How to identify high-quality fish fry? Just look at these few points
First, look at the size of the fry. In the same pond, the same species of fish should be uniform and even when harvested, with little difference in body length and body weight.

The main causes are: first, growing-finishing piglets lack the mineral feed needed for growth; lactating sows and pregnant sows use their own mineral elements for the normal growth of suckling piglets and fetuses, and the minerals in the feed are hard to meet the demand. Second, the feeding is unreasonable: too little feed is given, the pigs do not eat their fill, and no water is provided with the feed.

You can tell what disease a chicken has just by looking at its droppings
Chicken droppings are the end product of digestion in chickens, and many diseases produce characteristic changes in the color and shape of the droppings. Observing changes in chicken droppings is one of the methods for diagnosing disease. If keepers can recognize the abnormal reactions of chicken droppings, they can promptly spot abnormalities in the flock and take measures as early as possible to prevent and treat disease.

Normal chicken droppings are strip-shaped or form a pile when they land, contain a small amount of moisture, have normal white urates at the upper end, and show normal color and shape at the lower end, with scattered dark brown oily cecal droppings mixed in
