Turkey's feeding management

The feeding process of turkeys can generally be divided into three stages: brooding, breeding and egg production. Of course, if the merchandise turkey is used to raise meat, the growing period also includes the fattening stage.

Brooding stage

The focus of feeding and management is drinking, eating and temperature control. After hatching, young turkeys may move into brooding boxes for 24 hours. After entering the brooding room, drink water after the flock has stabilized. Early drinking can be about 20 °C clean warm water, you can also add glucose and other drinking water. 2 hours to 3 hours after drinking began to tease and start eating. When a newborn turkey is fed a high-protein feed, the crude protein in the diet should reach about 25%. At the same time, vitamins, minerals and green feed should also be supplemented. Feeding 5 to 6 times a day 7 days before brooding, and feeding 4 times after 1 month. The young turkey likes spicy flavor. When mixing, it can be mixed with some green onions, garlic and leeks, so as to increase the appetite of young turkeys, inhibit fungi, and promote the digestion of young turkeys. The temperature standard for newborn chicks is higher than that of normal chickens. The temperature requirement is 36°C~38°C. After that, it drops 3°C every week until it is warmed.

Growing stage

The focus of feeding and management is to ensure the growth and development. Female turkeys reach 8 weeks of age and male turkeys enter the breeding period at 10 weeks of age. During this period, it is necessary to properly control the feed, slow down the speed of growth, and facilitate the future production of eggs. The average dietary crude protein level can be reduced to 15% to 18%. Conditional grazing can be done during the day and appropriate supplements such as bran, grain, chopped sweet potatoes, etc. will be provided sooner or later. If it is used for meat, it will be fattening. Strengthen management, pay attention to the disinfection of the environment and tools. Develop and strictly enforce immunization procedures.

Egg production stage

The focus of feeding and management is to maintain a high rate of egg production and extend egg production time. Female turkeys begin their first egg-laying period from 30 weeks of age. During the laying period, full-price compound feed is to be fed, and protein is maintained at 18% to 20%. In general, after each turkey produces 10 to 15 eggs, the female turkey starts to hug and hatch. In order for the mother turkey to produce more eggs, a common method of awakening the nest may be adopted to urge it to awaken as soon as possible. Most turkeys are naturally mated, and the ratio of male and female turkeys is 1:10. Roosters require healthy, lively, shiny feathers, and thick and straight legs; hens require back flat tails, large chests, large feathers, and meat. Bright colors. In order to avoid inbreeding and breed degradation, breeder roosters should be imported or exchanged from outside.
