Duck Raising Business Guide
April 24, 2009 by Leo 8,770 Views
Duck Raising is a lucrative livestock industry in the Philippines because of its egg. Its most important product, the balut (boiled incubated duck’s egg), is sold daily throughout the archipelago for its delicious flavor and nutritive value.
Duck raising is especially recommended in baytowns like those bordering the shores of Laguna de Bay, where there are abundant supplies of fresh water snails which make good duck food.

we have 2000 heads of duck laying eggs but the problem is that it only lay 600 eggs a day can you help us how to increase egg production we are only on an experience and are not expert on this side
Hi sir Leo,
I am on the itik eggs production right now. I have 800 female and 80 male itik but they just only lay egg almost 300pcs a day. I am feeding them pure blend feeds 2 1/2 bags per day sa food palang po lugi na ako wala akong kinikita.Binili ko ang mga itik on Feb. then nag start silang mag lay egg March then April tumaas ang production nila 650 above every day til May 2nd week. then bigla nalang bumaba 3rd week of May naging 450 pababa hanggang nung June naging less than 100pcs nalang every day, sabi nila normal lang daw un kase 9mos nagpapalit ng feather at 1mos lang un pero bakit hanggang ngaun Sept na d parin tumataas ang pangingitlog nila.Lugi na ako ng almost 4mos sa food til now wala pang profit. Ano pong gagawin ko para tumaas ang egg production ng mga itik ? Hope matulungan nyo po ako.Salamat !
@cherry, maraming pwedeng maging dahilan bakit bumaba ang egg production. meron ka bang manual or program na sinusunod sa pag aalaga ng itik? or is it based on experience lang?
1. sure ka ba na ang nabili mong ready-to-lay ducks is really “dumalaga?” may mga hatcheries kasi na hinahaluan nila ng matanda na o tinatawag nilang “balikbayan.” ito yung nakapangitlog na ng ilang buwan, tapos nag lugon (molt). reliable ba yung nabilhan mo?
2. feeds. nag try ka bang mag-palit ng ibang brand ng feeds? how about medications?
3. weather. maaring nakakaapekto din ang palit-palit na weather ngayon.
4. visual observation. may mga matamlay bang itik, lalo na yung palagi lang naka-upo? any signs ng may sakit?
lahat ng nasa taas ay maaring makapag contribute sa paghina ng egg production. hindi rin ako experto sa pag aalaga ng itik. pinaka mainam siguro, magtanong-tanong ka rin sa iba pang nag aalaga ng itik, lalo na yung matagal na sa ganitong negosyo. pwede ka rin siguro mag consulta sa isang beterinaryo. check mo rin ang forum na ito tungkol sa mga problema, tips at advice sa pag iitik: http://pcarrd.dost.gov.ph/message/viewforum.php?id=19
Salamat po sa response.
Nag consult na kami sa beterinaryo sabi nya kulang daw sa lights dinagdagan na namin still mababa parin po ang eggs production..
