Several items to be noticed in guinea fowl breeding

1. Temperature:
The temperature of chicks within 2 days of age needs to be kept at about 33°C. The age of 2-7 days is kept at about 30°C. With the increase of age, the temperature can be gradually reduced. The temperature is reduced by about 3°C ​​per week. After about 20-25 days, it can adapt to the temperature of the natural environment. Open activities, do not fight, do not stay as the optimum temperature.
2. Density: 50-60/M2, 1 week old, 30-40/M2, 2 weeks old, and 20-30/M2, 3 weeks old.
3. Humidity: The relative humidity within one week of age should be controlled at 60% to 65%, followed by 55% to 60%.
4. Diet: Water should be “opened” and “eaten” within 24 hours after hatching. Give water first. Add 5% glucose or multidimensional to drinking water. After 2 to 3 hours, the soft body rice or dry corn powder soaked in the air is soaked. 2 to 3 days after the start of feeding formula feed. Feed 6 to 7 times daily at 10 days and feed 5 to 6 times daily at 10 to 30 days. Add 0.02% oxytetracycline powder or 0.1% potassium permanganate in drinking water to prevent the disease. Reduce the amount of feed added to prevent wasted feed due to paralysis or rejection.
5. Light:
Natural daylight can be used during the day. When the light hours are insufficient, artificial light can be added according to the above table. The light intensity of the chicks was 3 watts/meter 2 at 0 to 10 days and 2 watts/meter 2 at 11 to 21 days.
6. Prevention and control of large groups of guinea fowl susceptible chicken Newcastle disease, chicken, chicken pox, coccidia, etc., for this purpose, should pay attention to the column clean and disinfection and other work on the basis of regular vaccination. At the age of 3 to 10 days, 0.01% of furazolid was added to the feed. At 15 days of age, the Newcastle disease II vaccine was used to intranasally instill nasal or eye drops. At the same time, 10 times dilution of the chickenpox vaccine was subcutaneously bred in the chicken wings. Between 20 and 60 days of age, 50 mg of azulene can be added to each kilogram of diet. At 2 months of age, chicken Newcastle disease vaccine I was injected subcutaneously.
Generally, guinea fowls are reared extensively and have strong resistance to diseases. However, in winter, the cold and cold climate is a greater stress for guinea fowls. Under such stress, the resistance of guinea fowls is reduced if closed. The high-density feeding of small guinea fowls has many diseases: candidiasis, aspergillosis, colibacillosis, salmonellosis, staphylococcal disease, Newcastle disease, infectious enteritis, adeno-gastric disease, adenovirus disease, coccidiosis Diseases, nematode diseases, carbon monoxide, ammonia, and other toxic gas poisoning diseases. It is necessary to do a good job in immunization against Newcastle disease, infectious enteritis and adenovirus disease, regularly launch antibiotics, strictly implement a health and epidemic prevention system, and reduce the occurrence of epidemics.
