Chapter 254: Raising Chickens

In the evening, Yan Siqin reluctantly took out the little money he had at home, "Nu, here you go, I saved this little money from selling eggs, and I haven't given it up yet. I've given it all to you. Is this enough?

Already."

Taking a few sheets of unity, Zhao Liangsheng made some calculations in his mind, "It should be enough. It's just repairing the roof and repairing the doors and windows. I think it's about the same."

"If we want to raise chickens, we can't just build a house. We don't want to buy chickens? We don't want to build a chicken coop? We don't want to buy chicken food? There is money everywhere, and I can tell you, we really have no money.

"

Zhao Liangsheng was speechless. Why is it so difficult to do something without money? He frowned and said, "Mother Chen, why don't we build a chicken coop first? Just put it in the house and let them run around. Let's see if the chickens can do it."

Let’s get it back on credit from the hatchery first…”

"You only want good things!" Yan Siqin interrupted before he finished speaking, "It takes at least three to five hundred chickens to run a small family farm. Who will give it to us on credit? If someone else buys our products, you

Are you willing to lend money to others?"

That's right. Zhao Liangsheng smacked his lips, "If it doesn't work, just sell a batch of our big chickens. The roosters and the ones that don't lay eggs frequently will be sold first, and we can make up for them later."

Yan Siqin nodded, "That's all we have to do."

The next day, Zhao Liangsheng went to prepare some materials and then found a bricklayer in the village. In just one day, all the places that needed to be repaired were repaired. He also moved out all the sundries from the house, vacated the house, and paved the inside with

Straw and sand are waiting for the chicks to move in.

Yan Siqin has been relatively free recently. He thinks a lot when he is not busy. When he is free, he thinks of Coco: Even if the child is ten years old, I wonder how my daughter is doing now? How tall is she? This little heartless girl

, this step is like a mud cow entering the sea, there is no faith at all.

Zhao Liangsheng went to the market for a few days and sold one-third of his family's chickens to collect enough money to buy chicks. He went to the breeding farm and bought 500 chicks.

They are all commonly raised in the local area, commonly known as local chickens. They are like small fluffy balls of various colors, with bright yellow mouths that chirp non-stop, small and bright round eyes, and two small black legs that run very fast.

.

Yan Siqin and his wife are even busier. Fortunately, the chickens here in the old house have less to worry about. Every day, the leading chicken takes them to the hill to look for food. They only need to fill the trough with feed, and those who are not full will come and fill it up.

Full stomach.

The farm has a lot to worry about. The main reason is that the chicks that have just been hatched are particularly difficult to take care of. If they are not careful, they can have diarrhea and death. For this reason, Zhao Liangsheng specially bought feed suitable for the chicks and fed them for a few days.

It went well at first, but something went wrong when the chickens reached their old age. At first, there were three or two chickens with their heads hanging down. At first, Yan Siqin didn't care. With so many chickens, it was inevitable that one or two chickens would be squeezed to death. Gradually, every day there were three or two chickens.

Yan Siqin became anxious because of the chickens she had raised for so many years, and they had never died like this before. Could it be chicken plague? But it's not like that. Chicken plague kills all the chickens, and it's not like the chickens died today.

How many will die tomorrow? Could it be that there is something wrong with the chicks? Yan Siqin carried the dead chickens and took Zhao Liangsheng to the hatchery.

Chengda Farm is a small and medium-sized farm that integrates hatching and breeding. The boss is a woman. Because she has the skill of artificially hatching chicks, a lot of people come to her to buy chicks every year. When she looks at the market

The demand was quite large, so we purchased incubation machines and set up this hatchery.

Cheng Fang had just put out a batch of chicks. After sterilizing the incubator, she was sitting on the bench to rest. When she looked up, she saw two people walking from outside. She was quite impressed by the man. He had just entered from her place not long ago.

She bought five hundred chicks. Anyone who could get five hundred chicks from her at one time was considered a big customer to her. She immediately stood up with a smile on her face and said, "Brother Zhao is here, let's buy chicks this time."

Of?"

"Don't mention it." Zhao Liangsheng took the dead chicken from Yan Siqin with a grimace and placed it in front of Cheng Fang, "Boss Cheng, look at these chickens and you don't know what's going on. Several of them will die every day. At this rate,

If you go down there, the chicken will almost die before it grows up."

"Impossible!" Cheng Fang looked at the two of them in confusion, then held the chicken legs and lifted them up to observe, "I can guarantee that the chickens hatched by my family have no problems at all, and every chicken has been infected with Marek's disease after hatching.

The bivalent vaccine is used for seven days and the medicine is dripped into the nose and eyes to prevent the chickens from getting sick."

"What are you putting on your nose?" This is the first time Yan Siqin has heard this word. She has been raising chickens for so many years, but she has never heard that newly hatched chicks need to be put on their nose.

Hearing this tone, he knew that this person was not an expert. Cheng Fang explained patiently, "It's like this, artificially hatched chickens and chickens hatched by hens are different. Chicks with chicken mothers have much stronger disease resistance."

, artificially hatched chickens cannot do this. Seven days after hatching, they need to use Newcastle disease intranasally and eye drops to enhance their disease resistance."

