The leisurely life of farmers in mountain villages

Chapter 39 Vaccination

The family of Wang Shaodong in Taohualing Village has become the topic of conversation in the whole village this year. First, there are rumors in the village that the son of the Wang family won the city’s top score in the college entrance examination. .

Then a few hours later, everyone heard that the champion had been replaced by an impostor.This incident made the Wang family the object of sympathy for the whole village.Seeing that Wang's family couldn't lift their heads and their expressions were in a trance, the young and old in the village shook their heads in distress.

Then another day later, the sad expression on the faces of the Wang family disappeared, and they didn't go to school to investigate the replacement of the college entrance examination results.

It's true that the last batch of chicken Wang's family made money, but now the whole mountain circle is experiencing unprecedented outbreaks of chicken plague. The Wang family's heart is really big enough to serve chickens at this time.

After the chicks were transported to Wang Shaodong's chicken farm, apart from buying two vaccines at the county's veterinary drug wholesale point, the rest of the time, Wang Shaodong's family did not leave the village and stayed in their own chicken farm.

Wang Shaodong persuaded his father to buy 30 tons of chicken feed at once, and stockpiled soybean meal, premix, corn, etc. in proportion.

The price of these 30 tons of chicken feed is around 5 yuan.These feeds are completely enough to grow these two thousand little chickens into big roosters weighing seven or eight catties.

Wang Shaodong knew that by the end of the year, the big roosters in the market would cost more than ten yuan a catty.

Wholesale to Qishan Fried Chicken Restaurant costs at least 13 yuan a catty.

Wang Shaodong is very confident about the batch of chickens being served now.

Not to mention too much, by the end of the year, this batch of chickens will have no problem earning 10 yuan.

On the fifth day when Wang Shaodong's chickens were raised, Ma Zhentang heard that Wang Fumin's chickens needed to be vaccinated, so he offered to help.

"Brother Wang, what kind of variety are you ordering?"

Chicken farmers can be roughly divided into three categories: those who raise laying hens, those who raise broiler chickens, and those who raise firewood roosters.

The three chicken farmers in Taohualing Village all raise chai roosters, and chai roosters are also divided into many varieties, including Ma chicken, Sanhuang, Hongyu, grass chicken, etc., all of which belong to the category of chai rooster.

The feeding cycle of Chai cock is longer than that of broiler chickens and shorter than that of laying hens.However, because there is a relatively large Chai Rooster market in Luzhong City, there are live chicken sales stalls in Daji in seven or eight townships within Gangcheng County, and the sales volume is also considerable.Take Daji in Dazhai Township as an example. Every time there are five or six stalls selling chai roosters and live chickens, more than 200 live chickens are on the market. When the market is good, more than 100 chickens can be sold in one episode.

Like in the previous life, Wang Fumin gained experience later on, raising firewood roosters should not be carted away, but should be sold in the market.Chengzipo Collection on the first day of junior high school, Dazhai Township collection on the second junior high school, Zhangbaqiu collection on the third junior high school, Miaozi Collection on the fourth junior high school, Huangzhuang Village collection on the fifth junior high school, and then reincarnation back to Chengzipo Collection on the sixth day of junior high school... Five days a reincarnation, commonly known locally It's called five episodes.One episode sells 30 chickens retail and 100 chickens wholesale.The retail price on the market is much higher than that of the cart.Taking the present as an example, the five-month-old Chai rooster and live chickens sold in the market in Dazhai Township have already reached more than [-] yuan and [-] cents, while the wholesale price of the cart is only more than [-] yuan, and there is a difference of more than [-] yuan in the middle.Then the wholesale price that the Wang family sells to peddlers is about one yuan lower than the retail price in the market. Now, the wholesale price is around sixty-five yuan.

Calculated in this way, it only takes about half a month to sell 2000 chickens, and the chicken feed loss is about 2000 yuan.However, the sales income is more than 10000 yuan more than that of the big car.Even in many cases, raising firewood roosters will lose money if the goods are sold in a big truck, but if you choose to sell part of it in the market, and then wholesale it to peddlers, you will make money.

Wang Shaodong knew this very well. If it wasn't for the bird flu, Wang Shaodong would have encouraged his father to go to the market to sell the chickens when the first batch of chickens were in the market.

Wang Fumin didn't tell Ma Zhentang about vaccinating the chickens tonight, nor did he invite him to come over to help, but Ma Zhentang volunteered to come here after hearing Zhao Shiling's words.

It is now 09:30 at night, and all the households on the farm have finished their busy work, and have also taken a shower from Beihe. They are cool enough, and they are ready to go to bed.

"Look at your Uncle Ma, you're still here so late?"

The lights were turned off in the shed, and Wang Fumin took a flashlight to shine on the person who was talking at the door of the shed just now.

Vaccination must be done at night, and the lights must be turned off, otherwise there will be chaos in the chicken coop, and you will not know which chickens have been vaccinated and which ones have not.

When Ma Zhentang arrived at Wang's Chicken Coop, Wang Fumin and the others were already busy vaccinating.

Today, Wang's chickens will be inoculated with the 4-series Newcastle disease vaccine by intranasal drops.

There are many ways to use chicken vaccines, including eye drops, nasal drops, mouth drops, intramuscular injections, sprays, and large groups of drinking water.For example, tonight, Wang Fumin's family will give their two thousand chickens a vaccine against Newcastle disease. It is feasible to choose nasal drip or drink water in large groups when they are five days old.

However, the effect of nasal drops is far better than that of drinking water in large groups.Moreover, the chicks are still small, so the nasal drip operation is not too troublesome.

During the last batch of chickens, the four poultry farmers in Taohualing Village were almost embarrassed by the vaccination alone. Later, they invited Liu Dazhuang, who had farming experience from Dazhai Village, to teach them by hand. They give nasal drops, intramuscular injections, and eye drops.

"Just started?"

Ma Zhentang walked in and saw that the chicks after nasal drip were isolated to one side of the chicken coop, while on the other side, there were a large group of chicks driven to a corner.

"At first, two thousand rubies."

In fact, both Ma Zhentang and Wang Fumin are still laymen in raising chickens, and they are far behind Wang Shaodong in terms of experience.

Ma Zhentang saw that Zhao Shiling was in charge of catching chickens, while Wang Fumin and Wang Shaodong were in charge of nasal drip for epidemic prevention.To Ma Zhentang's surprise, Wang Shaodong's dripping nose was much faster than his father Wang Fumin's.

"Red jade? I heard that this chicken costs a lot of food." Ma Zhentang bent down, picked up an empty cardboard box in the chicken coop, went to catch the chicken, and gave Wang Fumin and his son nasal drops for epidemic prevention.

"Well, I feel it, this chicken is more edible than Sanhuang."

Wang Shaodong didn't speak, and was busy giving the chicken nasal drip seriously.

The brand new chicken coop is covered with clean wheat straw on the floor. Although the chicks have been here for five days, the environment in the whole chicken coop is still quite clean.

"Okay, Brother Wang, let's see if this chicken is easy to raise, and see if I want to buy a batch of this kind of chicken."

When Wang Shaodong heard that Ma Zhentang was going to serve chicken, he immediately frowned.

At this time, the chickens will be served ten or so days later than the chickens at home, so you will just miss the best market of the Chinese New Year, and you may lose money if you fail.Hearing that Ma Zhentang's family was going to serve chickens now, Wang Shaodong became a little worried.
