Production losses in the parent flock depend on the genetic structure of the birds, the size of the group, the relationship of the sexes, the arrangement of space in the pheasantry, the nutrition, the age of the females and the duration of the laying season. The state of physical condition and mortality of young pheasants in nursing affect: temperature, ventilation, nutrition, lighting, hygiene ... The losses of young pheasants after settling in the hunting ground occur because of diseases and parasites, the lack of food (and water), and most of all because of predators. Compared to the number of eggs in the breeding flock, the number of young birds surviving to winter is only 7-10 per a female pheasant. Due to such a small number and high production costs, maximum control of all procedures in the technology of cultivation of pheasant, nutrition and in settlement of the hunting grounds, as well as the division of jobs between the faculty in order to their specialization is necessary. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/32409 | ISBN: | 9788678343162 | Rights: | Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 United States |
