What are the methods for weight gain before meat ducks go to market?

Weight gain before ducks go to market is very important. How can ducks be made to fatten up quickly before going to market? Within a reasonable range, we can use the following methods, which are both safe and effective.

1. Small, frequent meals

Ducks in normal farming are generally fed three meals a day, and each time the ducks are allowed to eat until they stop, after which the ducks have to digest on their own. If they are raised this way before going to market, the fattening effect will not be very obvious, and the small, frequent meals approach needs to be used. The number of feedings per day should be around 5, with a smaller amount fed each time, so that the ducks always have an appetite for food and the things they eat can be digested quickly, thereby fattening them better. Doing this for a long time is not good for the ducks, and it is only suitable for use during fattening.

2. Increase nutrition

For fattening before going to market, the feed is definitely better than before, especially in terms of nutrition, so the cost will also increase a lot, and this is also only suitable for use during fattening before going to market. Soy milk, pig blood, rotten mud and so on are all quite suitable for use at this stage, and some people even use Chinese medicine for it, just for fattening during this period. During this period, special attention must be paid to the balance of nutrition, so that the ducks will grow healthily.

3. Reduce exercise

Many farmers, for the health of the ducks, give them enough activity time and space during the raising process, but before going to market this cannot be done, as it will consume most of the energy from their food and affect the fattening effect. Before going to market, the ducks' activity space should be appropriately compressed, so that they are in a quieter state more often and sit down to absorb the food in their bodies. In particular, the time in water must be reduced even more; once ducks enter water, they become extremely active, so this time must definitely be reduced.

4. Keep quiet

Ducks are actually quite sensitive to sound. If the surroundings of the duck house are noisy, the ducks will become restless, and this will affect the effect of their eating. During the fattening period before going to market, it is necessary to ensure that the surrounding noise is relatively low. Second, farmers should also reduce the number of inspections when there is nothing to do, and at night especially, ensure the sound is quieter. Combined with the fattening methods above, the effect is really quite good.

These methods are not suitable for long-term use, but the temporary effect is indeed very good, so if you want to fatten ducks quickly before they go to market, you should use these methods; they are safe and the effect is also decent.
