Chapter 5 Duck Raising

"Xiao Cen, you're asking the right person." Wu Fang showed a smug smile on his face and said, "Uncle Fang has been raising ducks for more than ten years, and there are many ways here. If you don't understand, it's easy to lose money."

"Please help me. When buying ducks in the future, I hope that Uncle Fang can come to help me check it out." When Cen Jiahua heard this, she knew that she had met an expert, so of course she was very happy.

Although I did a lot of homework after deciding to contract the Lotus Reservoir, read some information online, and bought some related books, I was still very unlucky in practice. After all, there are still many insurmountable aspects between theory and practice. It is completely impossible to think that just reading books can raise ducks.

Although he has the help of various formations, he still needs some real materials, otherwise he would be too opportunistic and love each other. Now he just happened to meet an expert, so Cen Jiahua naturally would not miss the opportunity to ask for advice.

However, just as Cen Jiahua was about to continue asking some questions about raising ducks, the boat landed and arrived at Island No. 1, nearly 1,000 meters away from the pier. The conversation had to come to an end.

The islands 1, 2, and 3 present an inverted triangle shape. Among them, the island 1 is closest to the dam, the smallest and the lowest terrain, which is very suitable for building duck houses.

Now it is basically the highest water level in the reservoir in the year, and the area exposed to the water surface of the entire island is about four or five acres. The duck house left by Boss Huang, the original duck farm, was already in ruins due to the long-term wind and sun exposure.

The men who followed Lao Chen's village chief were all in charge of their own families. When it comes to work, they were much more powerful than those strong young men in their early 20s.

Without Cen Jiahua's greeting, they all took their place, picked up the tools in their hands and started to do it. Today's main task is to remove all the weeds growing on the island, open up a place to build duck houses, and build them when the wood comes tomorrow.

Because Cen Jiahua was not very skilled, she had to follow Uncle Fang, who had a scarred face, and also asked Uncle Fang for his duck raising scripture.

Cen Jiahua, who originally thought raising ducks was a very simple thing, only after chatting with Wu Fang found that there are still many ways to raise ducks, and there is really knowledge everywhere!

Just like choosing duck seedlings, there are many tricks in between!

Because there is basically no duckling in the eyes of laymen, there is no difference, but in the eyes of experienced duck handle style, it is different. Duck handle styles can distinguish the gender of ducklings by their body shape, nostrils, flippers and movements. Because, generally speaking, in the meat duck market, males are not as good as females, and female ducks are more expensive than males and have higher sales.

In addition to choosing male and female, the health of the ducklings is also very important, because it is related to the benefits of future breeding. Those ducklings with large heads, thick necks, tall chests, wide backs, thick and tall feet, soft and delicate webbeds between the toes, neat, clean and shiny feathers, wide eyes, lively and active, loud and crisp, evenly sized, and feel powerful in the hands. The ducklings are the healthiest ducklings.

A duck with a healthy innate diet, strong physical strength, good development, fast growth, and high feeding rewards. If it is a duck with a big belly, a protruding navel or a closed eye and shrinking its head, and is slow to react to the outside world, and has no strength to struggle out in the hand, is a low-quality product.

In addition, there is another key procedure for selecting duck seedlings, which is to prevent some bad vendors from mixing some low-priced bad varieties into duck seedlings to cheat money.

"In the past, some people who were not very knowledgeable bought long-neck ducks specially used for laying eggs, but they did not realize that they had lost all their money until the duck changed their hair and was about to mature." Wu Fang quickly danced the sickle in his hand and said to Cen Jiahua.

"It's really an eye-opener. If Uncle Fang hadn't told me this, I wouldn't have known that there would be so many tricks just to choose duck seedlings." Cen Jiahua said convincedly. It's true that he has a specialty in his profession!

"Haha, these are all the experiences we have summarized over the years. Although I told you, you still have to practice more to become more familiar with them." Wu Fang's first impression of Cen Jiahua, a young man who came from the city, was quite good. He naturally would not hide some of his experiences.

"Since Uncle Fang is an expert, I hope you will give me some advice if there is any problem with my duck farm at that time." Cen Jiahua knew very well that his novice could not become a duck raising expert based on such superficial experience. The most important thing at the moment is that someone needs to give me some advice.

"There is no problem with this. If you want to stock it on the island, it is best to choose a larger medium duck. Although the price is higher, it is better to adapt to environmental and temperature changes, it has a good resistance to disease, and has a high survival rate." Wu Fang stopped the sickle in his hand, lit a cigarette, and then spit out the smoke and said to Cen Jiahua.

"Oh, that's it? Then how many of this No. 1 island is suitable for maintenance?" Seeing Wu Fang stopping, Cen Jiahua also took a rest. He had never done such a job before. Today, he was really a little clumsy.

"It's okay if you raise thousands of islands on No. 1. As long as the duck house is spacious enough, you'd better raise a thousand people first and accumulate experience, and then expand the scale."

When talking about duck raising scriptures, Wu Fang had to be very talkative, and his eyes emitted a dazzling light.

While smoking, Wu Fang continued to teach Cen Jiahua the duck raising scriptures.

"I'm afraid of several kinds of animals raising ducks, eagles, weasels, foxes, rats, snakes and eels. Weasels and foxes can be ruled out on this island, and there are probably very few rats. If eagles are very troublesome, there are basically no precautions. However, weavers are rarely seen near our Banyanshu Village." Wu Fang paused and continued: "The purpose of removing weeds today is to find snake caves and eliminate all the snakes on the island, otherwise, you won't have enough ducks to eat."

Now, Cen Jiahua realized that she was really a little too confident at the beginning. She always thought that with the help of the formation, it would be easy to raise anything. Unexpectedly, today I learned about the knowledge I had never learned from Wu Fang.

It seems that the road ahead is long, and I will search up and down!

At this time, Lao Chen's scream came from the other side of the island.
