How to raise pigeons in winter

First, strengthen the wind, cold and warmth of the pigeon house. It is freezing in winter in the north. The lower the temperature, the higher the heat consumed by pigeons to resist the cold.

Regarding the measures to strengthen the wind, cold and warmth of the pigeon house, the key point is to block the cold north wind. As far as the lowest temperature in winter in Beijing is concerned, pigeons are not afraid of cold, pigeons are afraid of wind, and pigeons are particularly afraid of cross-flow at night.

Second, strengthen the disease prevention of pigeons in winter, and the prevention of diseases such as Newcastle disease and salmonella in winter cannot be ignored. Clean drinking water, disinfect the pigeon house every week, and do epidemic prevention for young pigeons vaccinated with Newcastle disease vaccine for more than half a year.

Third, feed the pigeons twice a day and fly home twice a day. In addition, pigeons are not trained and breeding pigeons is not allowed. When pigeons fly, they don't bomb, rush or force, just let nature take its course.

Extended data:

Pigeons mainly feed on miscellaneous grains, such as wheat, buckwheat, sorghum, corn, peas, mung beans, pockmarked seeds and peanuts. At least two kinds of feed should be mixed when feeding.

Pigeons should be fed more corn and peas, first water, then water. You can feed glucose water first, then light salt water. In summer and during the incubation period of young pigeons, appropriate amount of salt can be added to drinking water.

Pigeons are very clean birds, so we must pay great attention to the cleanliness of the pigeon house. We should take a bath at least twice a week in summer and autumn and once a week in winter.
