Breeding method of eco-friendly beard chicken commercial line

Abstract

The invention discloses a breeding method of an eco-friendly beard chicken commercial line, and belongs to the technical field of poultry genetic breeding and propagation. The breeding method comprises the following steps: (1) taking Huiyang beard chickens as materials, and carrying out generation breeding to obtain beard chickens with high feed reward as terminal male parents; (2) taking short yellow chickens as materials, carrying out generation breeding, and obtaining fast-feathering type short-foot yellow cocks to serve as first male parents; taking Wenchang chickens as materials, carrying out generation breeding, and obtaining slow-feathering Wenchang hens to serve as first female parents; hybridizing the first male parents and the first female parents, and breeding fast-feathering hens which are round in body shape, developed in pectoral muscle and high in laying rate as terminal female parents; and (3) hybridizing the terminal male parents and the terminal female parents to produce the eco-friendly beard chicken commercial line. The beard chicken commercial line bred by the method is good in chicken quality, excellent in slaughter character and high in feed reward, the production cost can be effectively saved, and pollution of waste emission to the environment is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of poultry genetics, breeding and reproduction, and more specifically relates to a method for cultivating an eco-friendly bearded chicken matching line. Background technique [0002] Huiyang bearded chicken is native to 9 cities and counties along the Dongjiang River and the middle and lower reaches of the Xijiang River in Guangdong Province, of which Huiyang, Boluo, Zijin, Longmen and Huidong are the main production areas, Heyuan, Dongguan, Baoan , Zengcheng followed by (China Poultry Genetic Resources, 2003), and because of its appearance "three yellows" (feather yellow, claw yellow, beak yellow), also known as three yellow bearded chicken. Huiyang bearded chicken has open beard feathers under the jaw, which looks like a beard. It is a high-quality chicken breed with tender and thin bones, crispy skin and delicious taste, and excellent meat quality. [0003] However, the original species of Huiyang bearde...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, the original species of Huiyang bearded chicken has defects such as slow growth rate, poor reproductive performance, and low feed conversion rate.

At present, the bearded chickens circulating in the poultry market have been improved in different ways, but there are problems such as high feed-to-meat ratio, high production costs, and shortening the feeding age will seriously affect the meat quality.

In addition, the current broiler feed is mainly based on corn and soybean meal, and the structural shortage of feed resources has become a key issue for the high production cost of livestock and poultry products
