How long is the breeding cycle of broilers?

Broiler breeding is an important breed of chicken breeding, which has the characteristics of short market cycle and high efficiency. However, we should pay attention to the correct and reasonable marketing methods and grasp the marketing opportunities. So, how long is the marketing cycle of broiler breeding? How to determine the marketing time of broilers? Let's see. The daily gain of broilers increased before the growth peak and decreased after the growth peak. The growth of chickens at 7 weeks old, cocks at 9 weeks old and mixed broilers at 8 weeks old reached the peak. Therefore, broilers should not be marketed beyond the above time.
The age of broilers on sale is limited by the variety of hens. Therefore, the requirements on the age of broilers are the same. If the age of broilers on sale is the same, before the sale of broilers, when broilers are on sale, the male chickens with small weight will be on sale earlier than the female chickens with large weight. There are differences in daily age requirements. If the age of slaughter day is the same, the feed intake of broilers increases with the increase of daily age, but the feed weight ratio decreases with the increase of daily age. Especially after the growth peak, due to the increase of broilers' weight and the increase of maintenance consumption, the feed weight ratio decreases rapidly.
According to the growth law of broilers and the change law of feed yield, the income and expenditure of broilers are as follows: income is less than expenditure at the beginning of growth, and gradually greater than expenditure with the increase of age; In the late feeding period, the income is less than the expenditure when it increases to a certain extent. The slaughter weight of broilers should not be less than 90 kg, and that of cocks 55 kg; 55kg hens; The control of slaughter weight of broilers is closely related to the nutritional needs of broilers. If the slaughter weight is not up to the standard, the slaughter time should be appropriately shortened.
Broilers aged 5 weeks after birth need feeding management requirements of 4 weeks old and broilers at peak growth period. The daily gain of broilers is generally 10%~15% of that of hens, and that of other day old chickens is 15%~20%. The daily weight gain of broilers is affected by the constitution, diet, age and environment of the flock, among which the diet affects the production performance of broilers. This is the end of this issue. Thank you for reading this article
