The Age of Rebirth: Winning since the educated youth went to the countryside
Chapter 921 Goose Egg Breaks Shell
Zhou Ziwen, Li Lei and Chen Guowei walked into the pig farm and were immediately attracted by the lively scene inside.
The little pigs were running around in the pen, some were fighting for food, some were playing, it was a lively scene.
"These little piglets have adapted quite quickly. It seems our preparations have paid off."
Li Lei looked at these lively little pigs and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Chen Guowei also nodded. "Yes, these Landrace pigs are indeed very adaptable. However, we still cannot take it lightly and need to closely monitor their eating and health conditions."
Zhou Ziwen carefully observed each piglet and asked Li Lei and Chen Guowei some detailed questions from time to time.
Although Chen Guowei is a researcher at the College of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, Zhou Ziwen is better than him when it comes to breeding technology.
Zhou Ziwen's breeding technology has reached level four, and his animal taming skills have also reached level four.
These two skills complement each other, giving him a unique advantage in farming.
He was able to better understand the piglets' habits and provide more appropriate care and management.
Chen Guowei, on the other hand, focused more on theoretical knowledge such as the habits and growth environment of piglets.
He has accumulated rich academic experience through long-term research on different pig breeds.
In this regard, Zhou Ziwen cannot compare to him.
Of course, this is only temporary. His breeding skill is only level four, which is not high, but it can be said to be enough.
"Ziwen, do you think this little piglet is a little too active?"
Chen Guowei asked, pointing at a piglet running back and forth in the pen.
Although he had only known Zhou Ziwen for a short time, he knew that Zhou Ziwen's breeding skills were excellent, even better than his.
Although it sounds incredible, it is the truth.
Zhou Ziwen looked in the direction Chen Guowei pointed and carefully observed the behavior of the piglet.
He noticed that this little piglet was indeed more active than the others. Not only did it run around frequently, but it also dug its nose into the soil from time to time, appearing to be full of energy.
"It's okay. It's normal for some piglets to be active. It's good to be active! The more they move, the more they eat. The more they eat, the faster they grow."
Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
"I also think it grows the fastest." Chen Guowei nodded in agreement.
The two chatted for a while, and then Zhou Ziwen went to see the biogas tank.
There have been heavy rains in the past few days, and the biogas digester that has not yet been built has also been affected.
Zhou Ziwen came to the biogas tank construction site and took a careful look.
He found that some small areas of the pit wall of the biogas tank had collapsed, and there was a lot of water at the bottom of the pit.
But this is not a big problem.
Just release the accumulated water at the bottom of the pit. As for the soil falling off the pit wall, it is not a problem either. You will have to paste it with cement later anyway, so there is no need to worry about it falling off.
It is still raining outside and the members have not gone to work yet. We have to wait until tomorrow to deal with the biogas tank.
He had already looked at the weather outside and knew that the rain would stop today.
The rainstorm was so severe this time that not only did some houses in the village collapse, but even the dam was about to collapse.
Fortunately, someone discovered it in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
After taking a walk around the pig farm, Zhou Ziwen said hello to Li Lei and Chen Guowei, and then returned home.
When he got home, Chen Shiying had already returned and was playing with little Yueyue in her arms.
Seeing Zhou Ziwen coming back, little Yueyue immediately stretched out her little hands and let out a happy cry.
Zhou Ziwen felt warm in his heart, he walked up quickly, hugged little Yueyue in his arms, and kissed her on her little face.
"Is anyone behaving well today?" Zhou Ziwen asked with a smile.
Little Yueyue seemed to understand what he said and made a "hmm" sound.
Chen Shiying smiled and said: "Little Yueyue was very well behaved today, she didn't cry at all."
"Haha, that's good."
In fact, little Yueyue has never liked to cry since she was born.
Except for a little noise when feeling sleepy, he is fine otherwise.
After playing with Yueyue for a while, Zhou Ziwen returned to the house and began to check the situation in the incubator.
Judging from the time, the goose eggs that were hatched earlier should be hatching.
When leaving in the morning, Zhou Ziwen checked and found that one of the goose eggs had moved.
He gently opened the incubator and saw that the goose eggs inside had changed a little compared to this morning.
The crack on the goose egg that had moved before became bigger, as if the goose inside was trying hard to break out of the shell.
Chen Shiying also walked into the house holding little Yueyue. Seeing Zhou Ziwen observing the goose eggs, she asked softly, "Is it about to break the shell?"
Zhou Ziwen nodded and said, "Well, this goose egg should be able to hatch soon."
Just as they were talking, they suddenly heard a "crack" and the crack on the goose egg became a little bigger. The mouth of a goose stretched out from the crack, and it pecked at the eggshell hard, trying to expand the opening.
There were not many goose eggs in the incubator. He bought eight goose eggs at first and incubated all of them, but several were scrapped during the incubation process, and now there are only five left.
In addition to the one that hatched the fastest, there were small cracks on the surfaces of the other goose eggs, and it seemed that they had also hatched today.
Hearing the noise, Chen Qiaoyi also ran over to watch the fun.
This was not the first time Zhou Ziwen had hatched eggs, and he had no interest in watching the goslings hatch.
Chen Qiaoyi and Chen Shiying, on the other hand, seemed very excited. They stared at the goose eggs in the incubator, looking forward to the birth of the goslings.
Chen Qiaoyi asked Zhou Ziwen curiously: "Brother Ziwen, when will these goslings be able to completely hatch?"
Zhou Ziwen replied: "It should be soon. Generally speaking, after the crack appears, the goslings will hatch one after another within a few hours."
"It takes so long? I remember it didn't take this long when hatching chicks before!" Chen Qiaoyi was a little surprised.
Zhou Ziwen explained with a smile: "Although the hatching process of goslings and chicks is somewhat similar, there are also some differences. The eggshell of a gosling is relatively thick, so it may take more time to hatch."
After hearing this, Chen Qiaoyi nodded, not quite understanding.
At this moment, the crack of another goose egg rapidly expanded, and the mouth of a goose stretched out.
This gosling seemed more energetic than the previous one. It pecked at the eggshell hard, and the "crunching" sound was particularly clear in the room.
Chen Qiaoyi shouted excitedly: "Another gosling is coming out!"
As everyone expected, the gosling successfully broke out of its shell.
It was wet all over, with its fur clinging tightly to its body, and its eyes were black and shiny, looking very cute.
Zhou Ziwen carefully placed it in the prepared box together with the goose.
At this time, the remaining goose eggs have also made varying degrees of progress.
Some of the goose eggs have cracks that are gradually expanding, while others have just started to show obvious cracks.
