How about a fight between pearl birds?

Can white and flowered pearl birds be kept together? Why do you always fight?

My family has two pairs of pearl birds, one white and one flower, which are kept in cages. But sometimes people of different colors fight with each other. Why? When can they lay eggs? Eggs will be small, right? Thank you very much It is true that the eggs laid for the first time will be smaller, and you may have to peck each other with some light salt water. My budgerigar and the little pearl bird (female) are always fighting and pecking around. All my hair has fallen out. What's going on here? Budgerigar and pearl bird should not be put together.

Both kinds of birds can breed in cages. If they enter estrus, they will be more irritable, fight with unrelated birds and try to expel each other.

The newly matched pearl bird fights.

I bought two pairs of pearl birds, one gray and one white, which were originally peaceful. Although I hung up two nests, and all four were crowded into one nest, a white male bird died (diarrhea) soon, so I got another white male bird, but after I bought it, I was chased (cheated) by two other gray pearl birds every day. What should I do? No cage, okay? Will they know each other better?

It is necessary to separate cages! My old bird was fighting, too. I keep them separately, which is better! Let's see later, put them together, what's the reaction, friendship or fighting. If you still fight, you have to keep dividing! Now my little Pearl is very friendly! We will peck each other's necks and massage at night ~ ~ ~ Good luck.

Put the bird you just bought in another cage. Birds in two cages should be able to see each other. Put it together in a month. See if you can fight, and then continue to divide them. Some problems of pearl bird ~

There is a white female bird in my family now. There used to be a gray male bird, but later she died. It's been over half a year. She laid an egg recently, but it was not fertilized. It is said that August and September are the estrus of pearl birds. I want to find her a male bird as a companion. Is it possible? Now this one has been used to living alone for a long time. Will it fight with the new male bird? Because I really want them to have a baby, I wonder if this is appropriate?

Is there a ready-made bird's nest outside?

I'll wait online because I'm going to the bird market tomorrow, thank you ~

There is also a water bath. What should be used as a water tank and how much water should be put in it? No, because the male of the pearl bird is bigger than the female, unless you can buy a male bigger than your female. You can't put it in immediately after you buy it. You should separate the male from the female, but let them look at each other and cultivate their feelings.

Never buy a little male bird. If you buy it, you won't give birth to fertilized eggs. I used to do the same thing! ! !

You should use a ceramic water tank, which is available in the market, but it's expensive ... don't use iron or something like that. Breeding of pearl birds

I have a pair of pearl birds. Don't know why. I have been laying eggs since the beginning of February last year. A litter lays 6-7 eggs. Then it begins to hatch normally. I also know how to get rid of unqualified eggs. But I just can't feed the chickens successfully. Continue to lay eggs after all the chickens die. This cycle has lasted for more than half a year. I wonder if there is any way to help me solve the problems of feeding chickens and birth control?

Supplement to the question: That's not the question. Look at my question carefully. Adult birds in my family can't feed young birds.

The low survival rate of chicks is mainly due to unreasonable feed, and parents are frightened and can't feed chicks with peace of mind.

Although pearl birds can eat dry feed such as millet all the year round, feeding chicks with this feed is easy to cause malnutrition. You should give them cooked eggs mixed with millet (containing 2% salt) and vegetables when they start feeding their chickens, so that they are nutritious.

Don't change the position of the cage frequently when brooding (it is best to put it in a fixed position and don't move), and don't always look around and clean the cage. Add food and change water quickly and gently. How does Jinshan Pearl Bird take a bath?

1. Usually put a small dish in the cage, put water in it and let the birds wash it themselves. Some people put birds in a cage with a bright bottom, and then put the cage in a basin.

2. Be sure to master the water temperature when bathing birds. You can't use the water in the water pipe in winter, because it is too cold to the health of birds, so add some hot water, and the temperature should not exceed 30 degrees.

Don't bathe the bird with hot water. Because there is an oily substance on the surface of a bird's feather, it can keep warm. If you use hot water, it will be destroyed, which is very bad for birds

4. After washing in winter (the bird washes itself), you can't use a hair dryer, you should dry it naturally, and you will catch a cold when it is cold and hot.

My opinion on pearl bird breeding

Cage: Generally, if you keep a pair of pearl birds, you can use the cheapest wire cage on the market, about 15 yuan. If you want a certain visual beauty, you can also keep it in a square cage or sedan chair for canaries. Most people have a pair. If someone wants to breed vigorously, they can also raise a few pairs in a big box breeding cage. I don't think it's necessary to vigorously breed, because the price of pearl birds is basically close to that of ten sisters, and breeding is of little value, just to enjoy the joy brought by the success of breeding. If there are many, I suggest you build a small birdcage. But all the conditions are that the cage wire should not be too wide, so as to prevent the bird from escaping and the bird's head from being stuck.

