Preparation for breeding: building the foundations for success
The status of the pigeon before breeding directly determines the quality of the pigeon. We must ensure that pigeons peak in the last weeks before breeding, because only fully prepared pigeons can hope to produce high-quality pigeons. Those doves that are temporarily paired are hard to produce。
In addition to the necessary sanitation measures, the transition to feed is critical. Over a period of two to three weeks, the transition from low-protein feed to protein-rich mixed feed will provide adequate nutritional support for pigeon breeding。
Feeding ratio: science mix nutrition
The winter dove feed is dominated by carbohydrated grains such as barley, wheat, sorghum and maize. After months of rest and clean breeding, the proportion of protein-containing feed needs to be gradually increased. Increasing the percentage of protein-bearing feeds such as peas, beans and wild peas to 30 per cent, and high protein nutrition not only stimulates the operation of the organs of pigeons but also enhances their sexual appetite. In addition, feed additives and amino acid formulations containing animal protein can be appropriately added to further optimize the nutrient structure of feed。
Iii. Vitamins and minerals: comprehensive supply support
In winter pigeons rely only on trace vitamins to maintain their body function, at a time when substantial vitamin supplementation is required. The demand for vitamins is particularly high because of the heavy physical burden of pigeons during breeding, competition, exchange of feathers, treatment, etc. By supplementing vitamins and vitamins ad3e over time, pigeons quickly reach their desired state and maintain good nutrition levels. The addition of appropriate amounts of pure vitamin e formulations or wheat embryos with vitamin e to feed contributes to the development of the embryo。
Wild and edible plant-based products, although vitamins, often fail to meet the demand of pigeons for all essential vitamins, or have lower levels. Therefore, vitamin supplementation at the right dose is key to meeting full vitamin nutrition requirements。
Vitamin maintenance in the first week or two before breeding is very useful. Vitamin ad3e supplements are added on the first day and on the fifth day of vitamin maintenance (all vitamins) and on the fourth day and on the sixth and eighth days. The mixing of vitamins in feed ensures their balanced and rapid absorption. It should be noted that oil soluble vitamins can only be placed in feed and, if used for drinking water, can contaminate drinking water and transmit pathogens. Vitamins are best placed in early morning feed and are successfully converted in the body with sunlight. Combining one third of the early-morning feed into the required doses of vitamins, covering each grain with a wet membrane, and mixing some of the calcium feed accelerates the drying process, but not with light and heat, as vitamins are sensitive to light and temperature。
At the same time, there is a need to prepare for the preparation phase sufficient coarse sands, health sands, pigeon slags and mineral mixtures for pigeons. If sufficient minerals are not available until the small dove is born, the dove may be depleted by sudden over-ingestion。
Iv. Hole steps: equipment
When prepared for the first steps, healthy pigeons receive high-quality maternal eggs. When carrying the nest, there is a need to properly reduce the protein content of the feed and to control the feeding of the feed in order to prevent the obese of the pigeons holding the nest。
During the first hugging, the pitting of a caterpillar is an essential step. When all the pigeons with the pairs begin to hold their nests, it is the best time to hit the caterpillar. This will ensure that older pigeons are immunized against pigeons when they breastfeed, and the need for this measure has been emphasized by specialized faith hospitals and research institutes. For the treatment of caterpillars, drinking water can be treated with a dose of two to six days with a dose, as well as with tablets for the treatment of pigeons, with a pharmaceutical formulation containing dimethyl nitro and ronidazol and with metronidazol。
Since all drugs are “vitamin dependent”, multiple vitamins need to be added after the first tripod treatment. In the case of pigeons of herbs who are particularly vulnerable to caterpillars, it is necessary to repeat the use of caterpillars when hugging a third nest。
V. Caring of young pigeons: attention to growth needs
The first few days after the birth of the dove are fed by milk from the old dove, which is a cell secretion rich in high nutritional fat and protein. On the fifth to eighth days, the pigeons gradually transition to cereals for food。
The pigeons require a large amount of protein at a rapid stage of development to complete the growth of skeletons, muscles and feathers. Combination of 30 - 35% of the better bean bean content (peas, beans, wild peas) can meet the growth needs of pigeons, but the presence of amino acid formulations, animal proteins or yeasts containing animal proteins can be more conducive to the growth of young pigeons because they have better amino acid combinations。
The development of the larvae skeleton during the first three weeks is a large-scale metabolic process, consisting mainly of minerals and also of trace elements, so that the supply of minerals and trace elements must be guaranteed. Food packs containing minerals should be kept clean daily, especially in wet weather conditions, to prevent the water intake of various mineral salts, the dust and faeces in the pigeon sheds and the transmission of pigeon disease。
Regular feeding of vegetable oils is also necessary, and all vegetable oils contain a high share of the fatty acid essential for life, which is better when they are evenly mixed with trace elements in feed。
In the early weeks of weaning, the young pigeons are at a high stage of physical development, and mixed pigeon feed should remain protein-rich, with high demand for minerals, trace elements and vitamins. Since the immune system in the pigeons is not yet fully established, they are very sensitive to infectious diseases, and therefore sanitation in the pigeons is carefully carried out. Overcrowding and poor ventilation often contribute to the spread of infectious diseases among young pigeons。
Health management: creating a healthy environment
As dove food increases, so does defecation. Doves leave their nest empty their stomachs and excrete a large amount of snotty faeces. At this point, the number of excreta cleanings is increased, as the ammonia generated by the decomposition of excrement overstretches the capacity of the pigeons. Moreover, as a result of the birth of pigeons, the pigeon sheds become more crowded, requiring in particular large quantities of oxygen-rich air. Special attention should be paid to ensuring that there is sufficient fresh air to enter the shed to prevent respiratory diseases, such as wind and fungi infections。
Even the most thorough cleaning of the dove cannot eliminate the pathogens, and it is recommended that the doves be sterilized before and after the encapsulation procedure。
The breeding of pigeons in accordance with the above measures provides a solid foundation for successful breeding. But that does not mean that day-to-day eye-to-eye work can be saved, and that many successful pigeon friends begin to select jobs during their incubation, which is not useless, but rather aimed at sifting out better-quality pigeons to breathe new life into the development of the dove business。
