Ten points for production breeding management

Production pigeons, also known as production pigeons, refer to pigeons that have been paired into production. How to raise and manage the production of pigeons is a big issue that affects the vital interests of the farmers. Therefore, the farmers should do the following ten points in the feeding and management process of producing pigeons.
One must establish a pigeon production file card. When farmers breed baskets of free (human) breeding pigeons, they must create a file card with the species, date of pairing, and observation records of the pigeons on the card for checking and recording.
Second, we must pay attention to daily inspections. First, in the first week of production, the breeders need to strengthen their observations. The proper pairing of the breeders can usually be 1-3 days. If the fight is still 3-5 days after pairing, the male and female should be considered. Mis-pairing, same-sex pairing or unwillingness of producing pigeons, etc., must be paired again. The second is to regularly check the health status of the pigeons on a daily basis and check the pigeon's movement, feeding, drinking, defecation and other conditions. Once an epidemic is discovered, it must be treated in isolation.
The third is to prepare the nest and other facilities. Shortly after mating, the hens will lay eggs, and the farmers should promptly prepare facilities such as nest bowls and nest nests so that the pigeons can hatch in the nest. The nest basin can be equipped with 1 cage and 2 nests, and the tubs can be made into bowls. And more cushions should be prepared for replacement.
Fourth, we must adjust the loft environment. Pigeons have high requirements for light, temperature and humidity. Breeders must observe and adjust the environment in the loft. It is necessary to fully ensure that the lofts are ventilated, dry, cold and cool, the environment is quiet and clean, and all kinds of stress reactions are avoided. The cages, nest basins and other culture facilities are thoroughly sterilized on a regular basis to ensure that the pigeons have a good life. surroundings.
Fifth, we must find the nanny pigeons in time. After the hens lay their eggs, they can use the nanny to breed on the occasion of illness in the case of male and female pigeons, or if they want to make more eggs for good breeders. There are no restrictions on the variety of nanny pigeons, as long as they are healthy, have hatching and brooding experience, have strong nesting ability, and are similar to the egg-laying period of the pro pigeons.
Sixth, regular inspections should be made. During the incubation period, fish farmers must regularly take eggs, and timely pick out lean, dead embryos, etc., so that hatching can be carried out, so that those eggless breeders can re-produce eggs, hatch, and ensure the production of pigeons. The population of herds has greatly increased.
Seventh, we must train the pro pigeons to feed milk. After the hatchlings get out of the shell, they must be carefully observed. Within 3-6 hours, if the pro-pigeon can't spit pigeon milk for the pigeons, check whether the pigeons are sick or not, and sick pigeons should be treated promptly. Some of the first-breeding pro-pigeons do not spit pigeon milk. Farmers should promptly discover and train in time. The pigeons can be successfully trained by repeatedly putting the pigeon's mouth into the mouth of the pro-pigeon.
Eighth, we must strengthen management of the moulting period. During the moths (1-2 months) during the late summer, early autumn and early fall season, the production of pigeons generally stops laying eggs or produces fewer eggs. During this period, the farmers will reduce the quality and quantity of the feed to stop the laying of the pigeons. They may stop for 1-2 days (for drinking water only), forcing the pigeons to moult quickly in the short term due to lack of nutrition. For the production of pigeons that can normally lay eggs, hatch and brood during the moulting period, continue to feed the full price diet.
Nine must boldly eliminate low-producing pigeons. Farmers must boldly eliminate production pigeons with low production performance during the production process. If it is found that the production of pigeons produces less eggs, often produce no eggs, poor nesting, small offspring individuals, and fewer than 10 chicks per year, etc., must be eliminated in time for better economic benefits.
Ten must record good breeding log. Farmers shall timely record the details of feed ingredients, quantities, purchased rations, feeding time, pigeons' activities, growth conditions, daily feeding and management, disinfection, and epidemic prevention treatment, etc., for inspection.
