Detailed Explanation of Key Points in White-Feathered Broiler Farming Technology
White-feathered broilers are characterized by fast growth, a short rearing cycle, and a large average body weight at market. Below I will share a few insights based on the physiological characteristics of white-feathered broilers. 1. Housing requirements: in Northeast China, insulation of the housing is key. Some farmers pursue only the number of birds raised rather than quality, blindly expanding production, with pitifully crude housing, resulting in high labor intensity, high heating costs, and high rates of chick disease and culling. Therefore, in Northeast China the construction of chicken houses is very important, paying attention to the design of main-body insulation and ventilation openings. This achieves high-quality rearing results. 2. Brooding: whether chicken raising succeeds depends 50% on brooding. During the brooding period, temperature, humidity, indoor air freshness, and chick density must all be reasonable. Temperature varies slightly according to the season, but with one goal: as long as the chicks do not huddle together or breathe with their mouths open, that is fine. Do not stare obsessively at the thermometer, and do not violate their physiological requirements; humidity should be controlled at 60-65%. Suitable humidity can prevent floating dust from entering the respiratory tract, which would cause snorting and coughing after the first immunization vaccine; ventilation for the chicks cannot be ignored. In fact, during the brooding period, the fuel for indoor heating consumes a lot of oxygen, and after oxygen deficiency the chicks will overdrink, causing non-pathological diarrhea or death by suffocation; too high a density affects the uniformity of the chicks and induces proventriculitis, so they should be moved to new groups at the proper time. 3. Selection and use of vaccines: choose vaccines prepared from SPF eggs. Some vaccines are prepared from ordinary eggs. Formulate the immunization program according to the epidemic characteristics of local diseases. 4. Drug prevention and treatment: there are many misunderstandings in the use of drugs. Using florfenicol at the start can easily cause immunosuppression; cephalosporin antibiotics should be used, which are effective against both inflammation and Gram-negative bacteria. Before 20 days of age, try not to use Western antiviral drugs; use more pure Chinese medicines to prevent damage to the immune system. Drugs should be used according to the course of treatment to prevent the development of drug resistance. Do not rely completely on drugs to prevent disease; do a good job in environmental management. Once conditions suitable for growth are created, the probability of disease is much lower. 5. Reasonable nutritional levels: do not pursue whether the feed cost is high or low; it is enough that the nutrition is complete, balanced, and of stable quality. The feed formulas made by each manufacturer differ slightly, and the amounts cannot be compared with one another. Early rearing requires protein, while later stages require energy, so for concentrated feed, add it when needed and reduce it when needed (with reasonable feeding costs, generally after 33 days of age reduce the proportion of concentrated feed; corn is the source of energy)

How to prevent and treat emaciation disease in wild rabbits? Prevention and control measures that farmers must know
Young rabbits within 3 months of age are more prone to a kind of emaciation disease. Its symptoms are reduced appetite in the sick rabbits, dull or discolored hair coat, walking with an arched back, pale ocular conjunctiva, gradual emaciation, and finally death from exhaustion with skin clinging to bones. The sick rabbits that survive show stunted development and lose their breeding value
