Artifical Insemintaion along time ago

 

I used to have a regular barber. He was a very diligent man and a chicken farmer. He once said that in his day, artificial insemination was done by inserting rooster sperm into the female's cloaca using a bamboo strip. Of course, the bamboo strip wasn't sharp because it had been smoothed.

He used artificial insemination to breed the best rooster. He had a very good rooster in his pen. He hoped to get some good generation from the roster. He sold the chciken in bird market. He useually sell some good chicken.

Of course, that practice is no longer practiced. To transfer rooster sperm to the female's cloaca, a syringe with a blunt tip is used. Sharp instruments can injure the female's cloaca. Using a syringe is also practical because it simply inserts the sperm into the syringe and then finally inserts it into the female's cloaca.

I don't know the success rate of the artificial insemination performed by the barber. I didn't have time to ask him about it. Certainly, some eggs hatched during the process, otherwise he wouldn't have explained how to do it. The artificial insemination performed by the barber was also ineffective, as only one female was inseminated, considering that the amount of sperm in a single ejaculation is only 0.2 to 0.5 ml. That's only a drop that can fit on the bamboo strip.

Usually, a single artificial insemination can inseminate as many chickens or as many as 20 birds if the sperm is diluted. Of course, thinner sperm won't be able to adhere to the tip of the bamboo.

Notice, the bammbo should be clean. Use a new bambbo for it. Ini my country, we easily find bamboo and make it easy. Off course , today we do not have to use bamboo for it.

Raising Chiken in up roof

In My father house space was limited. Today the house of father still small. It is so dofifcult ti find the large space due the price of land and property so high. It is also unreasonable price. Off course, in my country, people like raiseing chicken. I also raise few chicken in my house.

I put the chciken in roof. You can see my pen in second florr of my father house. I put the pen in the front of seconf floor. the second florr is not ideal because the sun. the roof is so heat and it is not good for the chciken. they feel hot in the roof. The space also limited.

I decide to stop raise the chciken for a while. Since the neaigbor cut jambu tree beside my tree. You can see the map at picture in this post. I sell the red breasted black ayam pelung to other neighbor. I am so sad. Ia also shuld go to other city for lecture.

As long you can provide a good shelter for chicken, you can rasie the chicken uprrof. You can palce the tree that can cover the chicken from heat. My country is a tropical country which sun shine everyday. The tree also help to protect the chciken from wind.

Therefore , you need to modify th epen of the chciken.  place the chciken at the comfort palce. Some pen have try that can collect the chciken manure. You can easily celan the chciken.

I though it ise not difficult to raise chiken in roof as long you have enough spcae. I have jeard the pakistani peole raise cattle at the roof.  It must be amazing. Rasing a cattle in my house is very imposible. My neghbor will angry at me and some police will arrest me for it.  

A red frizzle naked neck chicken

 

I had a red frizzle necked neck chicken. It is a local chicken. I do not know what is exatcly the chicken come from. But most of the bald or naked neck come from Bali and Papua. I guess the chciken age was aroun two three month. At its age, the chicken become independent, we do not have to palce lamp isnisde its pen. I raise the chicken at large pen alone. In the morning, I relase the chicken to find the food.

The chciken is good looks. I loved it. The bodsy is upright like the Siamese Fignting roster or pit rooster. The color is red as I have mention in the ttile above. The feather grow back as the most common frizzle chicken.

One day a naughty kid hand the chicken hard. I guess the kid just want ot play. My chcicken was very tame and easy to hand. It do not need hard work to hand this tame chicken. I remembered that He held the edge of wing my chicken and pull the wing. I am so pity. I stop the action and he released the chicken.

I asked to the brother to replace the chicken but he told me to slaughter my chicnen. He did not relaize that the chicken was very unique. I did not want to slaughter the chicken because it is very unique. So the brother did want to idemnify may chciken. Two day or three says the chciken dying and died. I am so sad. After that I wanti find other chciken that similar to my chciken first.

I went to the bird market where I got the chciken. It is not easy to find najed neck at the market because its rarely, moreover the naked neck frizzle

After several years seaching, I did not find any chicken that similar to my chciken old one. I woner I have the chicken as the real heritage chicken bree of my contry.
