How to protect the health of pigeons in winter.


1. Before winter, the temperature begins to drop, so you need to pay attention to the ventilation of the pigeon loft. The wind blows directly into the loft, the temperature in the loft is low, and some pigeons tend to catch cold while resting.


Therefore, it is very important to do the corresponding shielding. Ventilation is also necessary when the temperature is low, but the wind does not need to blow directly.


2. In winter, the temperature is low, and many pigeons are more likely to get sick. Such as adenovirus, enterovirus, etc.


Therefore, it can be considered to disinfect the loft once before winter, and the pigeons should also be vaccinated when appropriate.


3. Keeping pigeons requires patience. Love the pigeon and let it thrive.
