During the moulting / resting period

 

Step by step to breeding success!

During the moulting / resting period

Birds

  • Separate young and adult birds.
  • House in small groups and avoid overcrowding.
  • Preventative treatments
  • Control of airways and wet eyes.
  • Control of digestion (Megabacteria).
  • Provide bathing water.
  • Prepare for rest period or exhibition season.

Breeding Room

  • Climate control breeding room
    • Respect the natural shortening of daylight length
    • Avoid excessively high temperatures
    • Ensure proper ventilation
  • Reduce amount of soft food.
  • Switch to a seed mixture suitable for moulting and resting.
  • Maintain a strict hygiene.

Supplements

During this period, avoid heavy food and reduce the amount of soft food considerably. During moulting, a bird replaces its entire plumage which corresponds to about 15% of its body weight.
This requires sufficient building blocks.
