What do free-range chickens eat and lay more eggs? What is the basis?
The growth and development of native chickens are slow, and it takes 4-5 months from chicks to adults to lay eggs, which is to lay eggs next spring. Due to the harm of temperature, native chickens in the northern region do not lay eggs in winter. It is best to spread a layer of sand in the henhouse and keep it dry, which is beneficial to the chicken to take a soil bath. Native chickens can feed freely. Generally, there is no shortage of nutrition, but it is dry in spring. Although the temperature is ok in early spring, there is no jade component. Only eat grassroots entrepreneurs and eat small grains of sand to promote digestion. Drink warm bean cakes (cakes made after soybean oil is pressed) and local chickens twice a day.

Bean cake water is rich in nutrition, which not only quenches thirst, but also supplements protein and promotes egg laying. At the same time, mix the leaves left by everyone's cooking with some corn residue or bran to feed them to make up for the lack of food and eggs. The henhouse should be built in a naturally ventilated and dry place and kept clean and hygienic. Chickens also need proper temperature and plenty of sunshine during the laying period. There is much precipitation in spring, high environmental humidity and short sunshine time. Adjust the temperature of the henhouse and fill it with sunshine as much as possible, so that free-range chickens are not easy to get sick, and their living conditions are good, and the egg production will certainly increase.

In order to save costs, many farms will add a lot of corn flour to chicken feed, which leads to serious nutritional deficiency of chickens. The actual proportion is expressed by concentrated feed, and the preparation of concentrated feed is different. It's best to buy concentrate, which is a little more expensive, but the egg production of native chickens has increased. Lack of phosphorus and calcium in native chickens will definitely harm egg production. Before laying eggs, feed mills should add additives such as fish meal or shell powder, so that the eggs laid by native chickens will not be soft-shelled. Then it is to increase the exercise of native chickens and strengthen their own physique.

You can choose a more colorful concentrated feed basin and put the feed basin at a certain relative height, so that the native chicken will definitely jump up during the whole feeding process. The problem of sunshine should be paid attention to in the whole feeding process of native chicken. We know that in the natural environment where native chickens grow and develop, sufficient sunshine is beneficial to improve egg production. Therefore, the soft light can be carried out reasonably in the feeding process, and the light supplement work should have a certain length of time, which will not cause harm to the living habits of native chickens. Soft light can be implemented twice in the morning and evening, and the irradiation time of native chicken can be adjusted to more than 16 hours.
