The biggest advantage is that they don’t need to drink water. , only eat one meal a day in the evening, so the amount of waste is very small and clean.In particular, there are few diseases, no environmental pollution. the baby is easy to get sick,” Chinh shared.
The animal cage is also designed simply, can be built of concrete or use floor tiles attached together in size 60x60cm, airtight, low noise, not exposed to direct sunlight. Bats have the characteristic of preferring to be in low light, the more secluded the rearing area, the faster they grow.

The time to separate the cubs and pair the parents must be calculated accordingly. The selection of pairing also needs to be noted, males and females are not of the same bloodline, the quality and quantity of offspring are higher. On average, each year, the female herd gives birth to 3-4 litters, each litter 2-3 children. After nearly 2 years of working with the profession, Mr. Chinh increased the total herd from the original 100 to more than 500, of which more than 200 were mother’s.

For commercial pups, rearing time is 6-7 months, can reach weight. 1.2-1.8kg/head, selling for about 500,000 thousand VND/kg On average, every year, after deducting all expenses, I earn nearly 500 million VND. This is an achievement that I have never seen before. expected,” said Nguyen Gia Chinh.($1=25,000 VND)
Not only improving the family’s income, he also created jobs for 2 local workers with a salary of 6 million VND/person/month . Chinh also said that in the near future he will expand the scale of the farm, and is willing to share his experience of raising this animal with people.

Through evaluation, the model brings good efficiency, low investment cost, does not need a lot of area, does not pollute the environment, but the economic value is very high.
