Feeding and management of overwintering breeding thrush

The feeding tube of thrush overwintering: before winter every year, most thrushes are replaced with new feathers, which is of great significance to the overwintering of thrushes. In winter, the weather is cold, the temperature of the environment is very important to the thrush, the water bath of the thrush must not be forced, walking the bird can also be temporarily stopped. It is observed that the body temperature of birds is generally 38 ℃, and the suitable temperature is generally more than 10 ℃. Below 10e, the metabolism of thrushes will be affected, mainly for general discomfort, do not like activities, do not like to eat, do not like to whine, let alone fight. Birds below 0E will freeze to death. The thrush belongs to the resident bird in the south of China, which is not cold-resistant, and the suitable environmental temperature for breeding should be above 10 ℃. In winter in the north, thrushes can only be kept indoors in winter.

In the process of overwintering feeding, except that the thrush can be lifted to the outdoor sun at noon on a warmer sunny day to breathe through the air, walking birds and singing are generally not recommended. Thrushes in the indoor winter should also be more careful care, bird cage hanging position should also prevent the harm of the wind, home air pollution and indoor fire caused by carbon dioxide damage and so on. The diet of overwintering thrushes can increase the proportion of fatty feed, generally up to 20%. Of course, protein feed, insect feed and vitamins have to be increased at the same time. In a sense, the subcutaneous fat of thrush is the warehouse of heat energy and the best thermal insulation layer for cold resistance, so increasing fat is of great significance to the overwintering of thrush. In addition, it should be noted that when moving thrushes indoors in winter, if there are multiple thrushes, they should avoid meeting and disturbing each other as far as possible. If placed in the same room, the cage clothing should be put down to block it. Because there are some fierce and aggressive thrushes, when they see other male birds, they will be very excited and excited, often dashing about in the cage, jumping and fluttering, vibrating, easily causing birds to be maimed, or afraid of each other and in a state of uneasiness. Dare not cry all day long.
