1, farm construction
Choose a quiet, convenient transportation, well ventilated, dry and sunny place to build a pigeon house. Pigeonhouses should have certain activity space and be surrounded. There should be wooden sticks for pigeons to stand in the pigeon house, and the equipment for drinking and feeding should be complete.
Step 2 choose breeding pigeons
Pigeons with strong immunity, strong resistance and strong reproduction are selected as breeding pigeons. Breeding pigeons should be able to breed at least 6 pairs of pigeons every year. In the process of feeding, we should pay attention to making records and then screening, and eliminate those that are not suitable in time.
Step 3 feed daily
Pigeons are mainly fed with miscellaneous grains, such as wheat, buckwheat, sorghum, corn, peas, mung beans and pockmarked seeds. Different growth stages and seasons should be fed accordingly. The temperature is low in winter, and pigeons consume more calories. Energy feed should be appropriately increased in feed, and the crude protein content should be increased compared with other seasons.
4. Drinking water is important
Piggery should change water frequently, and the water quality is easy to cause chlamydia and trichomonas flooding. It is generally recommended to change water every day. Drinking fountains and utensils for holding feed should also be kept clean and disinfected frequently.
5. Hygiene and cleanliness
The pigsty should be cleaned in time. You can put cardboard and sawdust on the ground, or sprinkle ash and tobacco. Usually, it needs to be cleaned every two days. Pigeons are clean, so we should pay great attention to the cleanliness and hygiene of pigeons. We should take a bath at least twice a week in summer and autumn and once a day in winter.
6. Disease prevention
Check more, see how the pigeons are doing, and let the pigeons bask in the sun often. Carefully observe whether mental state, eating and drinking water, breathing and defecation are normal. Once the abnormality is found, the sick pigeon should be isolated in time and corresponding measures should be taken.
