Raising Techniques and Precautions for Confined Egg Ducks
Confined Egg Duck Techniques: 1. Management of ducklings (1-30 days of age). Before brooding, prepare the brooding room and transport boxes and disinfect them, and have ready duckling complete compound feed, drinkers, feed troughs, wet-and-dry bulb thermometers, etc. 1. Brooding temperature In the first few days, ducklings have a very poor ability to regulate their body temperature; the temperature standard for the first three days is 33-35°C, then gradually lowered. In practice, you can judge whether the temperature is suitable from the ducklings' activity. If the flock is evenly distributed, lively and active, with a strong appetite and normal droppings, it shows the temperature is normal; if the ducklings crowd as close to the heat source as possible, it shows the temperature is low and you must raise it immediately; if they stay away from the heat source, gasp with open bills and drink large amounts of water, it shows the temperature is too high.

Cage-Rearing Methods for Laying Ducks and Analysis of Their Advantages
1 Duck cage construction The duck cage uses wooden poles with a diameter of more than 4cm as the frame, is built with bamboo strips or wire mesh, and is usually made into a ladder-frame type double-layer overlapping duck cage. The cage is 60cm high, 165cm long, and 70cm wide. The bottom surface of the cage is 45-50cm above the ground, with a slope of 4.2, and the bottom board extends outward along the slope by 20cm, with the partition board and bamboo poles wrapped in rice straw.
