Poultry breeding
On farms and private farms, ducks are mostly raised for their tasty meat. Therefore, when choosing poultry, preference is given to meat-producing breeds with a high yield. This is why large, early-maturing Mulard ducks are quite popular among poultry farmers. While raising and keeping them isn't particularly difficult, there are some nuances. In this article, we'll discuss the proper raising and feeding of these birds, as well as the necessary conditions for their breeding.

This is because the cost of keeping and feeding this species of bird can yield a good profit. Quail are also prized for their eggs, which are a treasure trove of vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients. A small number of quails can even be raised in an apartment.
Keeping and breeding quailsMuscovy ducks, also known as Muscovy ducks, are quite common in Europe due to their excellent, lean meat.

How to breed Muscovy ducksThe pheasant is divided into two species (the common pheasant and the green pheasant) and belongs to the Phasianidae family. Some representatives are native to Taiwan, while others are found throughout Asia as far north as the Caucasus. Several subspecies of the common pheasant live in North America and Europe, where they were previously introduced and have successfully adapted to local conditions.
What does a pheasant look like?Russia and its neighboring countries boast some of the most remarkable fauna. Where else in Europe or Asia can one find such a diversity of species? One of the most captivating and memorable birds is the white crane, or Siberian crane. This species reaches a height of one and a half meters, with a wingspan of just over two meters. And its beak stands out against the snow-white feathers with a dazzling red color. All this combined makes cranes one of the most memorable birds.
