In this place I manage the business of duck livestock, breeding duck has several advantages of meat and eggs, we know duck breeding is very fast and easy and byproducts can we get from eggs in if it becomes salted eggs, duck livestock is very easy, no need requires a large enough land because the ducks in general can be maintained outside the room or more in the cage and the cost of production is relatively cheap, we can use feed from feed pieces of kitchen or a by-product of agricultural products ..
In order to maximize the potential of duck livestock products, then in the location of livestock maintenance is recommended that:
- far enough from the noise
- not too close to the settlement
- cool temperatures
- close to the water source
- close to the source of feed
Let us review step by step how to breed ducks
Early stage cages
Height of the cage at least ideally2 meters, while the width of the cage maximum of 8 meters, the enclosure wall can be stacked over wire or bamboo
In addition to using wire and bamboo, for maintenance outside the room we can use the net as a duck cage
The second stage of ducklings
Breeding of duck livestock until now still rely on passive order and simple hatching technology by utilizing from heat of lamp.To begin the stage of breeder breeders can obtain seedlings or seedlings from hatchery or from the cultivation of ducks laying or can also by hatching their own eggs from the existing parent.
The third stage of feed
The ideal feed given to the duck is bran or corn, because with the provision of corn and bran food then the growth of ducks will be faster and ducks will be easier to lay eggs, which is certain with the provision of rice bran can save costs in terms of economy
Feeding only by placing food placed in a medium or a wide bowl to make it easier for ducks to eat
When the duck is 2 months old then the maintenance can be done in the wild, and to further facilitate the duck to develop it should be the release of ducks in doing in watery areas or the location of rice fields or pond
The final stage of harvesting
If the duck weighs approximately 1kilo 5 ounces then the duck can be harvested, the duck harvest is easier because we only need to weigh and choose the weight of the duck that has enough weight
In addition to meat, harvest can also be eggs that are certainly in the market for duck eggs more demand because of the reach of the price of duck egg is relatively affordable, in addition to duck eggs more protein in comparison with other poultry eggs
So many explanations about how cattle ducks, may be useful for us all
