Problems solved by technology

In the chick stage, it is impossible to directly distinguish the sex of the chick by the naked eye. The existing technology is to distinguish the sex of the chick through the method of necropsy. Obviously, the accuracy rate of discriminating the sex of the necropsy method is 100%, but the chick must be sacrificed. At the cost of the lives of the chicks, if a way to identify male and female chicks without sacrificing the lives of the chicks is found, it is very worth promoting
[0004] In the existing technology, scientific methods can be used to identify male and female chicks without sacrificing their lives, but the identification accuracy has remained at 90-91%. This level has been maintained for several years and is difficult to break through

Embodiment 1

[0029] 1) Establishment of progenitor breeder flocks

[0030] 300 breeding eggs were purchased from the Big Bone Chicken Breeding Farm (Liaoyang) in Liaoning Province. After hatching, 255 chicks were hatched. 255 chicks were carefully observed within 24 hours to observe the phenotype of the wing feathers and separate the slow-feather chickens. and Quick Feather Chicken. Through observation, there are 25 fast-feather chickens and 230 slow-feather chickens. The fast and slow chickens are marked, and when they grow to 28 weeks, the fast and slow feather chickens that meet the breed requirements are selected as breeding. 93 slow-feather hens and 9 slow-feather roosters were selected. There are 12 fast-feather hens and 3 fast-feather roosters.

[0031] 2) Establishment of female breeder flocks

[0032] Testcross 9 slow-feather roosters every other year to verify whether their genes are homozygous.

[0033] Test cross: 9 slow-feather roosters that have been numbered, and each c...

Embodiment 2

[0047] The difference from Example 1 is that in step 3), the fast-feather cocks in the male breeder flock are fed with feed containing dark-colored dried fruit, ensuring that the feeding amount of each fast-feather cock is 120 grams, and continues to feed for 8 weeks; The dark dried fruit is a mixture of dried red pomelo, dried red dragon fruit, dried strawberry, and dried watermelon in a mass ratio of 1:1:1:1; the quality of the dark dried fruit accounts for 15% of the total amount of feed.

[0048] For the first hybridization, 30 fast-feather cocks and 350 slow-feather hens were used for crossbreeding. 500 breeding eggs were collected and hatched, and 395 hatched. They were identified by feather type within 24 hours of hatching. The fast-feathered chickens were 200. There were 195 slow-feather chickens, and one chick had darker wings in the fast-feather chickens. It was verified by autopsy that 199 of the fast-feather hens were roosters, and 196 of the slow-feather cocks were...

Embodiment 3

[0052] The difference from Example 1 is that in step 3), the fast-feather cocks in the male breeder flock are fed with the feed that contains dark-colored dried fruit, ensuring that the feeding amount of each fast-feather cock is 110 grams, and continues to feed for 6 weeks; The dark-colored dried fruit is a mixture of dried red pomelo and red-heart pitaya according to the mass ratio of 1:1; the quality of the dark-colored dried fruit accounts for 25% of the total amount of feed.

[0053] For the first crossbreeding, 30 fast-feather cocks and 350 slow-feather hens were used for crossbreeding. 500 breeding eggs were collected and hatched, and 395 hatched. They were identified by feather type within 24 hours of hatching. There were 202 fast-feathered chickens. There were 193 slow-feather chickens, and 3 chicks had darker wings in the fast-feather chickens. It was verified by autopsy that 199 of the fast-feather hens were roosters, and 196 of the slow-feather cocks were hens. It ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a breeding method for a poultry breed, specifically to a method for improving the accuracy rate of fast and slow feathering automatic female-male identification for Dagu chicken. The method comprises the following steps: (1) establishing an ancestral breeder flock, and separating fast-feathering chicken from slow-feathering chicken; (2) carrying out test-crossing so as todetermine homozygous slow-feathering male chicken, and subjecting the homozygous slow-feathering male chicken and slow-feathering female chicken to pure breeding so as to establish a maternal breederflock; (3) subjecting fast-feathering female chicken and fast-feathering male chicken to pure breeding, and carrying out breeding for four generations so as to establish a stable paternal breeder flock; and (4) subjecting paternal fast-feathering male chicken and maternal slow-feathering female chicken to cross-breeding so as to obtain offsprings which are commercial chicks capable of realizing female-male identification through fast and slow feathering, wherein fast-feathering chicks are female chicks, and slow-feathering chicks are male chicks. With the method improved by adopting the theoryof genetics, the accuracy rate of fast and slow feathering identification for the commercial chicks is increased to 98% or above; when chicks are newly born, male chicks and female chicks can be identified according to feather types; and the chicks with a needed sex can be selected for feeding according to different production directions, so the cost of feeding is saved, and economic benefits ofa farm are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for cultivating poultry varieties, in particular to a method for improving the accuracy of sex identification of fast and slow feathers of large-bone chickens. Background technique [0002] In recent years, the stock of free-range chickens has continued to increase, and the demand for large-bone chickens has increased, which has produced good economic benefits for increasing farmers' income and improving people's consumption levels. With the improvement of living standards, people's awareness of health care is gradually increasing, and the quality requirements for animal food are also getting higher and higher. Zhuanghe big-bone chicken is extremely high-quality, fresh and tender meat, rich in amino acids, minerals, and vitamins. Among them, the protein content is 16% higher than that of broiler chicken, the iron content is 64% higher than that of broiler chicken, and the content of trace elements such as magnesium, co...