"Oh." Yan Siqin didn't understand even more, "You're already dripping in your nose and eyes, so why are you still dead?"

"Hey, sister, can one drop of this drop in the nose last a lifetime? Chickens, like people, need to be vaccinated regularly." Cheng Fang asked Zhao Liangsheng with a smile, "Are you a chicken that won't be vaccinated after you bring it home?"

Never been beaten?"

"I don't know." Zhao Liangsheng shook his head, "My family raises chickens all year round, and I have never received any vaccinations, and I have never seen anyone sick."

"Brother Zhao, I thought you knew everything. If I had known you were getting chickens, I would have told you that raising chickens is very knowledgeable." Cheng Fang pulled two chairs over and warmly invited the two of them.

She sat down and said, "Come, sit here, I will explain it to you carefully." She poured two more glasses of water and put them into their hands, "Let me tell you, you two are bold enough to give me everything."

I don’t understand why I dare to buy so many chicks at once!”

Yan Siqin blushed at the ridicule, but she was still not convinced, "I have raised chickens for many years, and they have always been fine, so I thought raising chickens was no coincidence. Just don't let them be thirsty and hungry. Who would have thought

This chicken will be so delicate."

Cheng Fang: "The chickens you raise must all be raised by old hens. I have never raised any such machine-hatched chickens."

Yan Siqin nodded, "Well, I let the old hen cuddle up when it's nesting. I haven't bought any chicks before. I've raised more this time. The child's father heard that the chicks here are good, so he came over."

Cheng Fang: "My first guess is, let me tell you, chickens hatched by machines need concentrated vaccinations."

"Wait a minute." Zhao Liangsheng interrupted Cheng Fang, "Boss Cheng, please give me a pen and paper, and I will write it down."

"Yes, look at my brain." Yan Siqin also said hurriedly: "No matter how good the memory is, it is not as good as a bad pen. Give me a pen and paper, and I will study hard."

"First of all, I make the one-day and seven-day-old vaccines here. Generally, you don't need to take them. What you need to do is the vaccine that needs to be used starting from the fourteenth day. This vaccine prevents bursitis.

To use the virulent strain vaccine, simply add it to the water in proportion. Twenty-one-day fowlpox vaccination, using fowlpox I-series vaccine, this is more troublesome. I guess you don’t know how. Just watch, I will give you step-by-step instructions.

Here you go." Cheng Fang said this, picked up the dead chicken on the table, spread the chicken wings, pointed to the position below the wing tip and said: "This is right here, this is called subcutaneous and wing membrane thorn seeding, the syringe injects the potion to

Go inside."

Zhao Liangsheng and Yan Siqin gathered around and followed the direction of Cheng Fang's finger to observe carefully and remember it in their mind. Zhao Liangsheng was afraid that he would not be able to remember it, so he drew a sketch of a chicken wing and marked an arrow at the location where the injection was needed.

.

Seeing that the two of them had almost remembered it, Cheng Fang continued to explain, "To prevent bursitis on the 28th, use the virulent strain of bursitis vaccine. This can also be mixed into drinking water. It will last for 30 days."

To prevent Newcastle disease and spread of the disease, use the IV vaccine plus H52. At this time, it is necessary to combine intranasal and eye drops with drinking water, and the dosage of drinking water vaccine is doubled. To prevent Newcastle disease at 60 days, use the chicken Newcastle I vaccine, or intramuscular

After injection, it is necessary to prevent Newcastle disease, chicken infectious bronchitis, and egg loss syndrome on the 120th day. Use Newcastle disease, bronchitis, and egg loss syndrome oil emulsion inactivated vaccine. The method of use is still intramuscular injection."

Cheng Fang told Zhao Liangsheng and his wife all the vaccines needed for the growth of chickens in one breath, and then said: "After the 120-day-old vaccine, there is usually nothing wrong with it. Just feed it normally. Of course, normal epidemic prevention still needs to be carried out."

You have to do it. Some vaccines have a preventive period, some last for three or four months, and the longest one can last for a year and a half. These are all done. As long as there are no new epidemics, they will have no effect on them. So you understand

Yet?"

Darling, I didn’t expect that raising chickens is such a big knowledge! The couple looked at each other and thought that it had been more than a month since they brought the 300 chickens back home, and they hadn’t even been vaccinated once. Yan Siqin was afraid for a while: the chickens are not dead.

It’s good if it’s clean!

Zhao Liangsheng asked: "Boss Cheng, my chickens are more than a month old. What should I do with the missed vaccines? Can they still be replenished?"

"Don't worry, I can make up for it. I'll find two books for you. The book about raising chickens is very clear about this." Cheng Fang turned around and opened the bookcase door, took out two books from inside, patted the books and said: "This

There are several books that I used when I first learned to raise chickens. The knowledge in them is very practical. I give them to you two. Take them back and study hard."

Yan Siqin hurriedly took it and thanked him profusely, "Thank you, Boss Cheng, thank you, Boss Cheng."

"Thank you for what!" Cheng Fang said with a generous smile: "As long as you raise chickens well, you can thank me by buying more chicken seedlings from my place later."

Zhao Liangsheng asked: "Boss Cheng, where should I buy the vaccine?"

"Go to the livestock station in the countryside. They have all kinds of vaccines there."
