Chapter 263 (1/2)

”That's nature!” Lian Fangzhou said with a smile: ”otherwise, how can we manage such a wide place? I don't know where to go! ”

Both of them were action groups. They went back to discuss for a while that night, and the next day they were all ready.

Since we are going to raise chickens, the henhouse is naturally built.

Even at the foot of the mountain, Fangzhou left a lot of flat land that had not been reclaimed into cotton fields in advance. It was ready to build a chicken house. At this time, people were invited to work.

It is expected that two herringbone wooden sheds will be built side by side, independent of each other. Each shed is about 13 meters long and 6 meters wide. It is also a wooden structure. The top of the shed is covered with fir bark. It is about half a meter above the ground and connected by several wooden steps more than one meter wide.

The floor of each room is not sealed, but after the framework is built, it is nailed one by one with a solid long wooden strip two finger wide, leaving a finger wide gap between each two. In this way, the chicken that stays in the room overnight can pull the feces and leak down the gap. Only the movable bottom floor under the bottom or in the middle of the chicken house needs to be cleaned with a long handle special shovel In the daytime, the left and right ten windows will be opened for convection ventilation, and the chicken house will be clean and fresh, which can prevent the breeding of bacteria.

Considering that it's not convenient for the young chicken to be mixed with the adult chicken, a small gap is specially separated in each room.

In addition to these two rooms, a slightly smaller room was built for laying eggs for hens and feeding chickens just born.

The newly born chicken only needs ten and a half days to be raised, and then it can be moved to a smaller room separated by the specialized gate of the two henhouses.

On the ground next to the chicken house, several flat areas with a length of 1.5 m and a width of 1.5 m were specially built with smooth blue bricks, which were specially used for feeding and drinking chickens, and were scattered around the chicken house, so that the chickens would not be crowded in one place when eating.

Lianfangzhou plans to raise two thousand chickens this year. It's enough to build two such henhouses.

According to the original plan, she reserved two such henhouses on the north and south sides of the mountain. The rest of the surrounding areas are also planted with fruit trees.

After the chicken house is built, she sprinkles peppermint, wormwood and other herbs all over the mountain and at the foot of the mountain to prevent mosquito breeding and let the chickens peck.

The chicken house is being built and the fence is beginning to be enclosed. In order to prevent weasels, wild mice, etc., Lian Fangzhou specially customized a barbed wire net of up to two and a half meters in the city, and built a masonry foundation of about 10 cm high below, on which barbed wire was installed.

Then, go to the orchard of Linjia to buy some rattan roses, plant a circle along the barbed wire net, let these thorny roses climb up along the barbed wire net, which is not only a beautiful landscape, but also a shade, and can block the outside sight line, which can be described as one stroke.

These work arrangements go on, order Qin Feng to send people to follow up, there will be no lianfangzhou anything.

There is a chicken house. She has to find a way to get the chickens.

There are no modern hatcheries these days. It's obviously not reliable to buy them from rural families.

Most of the chickens hatched by others will be raised by themselves, and the eggs that are not hatched will be saved and sold. Don't say people are willing to sell, even if they are willing to buy, how much can they have? It's not easy to buy enough chickens.

Lian Fangzhou inquired from many parties, only to hear that there was a family who knew Kang chicken in Xiaowang Village in the eastern suburb of the county.

The so-called Kang chicken is a secret but unique skill. There are few people who can meet it. There are at most one or two families in a county who can, or even can't.
