Duck Raising and Breeding
September 30th, 2007

Introduction:
1. The availability of water for ducks for swimming does not affect much their egg laying. It does affect their food intake -they eat more when they can swim, rather than when given only drinking water.
2. The size of the coop is best, if not smaller, than 3.5 sq. ft. for every duck.
3. If artificial lighting is used, add 2-4 hours more daily, aside from 12 hours of natural day light.
4. If natural feeds from the sea are not available (shrimps, shell or fish) give them half feed and half chicken laying mass.

Goat raising in the Philippines have not been fully tapped because most of the people prefer cow’s milk. We import from other countries just to sustain our needs for cow’s milk. and with regards to goat’s meat, others don’t like the taste because they say goats are “mapanghi or maanggo” (smells like urine) similar to lamb.
