Technical Measures to Improve the Survival Rate of Goslings

First, the goslings of goslings. Feeds for young goslings require clean, fine processing. Commonly used broken rice, soaked in fresh water for 2 hours. Drain the water before feeding. Green fodder requires fresh, tender and juicy leaves, preferably leaves. When feeding in large groups, you can sprinkle the broken rice on the mat or plastic sheet and let the goslings feed and then feed the green stuff. This will prevent goslings from exclusively eating green stuff and eating less broken rice to meet their nutritional needs. The goslings hatched at the beginning of the egg production are suitable to be eaten 36 hours after hatching; goslings hatched by laying eggs can be eaten 24 hours after hatching; large, robust goslings can also be appropriate. Early eating; small size, weaker, should be appropriately delayed opening time.
Second, gosling feeding methods. Keeping goslings should follow the principle of “less adding ground, regular rations”. From the second day after the goslings start eating, they can be formally fed and fed with one concentrate and two chopped green feeds. To use "first drink after feeding" to prevent goslings overeating. Drinking water requires warm water. Feed 8 to 12 times a day. When feeding, pay attention to the observation of the feeding conditions of the geese, and feed them in groups according to their ability to feed. The feeding time should be half an hour. Usually feed 7 to 80% full. A 3-day-old gosling can be fed with a small amount of grits in the diet. After 4 days of age, they are fed 8 to 10 times a day and every 6 to 3 hours after 6 days. Concentrates in the diet should account for 20% to 30%, and chopped vegetables should account for 70% to 80%. 10 to 20 days of age, green feed should account for 80% to 90%, concentrates accounted for 10% to 20%. Every day and night feeding 5 to 6 times. From 21 to 28 days of age, with the extension of grazing time, goslings can feed a large amount of grass, feeding times can be reduced to 4 to 5 times, green feed accounts for more than 90%, and concentrates are controlled at 10%.
Third, grazing. Goslings can start grazing after 11 days of age. Grazing land should be from near to far; grazing time from short to long. To achieve "late and late harvest" to prevent gosling diarrhea, colds, rheumatoid arthritis and other diseases.
Fourth, temperature. The temperature at 1 to 5 days of age is controlled at 28 to 27°C; at 6 to 10 days at 26 to 25°C; at 11 to 15 days at 24 to 22°C; and at 16 to 20 days above at 22 to 18°C. Whether the brooding temperature is appropriate or not can be judged according to the dynamics and calls of the goslings. When the temperature is appropriate, young goslings lively, appetite is strong, drinking water is moderate, and evenly spread around the brooding stalls. When the temperature is too low, the goslings crowd together or intensively at the heat source and continue to make long, sharp calls. If the temperature is too high, goslings away from the heat source, mouth breathing, loss of appetite, frequently drinking water, giving high and short call.
Fifth, group management. Timely and reasonable grouping can make the gosling grow evenly and increase its survival rate. The reasonable breeding density of goslings is preferably 8 to 10 eggs per square meter, and 40 to 50 eggs per group. The density of online breeding can be appropriately increased, and preferably 100 to 150 eggs per group.
Sixth, do a good job of health and epidemic prevention. The brooding room should establish a strict health and disease prevention system. The brooding room import and export office shall establish a disinfection pool and a disinfection room (with ultraviolet lamps inside); outsiders are not allowed to enter. Attention should be paid to the frequent cleaning of the ground and frequent replacement of litter. Manure can be treated by bulk fermentation, and dead geese should be buried or burned.
