How to Perform Manual Assistance During a Dog's Whelping
1. Key Points of Assisted Whelping Not all bitches can give birth smoothly without their owner's help. This is especially true of bitches of pure bloodline that have been overprotected, whose entire diet and daily life are specially cared for by their owners, making them highly dependent, even when giving birth. Especially for normally pampered bitches, during labor pains and after delivery they will not bite open the fetal membranes, causing the puppies to suffocate and die. So for the delicate Pomeranian, the owner must take extra care during whelping to help it give birth smoothly.

What are the patterns of silkworms spinning silk and forming cocoons? A full explanation of the process
The life of a silkworm goes through 4 stages: egg, larva, pupa and adult. The larval stage of the silkworm is what people call the silkworm baby stage. What is usually called sericulture refers to the rearing of the larvae. From hatching to cocoon spinning, the larva must go through 4 molts. People therefore divide the course of the larva into 5 instars. During the period before molting, the silkworm does not eat or move, which is called sleeping. From the first to the fourth instar, the silkworm must sleep 4 times; in the later stage of the fifth instar, it no longer sleeps, but spins silk and forms a cocoon, and pupates inside the cocoon, thereby completing the larval stage of the silkworm. Newly hatched silkworms are called ant silkworms, and newly molted

What to do about pig anorexia? Proper feed formulation is key
When the temperature rises above 35°C, pigs have low feed utilization and slow weight gain. Therefore, in hot seasons, different feeding methods should be given according to the different categories of pigs and their different physiological stages. Boars: feed twice a day, with an additional feeding of green feed or thin feed at noon. Mating and exercise are both carried out in the morning and evening; after mating, do not immediately let them go into water to wallow or spray them with cold water. From 1 pm to 3 pm every day, spray water once on the pigs' bodies and the ground, reduce light to 8-10 hours, and if the number of matings is low, reduce the amount of concentrate feed to prevent

Four Reform Measures for Bag-Cultivated Lingzhi (Ganoderma) Cultivation Technology
1. Change the substrate from sawdust to wood blocks. Lingzhi (Ganoderma) is tough in texture and needs to absorb large amounts of lignin and cellulose during its growth. When sawdust or cottonseed hulls are used as the substrate, because the texture is loose, the lignin in the substrate is easily decomposed by the mycelium, and often after harvesting one to two flushes the mushroom log disperses and falls apart. If wood blocks mixed with coarse sawdust are used as the substrate, the same volume contains more lignin, and there are many gaps between the wood blocks, giving good aeration, which is favorable for lingzhi growth, so yields are high and quality is excellent. 2. Change indoor cultivation to outdoor soil-covering cultivation. In indoor bag cultivation of lingzhi, the surface of the mushroom log easily forms a layer of
