant temperature.

The fledgling stage. As the goslings just out of the shell, the most important thing is to do a good job of heat preservation, moisture and food. The temperature should be kept at about 28-30 degrees and the humidity should be controlled at about 55%. The gosling’s temperature can be lowered by about 2 ° C every week until it cools.

If you want to eat, you’re better off choosing foods that are easy to digest, like grass and tasty feeds. Do not bathe the goose in water during the nestling period, and take a shallow bath after a week.

Breeding season. Reproduction begins four weeks after breaking the shell. Geese grow fastest at this time. At this time, they also begin to shed feathers, grow flesh and bones. If it’s summer, overgraze. Pay attention to disease prevention and control, timely vaccination.

At the same time, on the basis of normal intake, add 2-3 times of supplemental feed. During this period, special attention should be paid to the nutrition and collocation of feed, and a combination of roughage and concentrate feed should be required in the feeding process.

In addition to ensuring fertilization rates during egg production, it is necessary to ensure the nutritional supply of the geese. In particular, geese need to be kept in groups. The ratio of male geese to female geese is 1:4. During this period, we need to pay special attention to grazing time. In the morning, we need to graze after the geese have laid their eggs.

The sheds need to be lined with soft straw to entice the geese to lay eggs en masse and prevent eggshell damage. In addition, the laying period needs a long time of light to increase egg production in addition to disinfection, epidemic prevention and a series of other work. Raising geese also requires learning and thinking slowly, and continuing to practice seriously.

Success in raising geese has never been achieved by looking at some data. In the process of raising geese, there will be such and such problems at any time. Only by understanding more about the habits of geese and mastering the relevant knowledge of raising geese in an all-round way can we really raise geese well.
