How much does it cost to raise one sika deer?

Sika deer are relatively easy to raise and are not picky about food or drink. The feed for sika deer is divided into two types: coarse feed and fine feed. Coarse feed is mainly fresh corn stalks, while fine feed includes soybean cake, corn, wheat bran, etc., as well as additives such as salt and calcium. An adult sika deer generally eats more than ten jin of food a day, and the annual breeding cost for one deer is about 2000 yuan.

How to choose sika deer breeding stock

1. Timing of selection: It is best to buy breeding male sika deer before the velvet antler growing season, when whether the antler is large or small, good or bad, is clear at a glance. If the velvet antler has already been sawed off, then you have to judge by appearance.

2. Body shape and appearance selection: The head should be large, the eyes spirited, and the height suitable; it is not that the taller the better.

3. Feeding ability selection: For deer in the same deer farm eating the same feed, deer that love to eat, have strong digestive function, and look relatively plump are the ideal choice. In addition, the better a deer tolerates coarse feed, the easier it is to raise. Many experienced breeders, when selecting breeding deer, deliberately stage a ruse and use coarse feed to test just how good their feeding ability is.

4. Selection of young deer: It is hard to tell good from bad in young deer. For deer of the same age, choose the larger ones, then select the fawns after returning, culling the poor ones and keeping the good ones.

5. Selection by size: As for whether it is better to buy large ones or small ones, it depends on your financial capacity. If your financial capacity is strong, you can buy some large deer to develop. Buying small deer has a very long turnover period and cannot be developed in a short time.

6. Investigation of the breeding farm: In addition, do not forget that you must carefully investigate the overall level of the deer farm. At the farm, first look at the number of animals on hand. If it is individually run and the number on hand is low, the owner is reluctant to spend money to buy good breeding male deer, which easily leads to inbreeding. Large farms have money and can avoid inbreeding by paying a high price to buy good breeding male deer.
