    The pigeons make their own nests. If it is caged, the owner needs to provide materials for the nest, such as dead branches, dead grass, rags, etc. The owner can also make a grass nest directly and provide it to the domestic pigeons.

    If it is free-range, it is also possible to provide them with material, and it will make its own nest. The place where the pigeons make their nests is generally not too far from home. Because pigeons are very homing creatures, they will make nests near their homes.

    The free-range pigeons will make their own nests, they will build their own nests with some dry straw, dry branches, weeds, and sometimes some chickens, ducks and geese feathers, gauze and so on in the nest. It is the habit of pigeons to build their own nests, and of course people can also help build them. It is recommended to add some fine sand and cotton wool to the nest to prevent the pigeon eggs from being crushed.

    Fine sand can absorb water, and cotton wool should be disinfected before use. The nest must be kept warm, dry and ventilated, and it needs to be cleaned regularly.

    1. How to make a pigeon nest.

    1) To make a simple pigeon nest, you first need to prepare some materials, including wheat straw, pliers, wire, scissors, long strips of cloth, etc.

    2) Grab a small handful of wheat straw, pick it up neatly, wrap it with a strip of cloth at the end of the end, wrap it around the whole body, leave the tail, and wrap it with the next handful of straw with a strip of cloth.

    3) After wrapping the two, according to this method, splice out about two meters of wheat straw, tie it tightly and coil a small part to form a disc shape. Then tie it tightly with wire to make a chassis.

    4) Wrap the remaining wheat straw into a nest shape, supplemented by iron wire to fix it. After rolling, use scissors to cut off the excess wheat straw.

    Second, what should I do if the pigeon does not enter the nest built by myself.

    1) The pigeon is very vigilant, and will not easily enter the nest for unfamiliar environments, in this case, they can be directly locked in the nest for a few days, so that it is familiar with the nest.

    2) If you don't get used to it, then it depends on whether your nest smells bad, or if it's uncomfortable, so that the pigeon doesn't like to live in it. If the nest is not good, it should be adjusted in time.

    3) If the pigeon is in the middle of the brooding period, try not to change the nest of the pigeon. Because the pigeon is the most sensitive during this period, once there are unfamiliar things around, it is possible for the pigeon to abandon the egg.

    The pigeon should be in two.

    Only then will the eggs begin to hatch. From the pigeon pairing zhi to the laying of eggs, after 10 days to 12 days. The first eggs are laid at 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.

    The next day, by 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on the third day, a second egg is laid. Pigeons usually lay 2 eggs.

    Pigeons lay 2 eggs in a litter, and after hatching, the two chicks often hatch more than one day apart. By the time the second chick broke, the first one had grown a lot. When the parent pigeon is fed, the larger pigeon always has to eat more, and for a long time, it will cause two chicks to be strong and one weak.

    Although this undesirable phenomenon does not often occur in brooding pigeons, in order to ensure that the young pigeons develop evenly, after the first eggs are laid by the parent pigeon, the fake eggs can be exchanged for real eggs, and the laying period and the ring number of the hen are written in pencil on the eggs for easy identification. One hour before laying the second egg, the first egg is placed back in the nest and the fake egg is removed.
