Turkey breeding techniques

Turkey scientific name spit chicken, also known as the seven-sided bird, native to the Americas, is a kind of high-grade wild game rare meat that is imported from abroad. Turkey, with its large size, rapid growth, strong disease resistance, and high lean meat ratio, attracts people's attention. It can be compared with broiler chickens and is known as a "meat making machine." The main points of its feeding technology are as follows:

First, brooding. Newborn turkeys are insensitive, squeamish, and chilly. The material quality should be good, the light should be strong, and need extra care. Within 4 weeks of age, the stocking density on the grass surface should be 20-25/m2. 1-4 days best full daylight. After 5 days of age, it can be gradually reduced to 14 hours of light. Brooding room temperature, within a week to maintain at 35-37 °C. After that, it can drop 1-2 °C per week until it is warmed. Childish diets require high protein and high energy. The feed formulation during the brooding period is: cereal feed 46%, bean cake 38%, bran 3.3%, fish meal 6.4%, loquat leaf powder 3%, bone meal 2%, calcium carbonate 1%, salt 0.3%, appropriate addition of trace elements, vitamins, etc. . The young turkey is pungent and spicy. Some fodder such as onion leaves, garlic leaves, and leeks can be properly added to the feed to help it digest and increase appetite. At the same time, it can also play a certain inhibitory effect on germs.

The young chicks on the first day after hatching are best spent in the nest. Eat the next day. It should be supplemented with teasing and giving clean water around 20°C. Feed 5-6 times a day in the first week, 4 times in the day and 1-2 times in the evening. After 4 weeks, it can be changed to feeding 4 times during the day and not feeding at night. Starting from the brooding, several small piles of sand can be placed on the corner of the brooding bed and allowed to feed freely.

Second, bred. The mother turkey is 8 weeks old. After the male turkey is 10 weeks old, it begins to enter the rearing period. After the brooding period, the turkey's physique and disease resistance have been strong, and the general temperature difference has little threat to them. In order to meet the needs of its fast-growing meat, diets can be fed with more carbohydrates to maintain high energy. Protein levels can generally be maintained at 15%-18%. Some vegetables and legumes are also incorporated in the feed. Farmers are free-range and can be grazing-based. During grazing, it is necessary to prevent the chickens from being exposed to the sun and being poured by the rain. After harvesting, feed some concentrate, such as bran, grains, and chopped sweet potatoes. Commodity turkeys are raised for 8-9 months, male turkeys weigh about 9 kg, and female turkeys weighing about 5 kg can be sold.

Third, the egg production and hatching stage of feeding. Female turkeys grow to 7 months of age, and male turkeys reach sexual maturity at nine months of age. Female turkeys enter the first laying cycle from 34 weeks of age. Produce about 10-15 pieces per self-incubation. The mother's brood is extremely strong and has a great impact on egg production. In order to make it more prolific, eggs can be forced to hold, such as standing in prison, in captivity, and grazing grazing, etc. Since the objective condition of the brood is eliminated, the cuddling time of the female turkey can be greatly shortened. It is best to feed full-priced compound feed during the production of eggs. Male turkeys should also be given special care and rearing to increase the fertility rate. From the 69th week of age, the mother turkey enters the second laying cycle one after another. After that, egg production and fertility have dropped significantly and should be eliminated. Each laying cycle is about 20-22 weeks. There are about 15 weeks of moulting period between two laying cycles. During the incubation period, special care must be taken to keep the incubator clean, quiet and wet. During the incubation process, rodent damage and strong vibrations must be strictly prevented. Turkey is naturally mated. The proportion of males to females can be 1:4 or 1:5.
