    The easiest way is to cut a round hole with a large bowl mouth in the lower right corner of a cardboard box, place it under the balcony or eaves, and take a wooden board from the bottom of the carton to use as a springboard for the pigeon to land and take off.

    If the pigeon is going to lay eggs, you can put some cotton wool or straw in the carton.

    The free-range pigeons start to fly freely at dawn every day, and then they are forced to fly for half an hour, sprinkled with a third of the day's food, which can control the pigeons. In the afternoon, the forced flight is nearly an hour, and the feeding method is to sit in the canopy or pigeon loft as much as possible, and feed by hand, so as to increase the affinity between the pigeon and the person.

    The pigeons are successfully paired in the pair cage. Why don't you find a nest after it is released", there are two reasons: 1. The pairing time in the pairing cage is short, the relationship is not really fixed, and there is the interference of the original match, so there is no nest to lay eggs for the time being; 2. The original nest of the was occupied, and the hen who had just been paired was not attentive, so the motivation defeated the pigeon that occupied the nest, so it was hesitant; 3. You put the two pigeons back into the monoculture cage to consolidate their feelings, and then when they are released, they will be able to catch the nest pigeon for two days.

    The pigeons usually lay eggs in 8-16 days after they are paired. But malnutrition.

    Or pigeons that are not in good health will be paired and mated and will not lay eggs.

    The will chase the egg three days before the hen lays the egg, the will always follow the hen and often peck the hen with his beak, even when the hen is drinking and eating, the will still drive the hen back to the nest. The will build a nest in the grass before the hen lays eggs.

    Prepare for incubation. The pigeons are usually paired to lay eggs in 8 to 16 days. However, pigeons that are malnourished or in poor health will not lay eggs after mating and mating.

    The owner needs to strengthen the nutrition of the pigeons entering the breeding period, and the food should not be too simple, which can prevent the pigeons from malnutrition and other problems, and can effectively improve the egg production rate of the pigeons.

    The will chase the egg three days before the hen lays the egg, the will always follow the hen and often peck the hen with his beak, even when the hen is drinking and eating, the will still drive the hen back to the nest. In this case, the is chasing the egg, which usually occurs three to five days after mating, when the fertilization of the fertilized egg in the hen's body is almost complete. The cocks build a nest in the grass before the hen lays eggs in preparation for the hatching.

    Generally, the will begin to return to the nest frequently two or three days before the hen lays eggs, and the hen will also appear to lie down for a long time at this time, except for drinking water and eating rarely will come out, at this time the egg breeding is not far away.

    Signs before the pigeon lays eggs: the hen lies on the nest for a long time, and if you look carefully for the first 2 or 3 days of laying eggs, you will find that the pigeon's tail is pressed down, and the feces become thicker, and the pubic bone is opened before the egg is laid, and the egg-like protrusion is about to lay the egg, no matter where the hen is in the pigeon loft, whether it is eating or drinking, the male always only follows the hen, and pecks the hen from time to time until the hen returns to her nest. It's called:

    Catch the eggs".

    About 18 days.

    1. After the pigeons are paired, they can lay eggs and hold the nest in about a week, but it takes 17 days and 20 days to hatch the little pigeons.

    2. After the hen lays eggs, the male and female pigeons take turns to incubate the eggs, the male pigeon enters the nest at 9 o'clock in the morning every day, and the hen goes out of the nest to forage for food and activities, and the hen enters the nest at 5 o'clock in the afternoon to hatch until 9 o'clock in the morning the next day, so the male and female alternate, day after day, until the hatching of the young pigeon.

    3. After the young pigeon hatches, the male and female pigeons secrete pigeon milk together, feed the young pigeons, the egg hatching period is generally about 17 days, beyond this time, the young pigeons have not yet hatched, the male and female pigeons will give up the old nest, and find a new nest to lay eggs and then hatch.

    4. Therefore, during production, if it is found that the hatching has not been hatched beyond the incubation period, the unhatched eggs should be taken out in time, so that the pigeon can lay eggs in time. The pigeon is a late adult bird, different from other birds, when the young pigeon just comes out of the shell, the eyes can not be opened, the body surface feathers, scarce, can not walk to eat, need to be fed by the parent pigeon, about 40 days can live independently.
