Chapter 25 Chicken Circle
In the afternoon, Pei Yao sat on a rattan bench and enjoyed the cool under the bamboo shed, blowing the breeze from the bamboo forest, which was very comfortable!
She was not idle, and tied a chicken coop with rattan on a frame made of bamboo. Now the two kinds of chicks are still in the cave, separated in the grass basket, a nest of small gray gray, a nest of tender yellow and yellow, a small hairball chirping is cute.
The pheasants are too young to go to the ground, and it is not easy to feed them if they catch a cold without the guidance of a hen
She prepares the pheasants to be bigger, about a week, put them in the cage outside, cover the cage with a straw curtain in the morning and evening, and let them adapt to it with a little light during the day, and they can go to the ground in half a month.
First enclose a small place to let the chickens walk and practice eating grass seeds and insects or something, and when the habit of raising the habit will automatically return to the nest in the evening, they are also bigger, and they will not be bullied by other animals in the forest, you can expand the range and raise them into the bamboo forest, of course, you still have to fence them up.
In fact, this trouble is also because there is no relationship between hens, if there is a mother hen leading, all problems do not exist, and the chickens can follow the back of the mother chicken's ass for a few days.
When it is cold, the mother chicken will take good care of them, and will teach them skills and develop the same habits as the hens, such as how to find the insects quickly and accurately and automatically return to the nest to sleep in the evening.
Oh, Pei Yao took the place of Mother Chicken, painful and happy.
The movements in the hands are non-stop, up and down the rattan flying, alternating horizontally and vertically.
Three of them are lined up in a row to form a grid, and there is a mahjong-sized hole in the middle of the crossing, so that the cage is bright and strong, and it is not easy to get into mice.
The bottom of the cage is made of bamboo poles as the main rod, and the thick bamboo blank strips are smooth and top-up to make the bottom of the net-like cage, so that the chicken manure can leak through the hole to the outside of the cage for easy cleaning.
Not only that, but she also cleverly made a mechanism, the cage is more than two meters long, half a meter wide and high, and there are six 30-centimeter pillar legs supported below.
Make an entrance in the middle of the side of the cage, and tie a rattan gate of the same size to the lower edge to form a movable mechanism. In this way, the rattan door can be blocked with a bolt when it is closed, and the rattan door can be opened obliquely to the ground, which can be used as a ladder for the chickens, of course, the chickens will not need to grow up, and they can jump into the cage at once, even if they jump to the cage and squat, it is very easy.
In the afternoon, the chicken cage was made and placed under the bamboo shed to dry.
After a few days, when the chicks can go to the ground, just spread the gangan in the corner of the cage.
At night, when it was getting dark, Duoduo lay down in the cave a little far from the fire, gnawing on its big bones.
The bones didn't have any meat, and the soup was boiled again, and Pei Yao cut off the back of the kitchen knife and sucked the bone water.
It can be said that there is no way to eat a smooth bone, at most it licks and smells it, but it never gets tired of it, and it will hide it like a treasure if it can't finish eating.
Pei Yao also had nothing to do to change the grass leaf mat for the little chicks, added water, lit the light of the fire, chopped some bamboo blanks with a firewood knife and weaved a long straw curtain thirty or forty centimeters wide. When you have time, you can find a place to insert the bamboo blank into the ground, and fix this straw curtain around the bamboo blank, so as to prevent the chickens from running out.
I was about to go to bed, and suddenly I slapped my head! Patronizing and thinking about the little chick, she didn't do the most important thing when she went to the market in the morning, she thought it was a little cold at night, and she was going to get a cool quilt yet.
Fortunately, today is a little warmer than yesterday, and I feel that the temperature is just right.
Lying on the bed covered with a thick sheet, his hands resting under his head, and his eyeballs under his eyelids were spinning.
Pei Yao couldn't sleep for a while, and she was tossing and turning on the bed. Thinking is imaginative, I want to sell herbs for a while to make some money, tomorrow I will go up the mountain in addition to collecting food that can be stored, but also cut more herbs, especially cassia grass, I don't know if the price will be high in the county, what is the county like?
Turned over again, remembered the sale of herbs, and remembered the little sister who rushed to the market and the new acquaintance, her family was so poor and it didn't look as good as herself, and the surrounding people were not rich, if she wore this kind of family, how would she live...
At dawn, inhaling the fresh mountain and forest air and listening to the melodious birdsong, Pei Yao stood in the courtyard and stretched her waist and turned her arms to move her body.
Later, I fed myself, Duoduo and eleven chickens, a total of thirteen bellies.
The baby pheasant cub has been out of the shell for two days, and it grows very quickly, obviously the fur is much more fluffy and thick, and the amount of food eaten is also growing.
She has tried to put two kinds of chickens together to play, but she didn't expect to be completely divided into two groups, not close to each other, and she imagined that a group of chickens with pheasants will not lose the scene is completely different, it seems that as grandma said, when the pheasant grows up, cut off the feathers on the wings or tie the legs with a rope so that it can't run, otherwise the pheasant will fly away. With such a big mountain, the pheasants can't be found when they fly out.
