Chapter 161: Placing Wild Eggs
Why Yao Jun chose to breed pheasants first is because pheasants are the strongest in terms of both reproductive cycle and reproductive ability, and even if there are occasional wild eggs that cannot survive, they can be sold.
The first step to success has already been taken, and Yao Jun only needs to wait for the first batch of wild eggs to grow into pheasants, so that he can accumulate experience and march into the breeding of other wild animals.
Not to mention that wild ducks and hares are also simple to feed, and the value of wild animals such as wild boars and coyotes is even higher, Yao Jun has already thought about it, the food must be eaten in one bite, and the road must be walked step by step.
He wants to go from simple to difficult, and he wants to revitalize all the wild animals on Phoenix Mountain.
Although Yao Jun does not plan to sell this national protected animal, but when the experience is accumulated, he can also let these rare protected animals breed.
But now, the most important thing for Yao Jun is to rush down the mountain.
"Xiao Tao, help me bring the big basket!" Yao Jun straightened up and shouted in the direction of the wooden shed.
"Okay!" Xiao Tao heard Yao Jun's voice from a distance, although she was a little puzzled, she still walked towards Yao Jun with a big basket in her arms.
In fact, Xiao Tao didn't understand why Yao Jun would prepare two empty baskets to go up the mountain.
It is said that it is empty, in fact, there are a lot of things inside, the outside of the basket is hugged with red cotton cloth, the hole is covered, the basket is spread with two layers of hay, and a layer of chicken feathers is sandwiched, which looks particularly soft.
Just like that, the hay and chicken feathers take up a lot of space, and if you want to put something, you can't put too much of it.
But Xiao Tao is good at this, although she can't understand it, she won't ask questions, she will look with her eyes and observe with her heart.
When Xiao Tao picked up the weeds and walked to Yao Jun's side, she was completely stunned, the wild eggs in this place could scare her.
Xiao Tao has seen wild eggs, when Yao Laohan took Yao Jun to the mountains to hunt, the most common thing to catch is this pheasant, and occasionally in the pheasant nest, you can also take out one or two eggs.
There are few wild eggs, and Yao Laohan didn't take them out to sell, so he handed them over to Xiao Tao to cook, and let Xiao Tao and Yao Jun share them, the old man himself didn't eat them, even if he took out three eggs, the old man also let Yao Jun and Xiao Tao share one and a half.
Xiao Tao didn't know if Yao Laohan had eaten this wild egg in his life.
Thinking of the taste of this wild egg, Xiao Tao inevitably swallowed her saliva, people who have never eaten wild eggs can't imagine how delicious a small egg is.
"Brother, what's going on, there are so many wild eggs?" After being stunned for a while, Xiao Tao asked with some surprise.
Yao Jun's face was full of smiles, and he said happily: "Little Peach, aren't we doing this wild animal breeding, this is our first step, these wild eggs can hatch chicks!"
"What?" Xiao Tao was stunned by Yao Jun's words, and it took a while to come back to her senses, and she hurriedly put down the basket, walked to Yao Jun's side, snatched a wild egg from his hand, and looked at it carefully, and after a long time, Xiao Tao muttered, "Can it really survive?"
After losing his mind for a while, Xiao Tao was shocked and pointed to the pile of wild eggs on the ground and asked, "Brother, these can all survive?"
"That's right!" Yao Jun nodded, smiling and revealing his shiny and neat white teeth, "All of these can be lived!"
"Is this true?" Xiao Tao was still in a trance, with a look of disbelief.
"Of course it's true!" Yao Jun nodded, "I've checked every single one." ”
"Hee-hee-hee-hee......-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee-he
Yao Jun was already excited, so he was not as exaggerated as Xiao Tao, he hugged Xiao Tao tightly and enjoyed the happiness of this moment.
Some people may think that it is just a hundred wild eggs, and it is nothing.
However, this is different, this is a wild egg that can survive completely, as long as it is taken care of, it is a hundred pheasants, and with this successful example, there can be more successful examples, so Xiao Tao will be so excited.
"It's too early to say success!" Yao Jun touched Xiao Tao's jade back, although he now has the meaning of the country in his hand and the beauty in his arms, but now is really not the time to relax, the next thing is the hard battle, "Xiao Tao, help me put the wild eggs in this basket, let's move back to the wooden shed." ”
"Brother......" Xiao Tao listened to Yao Jun's words, hesitated a little, hesitated for a moment, and then Xiao Tao said, "We don't have the equipment to artificially incubate eggs, and if there is no hen to hatch, this wild egg ......."
Xiao Tao said this very clearly, people who have raised chickens know that the eggs must be kept at a constant temperature to hatch, in general, now people who raise chickens are incubated by machines, if not through the machine, the body temperature of the hen is needed to hatch.
Xiao Tao was too happy just now, so she didn't think of this, if she and Yao Jun moved these wild eggs, then how to hatch these eggs would be a big problem.
"Don't worry, brother has a way to solve it!" Yao Jun smiled mysteriously.
Xiao Tao still said with some hesitation: "But, brother......"
"Xiao Tao, don't you believe what your brother said?" Yao Jun deliberately grimaced.
"No, no, brother's words, of course Xiao Tao believes it. Xiao Tao waved his hand again and again.
"Then let's do it quickly!" After Yao Jun said this, he squatted down to pick up eggs, beckoned, and motioned for Xiao Tao to act too.
Although Xiao Tao was full of doubts in her heart, she still squatted down obediently to help.
The two of them carefully wiped each wild egg briefly, not daring to touch the water or too hard, for fear that the wild egg would be sick.
Wild eggs can also get sick, although the outside of the eggshell is not visible to the eye, but in fact there are many small holes, if you are not careful, bacteria will enter the egg through the small holes, and the egg is likely to die before hatching.
After a long while, the two of them put the eggs into the basket, and then Yao Jun carried them to the back of the wooden shed.
Originally, Xiao Tao was still curious, why Yao Jun chose this wooden shed in such a lush place as the grass, and when Yao Jun took out the eggs one by one and put them in the grass behind the wooden shed, Xiao Tao found that this was actually a pheasant's nest on a hot day.
"Xiao Tao, come with me, and there is a surprise for you to see!" Yao Jun placed these wild eggs that could survive, and then gave instructions to the female pheasant with the Ten Thousand Beast Technique, and then said to Xiao Tao.
"And the surprise?" Xiao Tao was stunned for a moment and asked curiously, "What is the surprise?"
