What are the benefits of feeding salt water to goose in breeding? Salt can improve the palatability of goose diet, promote appetite and improve feed utilization rate. If the goose's diet salt is insufficient, it will cause loss of appetite and digestive disorders, stunting of goslings, pecking addiction, reducing the weight and egg weight of the laying goose, and reducing the laying rate.

Salt is added to goose feed, mainly sodium ions and chloride ions. They participate in a variety of microcirculation and metabolism in the goose body. They have the effect of maintaining the acid-base balance of the goose body and maintaining the balance of osmotic pressure between cells and blood. In addition, they are also raw materials for the formation of gastric juice and gastric acid, which can promote the activity of digestive enzymes and play an important role in the digestion and absorption of fat and protein. In the goose feed to add the right amount of salt, but alsoIncreasepalatability, increase the appetite of the goose,Improvefeed utilization rate.

Therefore, salt plays an important role in the growth and development of geese. In the case of insufficient or lack of salt in the goose diet, the goose will have the symptoms of loss of appetite and indigestion, which will lead to the stunting of goslings and pecking addiction, which will reduce the weight and egg weight of the laying goose and reduce the egg production rate.

Supplemental salt can enhance salt, improve digestion, while salt can promote blood circulation, enhance the body immunity of geese. Breeders can use two methods when feeding the goose salt. One is to add it into the drinking water for the goose to absorb, and the other is to stir it into the feed or pasture to guide the goose to eat. At the same time, the amount of salt absorbed by geese needs to be reasonably controlled. Excessive intake will destroy the acid-base balance in geese and induce diseases.

Method of adding salt

In general, we recommend that the amount of salt added should not exceed0.5, that is, 5‰ content, that is to say, in the daily feed of 1,000kg, the amount of salt added should not exceed 5kg, generally 3kg to 5kg is the most suitable.

Note:If you add too much, it is very easy to cause salt poisoning. Now it is loss of appetite or waste, expansion of the crop, viscous secretions from the nose and mouth, thirst of the goose, drinking a lot of water, often diarrhea, movement disorders, weakness of the feet, walking Difficulty and other neurological symptoms. Later suffering from goose weakness, breathing difficulties, convulsions, and finally collapse and die.

Treatment: Feeding added vitamins (Jin Weihe Quick Supplement) and glucose5% water, usually after 3-5 days,GooseThe symptoms of chronic salt poisoning will improve.
