How to call the pigeons to return home quickly, and how to manage the pigeons after they have been r

There are many experts in training and releasing carrier pigeons in our country. Here is the report of a pigeon owner who flew 1008km in just 11 hours and arrived home on the same day.

The pedigree plays a decisive role in the homing of the pigeon, and the speed is mainly due to the usual training. In training, I fly early, fly more, fly repeatedly, and take off when the youngsters are not more than 25 days old and the yellow hair has not yet returned. Later I compared two youngsters, one early and one late, and three or four months later when they were released, the early youngsters were much faster than the late ones.

The training of the pigeon is not only a physical exercise, but also an exercise of will. I open the shed twice a day, fly for 1 and a half hours each time, and force training, rain or shine. In release training, I started at 30 km and went all the way to 400 km.

Each section should be repeated several times. I found that they arrive home faster and faster each time. Under the same climatic conditions, the first time it is 400 kilometers, it takes 7 or 8 hours to fly, the second time it is also 400 kilometers, it is reduced to 6 hours, and when it is released for the third and fourth time, it is generally less than 4 hours to come back.

This method of repeated release has to be put to 1,000 kilometers. 40% of my pigeons that have raced 1,000 km have already been released once or more in the 1,000 km. Flying faster and faster every time.

In the release, I also use the method of flying together first and then releasing the single feathers. The first time a basket of pigeons flew together, and the second time three or four pigeons were released in batches. After the third time, it will be released as a single feather, the first feather will fly up, and the second feather will be released when the shadow is gone, and the third feather will ......so that they can overcome dependence and cultivate independent combat capability, which is also the need of actual combat" ("Chinese Pigeon", No. 2).

This is to train the conditioned reflex of the carrier pigeon, such as flying in the morning, when it is about to fall, choose a sound, and then feed. After a long time, as soon as this sound appears, the carrier pigeon can quickly return home.

First of all, it is necessary to have a good pedigree, secondly, to train the speed of the pigeons in the loft when they fly at home, and thirdly, it is important to train the short distance before the race. Fourth, do a good job in epidemic prevention.

The long-distance arrival of a pigeon depends on three things:

1. The magnetic field identifies the homing stage.

2. In the middle of the blind zone of the magnetic field, the memory homing stage.

3. Vision and hearing recognition and homing stage.

In other words, the place of release and the destination are divided into three sections, and the pigeon finds its home by the above three steps.

1 Because the magnetic field is different in each region of the earth, so the pigeon is the reason for the magnetic declination to find a home, 2When it is closer to home, the magnetic declination will be reduced, so that the pigeon can not find its way home by the magnetic declination, and the pigeon can only rely on the previous memory, relying on the sun's rays, as well as the trend of the mountains and rivers, as a reference, to find the way home.

3.The pigeon's eyesight and hearing are very good, and when the pigeon flies out of the blind spot of the magnetic field, it is already very close to home, at this time, he can see some things he saw when he was a child, such as some tall buildings, etc., and can also hear some sounds, such as the chirping sound of the same group of pigeons, so the pigeon will rely on his vision and hearing to return home smoothly.

However, if one of these three parts goes wrong, it will be difficult for the pigeons to return home.

For example, the landlord said that a small magnet is tied, which will interfere with the identification of the magnetic declination of the pigeon, so the pigeon can not return normally, but it is not absolutely impossible to return home, there are also many pigeon that have been super trained and have a super memory, you can return to the nest just by virtue of sight and hearing, memory.

First of all, let me let you know the training distance of each station

First stop: km.

Second stop: km.

Third stop: km.

Fourth stop: km.

Fifth stop: km.

From the first to the third stop, I first look at the state of the pigeons, teach them to enter the shed as soon as they arrive home, and generally do not need to carry out health conditioning, but let them take a good bath on the second day of return.

After the fourth station of training and release home, on the night of the return of the salmon net two seeds, the next day at noon to feed another one, in order to because of the long distance, to prevent the pigeon stress caused by Salmonella outbreak in the intestine and cause green loose stools, directly affect the next station of training and release. On the third day, the pigeons are given electrolytes in order to regulate the physical fitness of the pigeons, to remove the drugs they have taken in the previous two days from their bodies, and to put lice in the water in which the pigeons are bathed to get rid of the lice.

After the fifth training flight or the preliminaries, you can repeat the practice of the fourth station, but you should start taking the breath on the fourth day, and use it for three consecutive days Because the fog and dust in the air will affect the respiratory tract of the pigeons, after so many training stations, the pigeons will inevitably have respiratory tract blockage. This is a normal phenomenon, so I think it is necessary to clean up or prevent respiratory infections at this time. The next stop is the kilometre final, and who wants the pigeon to drop the chain at a crucial time?

On the morning of the final basket, I put a hatchery in the nest box of the paired pigeons, and you will see that the pigeons are very happy, and then you can basket the pigeons, which will also regulate the pigeon's desire to return home

After the final home, I will keep the pigeon in its own nest box, there will be plenty of glucose water in the nest box, let him rest until the evening, and then give him a third of the full clear feed, the next day you can repeat the method of the fifth station, and at the same time observe the state, if there is the next stop, you should choose which one to keep and which to keep, you must have a good idea, you can't waste the pigeon aimlessly.

In fact, I am personally very opposed to giving pigeons medicine, but the reality has made me lose a lot of pigeons, pigeon disease is not to be cured but to prevent, because the pigeon is really sick, and then it is too late to treat, the disease will directly affect the pigeon race, so I personally take the prevention as the attack. The above methods are the basis of disease prevention, and there are no hormonal drugs.

This is similar to how to quickly get rid of the fatigue of a pigeon returning from a copy race1The pigeons just came back to give them a rest, no problem before feeding the electrolytes of three sugars and 1 salt, and only after the spirit is good to start feeding a lighter feed, afraid that it will be difficult to digest can be soaked in water for a few hours.

2.The loft tosses the dark spots so that they can rest.

3.Give them a hot bath if you can;

4.If you have time, you can also give them a massage of the muscles and head;

5.Difficult races, or long-distance races, the first 2 days after returning to the nest are fed light, digestible feed, and only add some corn when the spirit is restored, so as to quickly replenish physical energy;

6.Lactic acid from the body after the race: chlorzoxazone: soaked in water and drunk on the night after returning home, each tablet can be mixed with three catties of water for 20 pigeons a day. It can be used until noon the next day, no need to use more.

7.Restorative: Adenosine triphosphate disodium sodium.
