A Detailed Guide to Game Fowl Breeding Techniques and Feeding Management Methods

For male game fowl, select those with a strong physique, a bright red comb that is flat and tumor-shaped, and a body weight of over 7 jin. For female game fowl, select breeds with a well-proportioned build, lively and active temperament, a body weight of over 5 jin, and large, spirited eyes. The chicken coop temperature should be around 25°C, warm boiled water should be used for drinking, and humidity must also be controlled. Pay attention to proper ventilation to exchange the air; clean the droppings every day, and do a good job of disease prevention and control; insist on 2 hours of fighting training and 1 hour of running training every day.

Game Fowl Breeding Techniques

1. Selecting superior breeds: Male game fowl should be selected for a strong body, a powerful physique, a bright red comb that is flat and tumor-shaped, and a body weight of over 7 jin. Female game fowl should be selected for a well-proportioned build, a lively and active temperament, a body weight of over 5 jin, and large, spirited eyes. Selecting in this way helps breed an even more superior next generation of the breed.

2. Feeding management: The chicken coop temperature should be around 25°C, and warm boiled water should be used for drinking to avoid illness in game fowl caused by bacteria in cold water. Humidity must also be controlled well; the humidity is best at 20°C. If humidity is too high, chicks are prone to fungal infectious diseases, and if too low, they are prone to respiratory diseases. Provide water and food at fixed times every day, and always keep sufficient clean drinking water available. On the premise of ensuring temperature and humidity, pay attention to proper ventilation to prevent oxygen deficiency and poisoning by harmful gases, which helps the chickens' metabolism. Feed consumption of game fowl is relatively stable. If feed consumption drops, or if they only drink water and do not eat feed, it may indicate that the chickens have been infected with certain diseases; the cause should be identified as early as possible and treatment given early.

3. Doing good epidemic prevention: Clean droppings every day, keep things clean and dry, and regularly disinfect the chicken coop, the surrounding environment, and feeding and drinking utensils. Only by keeping game fowl in a healthy physical condition can training and breeding be helped, so disease prevention and control must be done well. The coop must be kept clean and disinfected once a week; the disinfectant can be sprayed onto the game fowl themselves, and the feeding trough and water trough must be scrubbed once every day.

4. Regular training: Insist on 2 hours of fighting training and 1 hour of running training every day; only in this way can game fowl with agile movements and tenacious fighting ability be trained. The surrounding environment of the training area should be quiet, and adverse interference should be minimized as much as possible so as not to affect training. Also pay attention to observation to avoid egg pecking, feather pecking, and fighting.
