"Don't Yangga!"

"A Qi Gaga!"

The personal follower Gu Heju didn't understand Xu Chen's intentions at the moment. He thought he could have a good meal after he was caught, but unexpectedly, Xu Chen was about to raise him, so he couldn't help but persuade him.

Xu Chen insisted on his idea without any concession, pointed to a few ducks and said, "Raising it and laying eggs!"

The group of people was stunned for a moment.

After a moment, someone couldn't help but lit up his eyes and clapped his hands: "Land eggs, saut!"

So everyone understood Xu Chen's thoughts, and suddenly they turned to joy, and the sounds of stuttering came one after another.

But it sounds easy, but these wild ducks have wings and can fly away at any time. Gu slapped his arms and reminded him: "Puga, Moxiga?"

Xu Chen's face turned black.

Although he was used to this way of speaking, he had enough of it.

However, since everyone had agreed to raise these wild ducks, he naturally said that he would have a way to raise them well. So a group of people gathered around the wild ducks and then went back to continue working, and they were also a little excited.

Everyone loves to eat bird eggs, and it is the best food for babies. It is delicious whether it is steamed or cooked. However, it is too dangerous to find bird eggs in the wild. Everyone doesn’t want anyone to be bitten by snakes anymore.

If these ducks can really raise eggs, it is indeed a very good way.

But as for how to raise it, they can only hope that Xu Chen can really think of a good idea, otherwise it would be a big regret if he suddenly flew away one day.

"Go and chop the sticks!"

Xu Chen covered the five wild ducks with vine baskets and took Gu Heju to go out again with a stone axe.

An hour later, the three of them came back carrying bundles of different thicknesses. Under Xu Chen's command, two tool men helped to chew more than ten thicker sticks into spear-like wooden stakes.

Xu Chen directed Gu Heju to nail all the wooden stakes to the ground with stones and form a square shape.

After the wooden pile was built, the three of them began to tie up fine wooden sticks with rattans horizontally.

After more than an hour of busyness, a duck cage that was two meters long and one meter wide had a rough shape. However, this was just a frame. In order for the duck to run out, it was necessary to use more fine vines and thorns to make it denser. So the three of them took stone swords and axes and went in and out to work hard. By the evening, all the complete duck cages were completed.

It looks like a small house, with thatched on the top and a small door that can be opened and closed on the side.

There were also two stone nests built with stones and some hay on them. In order to seduce the duck to lay eggs inside, he asked Ye to bring two precious duck eggs to put them in the nest.

There is a saying that in rural areas, chickens and ducks usually put an egg in the nest, which is called the nest egg.

Only with this egg-inducing egg, chickens and ducks think that there is no danger in laying eggs here.

If there is no egg in the nest, you cannot pick up the eggs in the chicken coop every time, so it is best to keep one.

Otherwise, the chickens and ducks would think that laying eggs in their nests is not safe and they would lay them everywhere.

Xu Chen has seen many people when he was a child, including those who go down into ditches, those who go down into the corners of the walls, those who go down into the open air, and even those who go down to the dining table, bed, stove, and even those who go down into the pot.

He still clearly remembered that once he went to school, there was an egg in his schoolbag, and he didn't realize it until it broke.

Because he was afraid that his parents would get scolded, he kept it in his heart and didn't dare to say it. He thought that some friend who was killed by Thousand Swords was messing with him.

Until one day.

He saw a hen jumping sneakily from the window into the house where he was sleeping, then into his open schoolbag, and soon after, he trembled and giggled with satisfaction and jumped out of the window.

He had an epiphany at that time.

This is not a serious old hen.

It cheated, just like the widow who had a wild breed in the village, he actually framed himself and laid a wild egg.

Other people's children were determined not to take it, so he stuffed the egg into his friend's schoolbag next door. When he came back from school the next day, he heard his friend's heart-wrenching crying.

Looking at the duck house that Xu Chen made.

All the tribe members praised Xu Chen's creativity.

It means that it is indeed very convenient to raise this way, and the ducks will not fly away.

However, Xu Chen knew that having a cage alone was far from enough. The domestic ducks were continuously fed and domesticated by wild ducks.

Although I often heard that wild ducks fell into the family ducks and followed the fish-like fish to eat and drink, pretending to be a member of the family duck, these goods actually flew away.

Even domestic ducks sometimes are seduced by passing wild ducks, thinking that they are soaring with their wings, so they flap their wings and fly away.

No matter whether you can fly to the south or not, it at least means that even the domestic ducks can actually fly away at any time.

In order to solve this problem once and for all, Xu Chen cut off most of the feathers on all the ducks' wings with a stone knife before putting a few ducks into the duck house.

It took half an hour toss and then, until before and after dinner, several bald wild ducks were finally thrown into the duck house. When they were free, they flapped their wings and wanted to fly, but they were powerless and could only flap inside and make quarrels of dissatisfaction.

Seeing the five mallards finally calm down slowly, Xu Chen showed a relieved smile.

Compared with the domestication of other large livestock, domestication of poultry is much simpler.

Unlike cats, dogs, cows and horses, it only needs to be locked up and fed.

Because poultry does not need to be obedient, humans only need their meat and eggs.

But the animals such as cattle, horse, cats, and dogs are completely different. For humans, they are not simply food animals, but tool animals. They are a symbiotic dependence relationship and play an important and irreplaceable role in the history of human civilization development.

Especially the two animals, cattle and horse.

It can be said that it is inseparable from human evolution. Without cattle and horses, humans cannot transcend slash-and-burn farming and enter the real era of farming civilization.

All domesticated animals can survive without humans.

This is especially true for poultry. They only need to be released into the wild for a period of time. Perhaps one generation or two generations later, they will regain their nature as wild birds.

The only difference between poultry and wild birds is the speed at which they grow and the number of eggs they lay.

Domestic ducks can lay eggs almost every day, but wild ducks usually lay eggs only in spring.

Therefore, Xu Chen was not sure how many eggs these wild ducks could lay.

What he hopes now is that these ducks cannot be all male ducks or female ducks. As long as one or two small ducks can be hatched, the poultry maintenance plan will be completely successful.

Duck lays eggs, and eggs hatch ducks, and their descendants are endless.

In a few years, the Ba people will definitely be able to raise a large group of ducks, which can eat meat and lay eggs, and their quality of life will inevitably improve greatly.

In addition, in order to make his duck raising plan more successful, the bird catching operation can continue. As long as the number of arrests is large, he believes that he will be able to hatch the ducklings this year. If it really doesn't work, he will go to the river beach to risk steal some back.

There are at least hundreds of wild ducks that have lived in the valley recently, which is enough for him to go from spring to autumn.

There are also many geese. They are the ancestors of domestic geese. They are much larger than wild ducks. They are strong in physical strength and have stronger flying ability, are more vigilant and more difficult to capture.

Therefore, it is relatively difficult to catch geese.

But if a few can be caught, the poultry domestication plan will be more successful.

There are actually quite a few pheasants in the valley. Most of the feathers worn by Mother Ba and some women are the tail feathers of male pheasants. Feng and other groups have hunted them several times with bows and arrows. Now many of them use arrows to make arrows are feathers on the pheasant’s wings.

Overall, the present is an era of extremely prosperous animals and plants.

As long as you actively use your brain, there are always more ways than difficulties.
