A Detailed Guide to Teal Farming Methods and Technical Key Points
The teal, also known as the freshwater clam duck, has the scientific name mallard, and was called the wild duck, morning duck, etc. in ancient times. It generally lives in rivers, lakes, or among reeds, so how do you raise teal? Let's take a look together!
1. How to raise teal
Select ducklings with loud calls as breeding ducks; in the early stage, feed them mung beans mixed with gypsum and rice, and give them plenty of brown sugar water or glucose water to drink. Add shade shelters according to their growth, and strengthen ventilation in the overall environment. After they grow, the feed ratio can be adjusted; pay attention to keeping warm in winter, and carry out scientific grazing in daily management.
2. How to scientifically graze teal
1. Scientific grazing to save feed is the central part of raising autumn teal. For scientific grazing, one should follow the “three do's and five don'ts.”
2. The “three do's” are: a few days before grazing, train the duck flock to “go onto the pole”; when driving the ducks out to graze, it is advisable to feed them some feed first so that they do not swallow too much mud and sand because of hunger and greediness; choose places with shallow, clear water and plenty of grass for grazing, and the grazing time should increase with the ducks' age, from near to far; at noon they should rest more in the shade and swim and drink water at any time, so as to go out grazing early and bring them back late.
3. The “five don'ts” are: “do not go down into fields while grazing, and do not walk on scalding roads; do not graze where there is pesticide pollution and do not make the ducks flap their wings and rush along, so as to avoid frightening and injuring the flock; do not graze against the current; let them out when the water recedes and drive them back when the water rises; do not graze under the scorching sun.
