Indigo chin feeding method, how to raise red indigo chin

China has a long history of raising red dotted chin, and there are also very particular point chin cages. The feed is different in the north and south regions, but it is generally used as the main feed of mung bean flour, egg yolk, river shrimp powder, etc., and often gives some fresh beef and mutton, flour worms or corn borer larvae.

Newly raised chin is often frightened and does not eat. In order to prevent cage collision and damage to feathers, reduce physical exertion and maintain stability, "bundling" is required. It is to cross the outermost 4 5 flight feathers of the bird's two wings around the waist and tie them with cotton thread.

If you find that the bird is still unstable and grabs the cage and wipes the tail, you need to tie the whole tip of the feather and spray the back with a little water to calm the bird.

After the bundled birds are placed in the cage, the cage is covered and placed in a quiet place to "recognize the food". Put a thin paste of chin powder in the food jar, put a few more worms, and remove the water jar. Let the birds eat the worms in the food jar when they are hungry, and the flour porridge in the diet jar when they are thirsty.

If you find that the insects and thin food in the cage have been eaten cleanly, add new food, usually once every 2 hours. If you persist in this way for three or four days, the birds will recognize the food. Then open the hood, hang it on a high place, and gradually increase the concentration of porridge-like food, and when the red dotted chin can eat the dry powder, then put it into the water jar and food jar, add powder and water respectively, and reduce the amount of insect feeding.

The food and water of the red dotted chin should be kept clean and replaced every day. The cloth pad at the bottom of the cage must be brushed, dried, and replaced frequently so as not to contaminate the bird's toes due to the corrosive nature of the droppings. Red dotted chin likes water baths, so bath water should be provided frequently, and new drinking water should be replaced after bathing.

In winter, when the room temperature reaches 15 or more, bath water can also be provided. Remember to prevent the wind from blowing colds after bathing.

The moulting period is a critical period for raising red-spotted chins, and uneven moulting or not shedding feathers not only affects the appearance and song, but also may cause the death of the bird. Therefore, during this period, special attention should be paid to giving more live food and other animal feed. Let the birds get some fresh air or get out into the grass every morning to get the dew.

Make sure to bathe in enough sun, and some people put the moulting birds into a cage covered with grass to raise them, so that the changed feathers are shiny and beautiful.

He is very good at imitating the chirping of birds such as birds in the sky. The red-spotted chin is an insectivorous bird that mainly eats insects of the order Orthoptera, Hemiptera, and Hymenoptera. It is difficult to cage and die, if you don't change food properly.

The general life cycle of the red spotted chin is about 7 years, the life span of the indigo chin in the cage is slightly shorter, and the adult and young birds can be raised, but it is better to raise the young birds in the autumn of the year, which is easy to lay in the cage and easy to scream in the spring of the next year.

Put the bird in a darker cage first, and don't look at it too much.

2. The environment in which the house is raised.

Diets and cages should be kept clean, and feed should be kept changing daily. The cage bottom plastic plate should be brushed, dried, and replaced frequently to avoid soiling the indigo's toes due to the corrosive nature of the droppings.
