Local chickens, also known as grass chickens or "stupid chickens," are free-range broilers raised in mountainous areas, orchards, and forests. These chickens are highly valued for their tender, flavorful meat and nutritious eggs, which are considered green food due to their natural, pollution-free growth. In recent years, they have become increasingly popular among health-conscious consumers, leading to a steady rise in market prices.
1. **Site Selection**: The rearing area should be located far from residential zones, industrial sites, and major roads to ensure a quiet, clean environment. Access to fresh, uncontaminated water sources such as streams or ponds is essential.
2. **Shelter Construction**: In southern regions, choose a flat, sheltered area and build simple coops using materials like bamboo, canvas, or linoleum, facing north-south for optimal ventilation. Plastic shelters can also be used for shade during hot days. In the northern loess plateau, cave-like structures can be built on hillsides, with elevated chicken frames for nighttime resting.
3. **Stocking Scale**: It's recommended to raise around 2,000 chickens per forest area. Too many make management difficult, while too few reduce profitability. Stocking is best done from late spring to mid-autumn, as colder winter temperatures reduce feed intake and growth rates.
4. **Rearing Methods**: Choose disease-resistant breeds and start with artificial brooding for the first 34 days. Afterward, transfer them to the mountains. Initially, chickens won’t know how to return to the coop, so training is necessary. Two people are usually involved: one whistles and throws feed to attract the chickens, while the other gently drives them uphill. This process is repeated daily, especially at noon. In the evening, the same method teaches them to return home. After about 10 days of training, the chickens develop a conditioned response.
5. **Important Notes**: For the first few days after moving to the mountain, add a small amount of vitamin C or a multivitamin supplement to their feed or water. No antibiotics or deworming medications are needed for the first three months after release, as the chickens are raised in a natural, healthy environment.
By following these practices, farmers can produce high-quality, sustainable poultry that meets growing consumer demand for organic and eco-friendly food products.
Video Measuring Machine
The video measuring machine is based on CCD digital image, relying on the powerful software capabilities of computer screen measurement technology and spatial geometry operation. After installing the special control and graphic measurement software, the computer becomes the measurement brain with the soul of the software and is the main body of the whole equipment. It can quickly read the displacement value of the optical ruler, and obtain the desired result instantly through the software module operation based on the spatial geometry; A graph is generated on the screen for the operator to compare the image with the image so that the possible deviation of the measurement results can be identified intuitively.
video measuring machine is a high-precision optical image-measuring instrument composed of a high-resolution CCD color lens, continuous zoom objective, color display, video crosshair display, precision grating ruler, multi-function data processor, data measuring software and high-precision workbench structure.
The instrument applies to all application fields for two-dimensional plane measurement. These fields include machinery, electronics, molds, injection molding, hardware, rubber, low-voltage electrical appliances, magnetic materials, precision hardware, precision stamping, connectors, connectors, terminals, mobile phones, home appliances, computers (computers), liquid crystal television (LCD), printed circuit boards (circuit boards, PCBs), automobiles, medical devices, clocks, screws, springs, instruments, gears, cams, threads, radius templates, thread templates Wire and cable, cutter, bearing, screen, test screen, cement screen, screen plate (steel mesh, SMT template), etc.
