👉Application
The enclosure should be equipped with a cage kit, a place to feed, a feeding area, a drinking-place and a medicinal herb.
👉The Seed Preparation
For the production of egg consumption, you should select quail seeds with the type of healthy female and free of disease
Production of quail meat, select quail male seedlings and quail layer afkiran
For the production of hatching and breeding eggs, select the good female quail seeds egg production and select a healthy male quail and ready to fertilize the female quail in order to guarantee a good hatching egg
Maintenance
Sanitation and Disease Prevention
To prevent the occurrence of disease during quail cultivation, cleanliness of cages and vaccines for quails should be done as early as possible.
👉Control of Illness
Control of the disease should be done at any time and if visible signs of unhealthy in the quail should be treated immediately.
👉Pemberian Feed
Feed for quail there are several forms, namely the form of pallets, crumbs and flour. Feeding is given twice daily in the morning and afternoon. For adult quail feed is given once a day in the morning. Drinking water is given continuously.
☝Natural Nusantara produces special livestock supplements namely VITERNA Plus and POC NASA. These products contain amino acids, vitamins and minerals created by the physiological approach of the quail's body by examining the various nutrients needed by the quail.
👉VITERNA Plus and NASA POC:
Essential amino acids such as hiistidin, arginine, isoleucine, leucine and others that serves as a compound of body proteins, forming cells and organ forming.
A complete vitamin that serves to improve the body's resistance from disease attacks.
Minerals include N, P, K, Ca, Mg, CI and others that serve as bone and blood constituents and play a role in the synthesis of enzymes to facilitate the body's metabolic processes.
☝How to use VITERNA Plus and POC NASA:
👉Mix VITERNA Plus and POC NASA into one container (bottle)
Then mix into the livestock drinking water with a dose of 1 bottle of VITERNA and NASA POC plus 10 liters of water. given every 3 days in the morning
Drinking water provided is not restricted, if it is discharged immediately replenished
👉The benefits of VITERNA Plus and POC NASA:
Made from natural or organic materials, not from chemicals or synthetics
Can replace vitamins and chemical minerals
To increase the livestock appetite
Reduce stress on farm animals
Reduce the smell of sewage cultivation
Can improve the health of quails
Speed up the first time to spawn
Reduce death rate
The eggshell is stronger and does not break easily
Provision of Vaccines and Drugs
When the quail is 4-7 days old, start the vaccine with a half dose of the chicken dose. Vaccines can be given through eye drops or drinking water. Drugs are promptly given if symptoms of quail show pain with the help of instructions from PPL or from the farm shop.

Snoring, for this disease can be treated with antibiotics Spiramycin.
Harvest
Main Results
In the maintenance of quail laying, the main result is the production of eggs. Eggs can be harvested every day during the production period.
☝Added Out

👉To avoid a variety of diseases in farm animals is to improve health. Cage sanitation should always be kept clean and provide adequate nutrition for livestock, if already exposed to the disease immediately do the treatment.
Similarly, about how to breed NASA's QU technology, hopefully through the knowledge and steps in the cultivation of quails can provide maximum benefits for the breeders.
