How to raise peachick chicks?

1. Site selection

The selection of a peafowl site is similar to that of a chicken site among poultry. It is best to choose a place with many trees, but with a large shady area, slightly sloping terrain, and soil containing sand and gravel

2. Breed selection

When selecting chicks, be sure to choose chicks with relatively glossy feathers, bright eyes, relatively strong legs, no sprained toes, and a relatively good appetite.

3. Prepare feed

Under captive conditions, peacocks are mainly fed corn, wheat, bran, sorghum, soybeans, soybean cake, and planted grass, plus fish meal, bone meal, salt, grit, multivitamins, trace elements, amino acids, additives, and so on. In addition, other foods can also be fed according to the feeding situation.

4. Daily management

Because peacocks adapt to different temperatures at different stages, the temperature must be well controlled, and as they grow, the breeding density must also be adjusted. In addition, during the breeding period, work such as disinfection, deworming, and disease prevention must also be done well.

Peacocks combine ornamentation, art, and food value, and have great prospects for development and breeding. Friends who are interested may want to consider it.