Food: Pearl birds can survive by providing drinking water and millet. But I think since I bought a bird, I should be responsible for it and take good care of it. Generally, you should add green materials, such as vegetables, and soak them in water for a while to make the leaves more brittle and easier to be bitten by birds. I usually cut the leaves with scissors and put them on a plate so that they can be pecked more easily. It is beneficial to feed some rapeseed or perilla in winter and spring, especially when birds can lie down to lose weight. But don't feed too much to prevent fat birds from jumping and dying, which also affects the fertilization rate. Pearl birds are more afraid of blowing cold air. As soon as they blow air conditioning, they will get sick. So take precautions in sheltered places. If you still have canaries at home, you might as well feed some powder to the pearl bird as an auxiliary material. Generally, almost all wild animals have the habit of eating minerals, which is their physiological and metabolic needs. I add a very small amount of salt to drinking water about once a week. There is also calcium powder, which can be crushed egg shells or squid bone powder. Proper provision of sand can help them digest,

Equipment: For food, each food should be separated. The water feeder can be a small jar sold in a plastic bird shop. If a large water feeder is used, the pearl bird may go in for a bath and pollute the drinking water. The perch bar should not be too thick or too thin, and the bird's claw can cover 3/4 of the perch bar and is oval. The bird's nest is a pot-shaped nest. There are two kinds of hunger made of straw and hemp in the market. Usually, the straw is bigger to prevent birds from falling out of their nests. Moreover, the bird's nest should be hung on the top of the cage, otherwise the pearl bird likes to stop and shit on the bird's nest, which is unsanitary and affects the appearance.

Choose birds: Whether you are watching or breeding, you should choose the largest one in the aviary, because the largest one is probably the earliest hatched and the healthiest one in the same nest. At the same time, you should also see whether the bird is flexible and energetic. Generally, the brighter the feather color, the redder the mouth and feet, indicating that it is more male. Pearl bird male bird's mouth is much redder than female bird's, gray male and gray female can tell at a glance, but albino bird is more troublesome, so you should buy it in a reputable bird shop. I once raised a couple of albinos, two females, who laid nine eggs every week. If the two birds you choose are in the same nest, the possibility of hatching birds is relatively small, while the possibility of entering a nest of pearl birds in a general bird shop is relatively high, so I suggest buying two birds in different stores.

Feeding: Pearl birds can drink water without much care as long as they provide bird food. But we should pay attention to prevent the interruption of bird food. In this case, the pearl bird is life-threatening, because it is small and contains little energy. It's good to sunbathe pearls in the sun, but it's definitely not that kind of sunbathing. Pearl birds also like to take a bath. Usually give them a bath at noon every two or three days. Pearls that have just been bathed may droop because their feathers are wet. From my personal experience in raising birds, it is often the healthiest bird that dries quickly.

Reproduction: Pearl birds mature sexually after three months of birth. Pearl birds should be the easiest to breed except ten sisters. If there is no accident, you can enter estrus in a week, but some of them are really uncomfortable. For example, I have a pair that takes a month to get into shape. As long as they are fed with eggs, rice and green fodder, it should not be a problem to breed in a quiet place. When you see feathers in the bird's nest, you can divide the clean sun-dried cotton into small pieces and stuff them between the cage wires. The male will put them in the cage, tread the cotton flat and stuff it into the gap of the nest, and then the female will lay eggs. Don't influence them in the meantime. After giving birth to about 4-7 stepmother birds, they began to hatch. The incubation period is about 2 weeks after the last egg is born, which may be one or two days earlier or two or three days later, depending on the weather and the motherhood of the mother bird. Don't disturb the parent birds during the incubation period, otherwise it will affect the hatching rate. After the birds hatch, they should be fed fresh and cooked egg yolks and vegetables every day, and the female and male birds should feed them through their mouths. It is easy to deteriorate in summer, so keep it fresh. When the bird approaches the nest, the parent bird may have started the next round of breeding, so the parent bird will peck the bird and drive it out of the nest to prevent them from sleeping. At this time, another nest should be hung in the cage, so that the parent birds and birds will not conflict. If several pairs of parent birds are kept in a large breeding cage, when the birds leave the nest, several straw stacks should be set at the bottom of the cage to hide the birds in the middle to prevent them from being bullied by other parent birds.

These are my (purely personal) views and feelings about raising pearl birds. Please point out anything inappropriate.

What's wrong with the male pearl bird exploding?

All the hatched pearl birds are dead, and I don't know why. The hair on the male pearl bird is fluffy. What happened?

There are many reasons for this. Theoretically, they are collectively called the main reasons for pecking feathers: 1. Lack of amino acids, salt, calcium, phosphorus and vitamins in daily feed; Second, the cage culture density is too high, and the ventilation condition is poor. There are more caged birds suffering from this disease and fewer caged birds. Third, the light is too strong, the temperature is too high, and the activity is insufficient; 4. Infection by ectoparasites such as mites; 5. There is insufficient nesting material during breeding, so parents can peck their own feathers or chicks to fill it. Prevention and treatment of pecking disease: first of all, we should pay attention to the wide and clean cage, isolate young birds from their parents as soon as possible, and reduce the density; Adjust the feed in a targeted way, and increase various vitamins such as sulfur-containing protein, trace elements and egg yolk; Appropriate amount of natural gypsum (including calcium sulfide), shell powder, bone powder, green feed, feather powder, etc. Feather powder is not easy to digest and absorb, so it must be boiled in water and mixed with feed before feeding. Regular disinfection and spraying to drive out ectoparasites. For birds suffering from pecking feathers, we can use an electric soldering iron to break their beaks, but be careful not to overdo it, and pecking addiction will soon stop. Fill the jar at any time afterwards, otherwise the bird will refuse to eat because of its beak pain when pecking.

Hehe, I hope I can help you.
