Although the mainland is rich in land and rich in products, under the control of the epidemic in Shanghai, logistics is suspended, foreign materials cannot enter, the problems of lack of vegetables, meat and eggs can not be solved, and even some people have taken advantage of the epidemic to make a fortune in the country, and all kinds of rotten and spoiled meat and vegetables have been sent to the hands of residents, and they have also been punished accordingly. At this time, self-sufficiency is particularly important.
In the countryside, there are large open spaces in front of and behind the houses of each family, where they can grow vegetables, raise chickens, and raise pigs, and if they are sealed in the countryside, there may be no problem in replenishing foreign materials for a year, and in the city for half a month, everyone can't stick to it. Driven by this wave of the epidemic, the balcony chicken has attracted the attention of many urban residents. Some netizens posted their own balcony chicken nest on the Internet, from the pictures shared by netizens can be seen, in the corner of the balcony there is a chicken nest of about 2 square meters, the nest has two chickens, and a lot of vegetables are planted on the side of the balcony window. Netizens also wrote, "During the epidemic period, I am most grateful for my balcony chicken nest, which produces two eggs every day." Presumably, this netizen should have raised chickens to eat eggs at the same time, but also used chicken manure to grow vegetables, taking the current very popular circular breeding planting model.
In the face of this netizen raising chickens on the balcony, many netizens also expressed their views, some netizens said, "I also raised 2, the result of fermentation material preparation is less, if you can prepare more than 20 pounds before the epidemic, chicken feed is now also urgent." Some netizens believe that raising chickens on the balcony is a selfish behavior, "When I was a child, the next door neighbor raised chickens on the balcony, the smell was not to say, and in the summer, maggots climbed to my balcony." Live in a building or don't go your own way, consider the feelings of your neighbors, and have a sense of public morality. ”
Some netizens also shared their experience of picking up eggs when they were young in the comments, "When I was a child, I raised seven or eight chickens at home, and I liked to go to that chicken nest every day when I came back from school to see if there were eggs, and I felt so happy when I picked eggs." Some netizens shared their experience of raising chickens, "When the epidemic began in 20 years, friends sent two live chickens, and eggs were laid in sacks, so they have been raised, and the fun of the epidemic every day in the past few months is to pick up eggs, and chickens are also fighting, basically two eggs every day." Now the chickens are sent to the countryside for the elderly, and they are reluctant to kill. At that time, a special table was also made to record the raw egg situation and egg weight. ”
It can be seen that many netizens still have concerns about raising chickens on the balcony, of which there are two relatively large concerns, one is that chickens will chirp, the other is that chicken manure will have a foul smell, all of which are worried that this will affect the neighbors, after all, living in the building is not like a rural single-family courtyard, the upper and lower floors of the building are very close, if the chicken crows will affect the neighbors, the impact of chicken manure has a smelly smell, it is easy to be complained. So how to solve these two problems?
Chicken chirping is the nature of chickens There is no good way to solve, this depends on the patience of the neighbors, but according to friends who have raised chickens on the balcony, chickens are not loud, even quieter than the children at home, if the neighbors are better at talking, sleep quality is not particularly bad then it should not be noisy. As for the smell of chicken manure, this currently better solution is to use fermentation bedding on the fermentation bed, use the microorganisms in the fermentation bedding to decompose the chicken manure, remove the odor, but it is necessary to often flip the fermentation bedding inside, so that the microorganisms are fully mixed with the chicken manure. Netizens also shared a better way to remove the odor, that is, the chicken manure cleaned out in the fermentation bed is then added to the coffee grounds, so that the odor will be removed more thoroughly, and the fermented bedding can be used as fertilizer for the vegetables grown on the balcony.
In this way, you can eat the healthy eggs of chickens raised purely with grain at home, vegetables are also organic vegetables grown from organic fertilizer, and the hens can also be slaughtered and eaten to eat old hen meat supplements for a long time, which can be described as killing three birds with one stone.
