917. Kidnapping that comes and goes like the wind (3/5)

Koxi has worked here for a while before and is responsible for the breeding and medical issues of mini livestock, so she is more familiar with it.

She introduced: "Actually, boss, if possible, I suggest you raise more mini livestock. Take this kind of mini donkey for example, they eat less than ordinary donkeys, but the corresponding input-output ratio is higher."

"That is, if you are feeding a hundred kilograms of grass, the mini donkey grows faster than a normal donkey and grows more flesh," Cored added.

Wang Bo looked at him in surprise: "My God, do you raise these small animals to eat?"

Corred also looked at him in surprise: "Aren't you?"

Wang Bo shook his head and said, "No, I use it for tourism, I want them to live and show it to tourists."

Corred laughed out loud: "Very good, then I decided we can make this deal. You can choose, just choose whatever you want."

Wang Bo was a little confused by him: "What does it mean?"

Corred smiled and said, "It's very simple. I don't want to sell their varieties to those meat farms. I'm studying these varieties not to slaughter and sell meat!"

As he said that, he hugged Wang Bo's shoulder intimately: "Koxi called me and talked about this problem, but I don't trust you very much, so it's better to hear it with my own ears."

Wang Bo: “…”

The city has deep routines, and the wilderness has deeper routines. It is just selling cattle, sheep and pigs. This guy can use the skills of clichés and is absolutely inappropriate.

However, for many meat-used livestock farms, raising such small beasts is also a good choice now. The market is currently in a slump and feed prices have risen sharply, so ranchers need to live a careful life.

Wang Bo asked: "If you are not trying to supply these livestock to the ranch, then you are not valuable in studying them, right? Isn't it mainly for meat to cultivate livestock such as cattle, sheep, pigs, etc.?"

Corred said seriously: "Of course not, they can be our companions. Since you can keep a big dog as a pet, why can't you keep a horse or a goat?"

Bao Wen smiled. This is really a good question: "I think there are many people who raise horses and make pets, but the cost is too high to restrict the promotion of this kind of pet. As for goats? Why do you keep goats and make pets? If you have fattened, you can eat hot pot?"

This was a little stimulating to Corred, and he glared at Bowen and said, "Animals are good friends of humans, we can't just think about eating them!"

Wang Bo was excited when he saw the rancher, and quickly signaled Bao Wen to shut up, don't irritate him. He felt that the rancher had a mental problem.

Mini livestock has been promoted in New Zealand for a long time, and people realize that the larger the livestock, the better. For example, in China, when breeding pigs are slaughtered, they are not breeding to the largest, but to a critical point. In the future, pigs eat more but grow less meat.

In the 1950s and 1960s, New Zealand farmers were not very considering the input and output ratio of cattle.

At that time, the feed price was low and there were many pastures. Farmers could stock it as much as possible, so that cattle and sheep could grow as much as they could, and get as much meat as possible from each cow.

The situation is different now, and ranchers must first consider the input-output ratio.

When Wang Bo was preparing to breed these animals, he paid attention to this issue.

Take the mini-tumored cattle he breeds now, which is actually more economical than normal tumored cattle.

Mini-tumored cattle can only grow as high as the legs of normal cattle, but the weight is not small, ranging from 227 kg to 318 kg, almost one-third of that of normal cattle.

However, they eat only one-quarter or even less of that of ordinary cattle, which means higher meat production.

With this advantage, the promotion of mini animals is not doing well.

These mini cattle and sheep are too small, and they will have to work a lot of extra labor if they want to breed them on the pastures.

For example, ordinary farm fences cannot block them at all, so the owner needs to encrypt the fences. In addition, it is not easy to buy collars that are suitable for them.

Also, the smaller the animal has poorer its immune resistance, the more likely these calfs and lambs are to get sick. New Zealand strictly controls the use of animal drugs, and livestock diseases are not easy to solve.

After introducing the mini donkey, there are many animal breeds in other fences.

There are several types of mini cows here, such as miniature racing, small Dexter cows, mini longhorn cows, etc.

There are also many countries in the world where these animals are found. They are different from Niu Niu. They are not dwarfs or variants, but varieties that already exist. They are not promoted because of their meat-producing ability.

There is also a beautiful calf in Corred's ranch with black and white fur. This is the first time Wang Bo has seen this cattle. He has never seen it when he searched online before.

Others, as they were amazed when watching, Corred said proudly: "This is the new mini cow I have cultivated. I named it Panda Cow."

"Do you know about pandas? China's national treasure is a very popular animal. I hope that this kind of cow can become a popular pet in the family, just like pandas."

Wang Bo shook his head and said, "Man, I admit that you are a genius, but it is difficult for the family to raise cattle and sheep as pets."

Corred argued: "Why? Why do people like to keep cats and dogs? Not because they are small? The livestock I have developed are small and eat very little, so they are also suitable for pets."

Wang Bo doesn't argue with him, he won't use it as a pet anyway.

In addition to cattle and donkeys, there are mini sheep on the ranch, called Nigerian dwarf goats.

Even if this sheep is adult, it is only as tall as a human knee. They are derived from the descendants of small West African sheep and were originally shipped to the United States and became a delicious meal for large cats in the zoo.

Later, someone cultivated this goat and selected smaller breeds, which were used as pets.

Wang Bo is most interested in mini horses. There are newborn ponies in the stables of the ranch. They live in places like children's isolation rooms, and someone is specifically responsible for feeding them.

These puppies are very small, similar to puppies. Wang Bo feels that he is in the Dwarf Kingdom, so why are everything smaller?

"Is this, Farabella Pony?" Peterson asked in surprise.

Wang Bo gave him a questioning look, and Peterson introduced: "Farabella is the smallest pony in the world, and she grows to 70 cm or even shorter when she becomes an adult."

"This horse is light and elegant in shape, smooth and silky skin, bright hair, gentle temperament, and can get along with children. It is called the most perfect pet in horses."

"There is no need for a horse farm to breed, but they are very expensive. Those who can breed them can afford it. When President John Kennedy visited Argentina in 1963, the most precious gift he received was a pure-blooded Farabella pony."
