Pigeons will feed themselves 25 days after hatching. The first few times when they start feeding their young birds are to change the quality of their food. In order to make birds easy to absorb and adapt, the feed should be as thin as possible, so that they can be picked with bamboo sticks.

After feeding several times, you can see that the bird's feces began to thin and the water content also decreased. At this time, adjust the feed to the humidity that is easy to pick, feed it normally, insist on feeding it once every hour, pat the bird's nest with your hand, and the bird will open its mouth for food until it doesn't open its mouth.

It is also necessary to get a proper amount of sunshine every day, which will help to enhance the growth and quality of feathers. Improve feed nutrition in continuous rainy days, put birds in dry places to prevent freezing and wet injuries, and feed small fresh insects, such as breadworms, if possible.

Extended data:

Adult pigeons live on plant food. Corn, rice, wheat and sorghum in cereals, peas, mung beans, broad beans and miscellaneous beans in beans are all good feeds. Cereals can account for 2/3 and beans for 1/3.

Pigeons are large and consume a lot of feed. The feed consumption of homing pigeons and ornamental pigeons is about less than that of pigeons 1/3. According to their weight110, the daily feed consumption can be roughly calculated.

In addition, a pigeon needs to drink about 30 ~ 60 ml of water every day. Artificial incubation and feeding young pigeons with synthetic pigeon milk can improve the reproductive rate of breeding pigeons.
