As we all know, pigeon racing is not only related to the geographical environment, temperature difference of air temperature, atmospheric pressure difference, oxygen partial pressure difference, magnetic field strength, humidity and other aspects of the racing line, but also related to feeding management, training and release, strains, pairing and feeding conditions. Therefore, the combination of race line, weather, feeding, training, feeding and breeding determines the rate and speed of the pigeons.
1. Plain area: The racing line is dominated by the plain area of the racing pigeon to create a high probability of excellent results, such as: Beijing to the south, Shanghai to the northwest, Shenyang to the southwest, Belgium to Barcelona (within 1,000 kilometers). And Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, Jinan and other places although the pigeon breeding time is relatively early, but the results always can't catch up with the brother provinces, why?
1. The plain racing pigeons do not need to climb high, around the peaks, saving the flight time from the flight route, and the second is that there is no obstacle in the transmission range when the magnetic field is propagated, it will increase or decrease regularly, and the pigeon has adapted to its law when it is trained. Therefore, in the middle and long distances, with a tailwind, you will achieve outstanding results. Some people say that the pigeons in the region are good, but I say that this is unfair, and as you can see from the national One Loft Races, the previous point is not right.
2. Mountainous and hilly areas: The racing line is dominated by mountainous areas, hills and deserts, and the flight performance and homing rate have not been high for many years, which is caused by the great impact of the difficulty of the racing line on the pigeons. First of all, it is impossible to fly in a "straight line" in mountainous and hilly areas, so the race distance is 500 kilometers, and the actual flight far exceeds this value;
Secondly, the magnetic field is transmitted by charged ions, because the magnetic field on the way home of the pigeon diffraction on the back of the mountain and low-lying areas, resulting in the superposition of the magnetic field in some areas of the region, and the weakening of the magnetic field to zero in some places, which causes a judgment obstacle to the homing of the pigeon, which is very different from the uniform decrease and increase of the magnetic field in the plain area.
In addition, the difficulty of pigeon homing in the iron ore distribution area is also similar to the magnetic field diffraction, now some mobile phones can not receive the signal in a certain area is the magnetic field diffraction caused by the magnetic field enhancement in some areas, and the magnetic field peaks and valleys in some areas are superimposed on the peak to zero, resulting in the mobile phone in the latter case without signal, some people will say that this is the mobile phone transmitter does not cover the area, this is only one aspect.
In some areas, the situation is different when receiving mobile phones from the front and back of high-rise buildings, and the signal strength in the left and right ranges is also different between the front and back of the building, which is caused by diffraction. Of course, in the basement, the underground mall signal disappears, which is the result of the shielding effect of the building. In addition, the temperature difference between the mountain, the mountain, the front of the mountain, and the back of the mountain is large, and it is easy to form fog, which is composed of many water molecules, which has no transmission effect on the magnetic field, and obstructs the vision of the pigeons, which is also the reason for the low homing rate of the pigeons. As for the damage of eagles and birds of prey, they cannot be ignored, but they have little impact on the homing speed. Therefore, pigeon racing in the mountains is mainly the main reason for the slow homing and low homing rate caused by the special environment.
Second, the requirements of racing pigeons and breeding pigeons in the mountains are very different from the requirements of racing and breeding pigeons in the plains.
1. Body type: medium and small body type, well-proportioned, soft and elastic muscles, smooth transition between pubic bone and keel, pubic bone short and straight V-shaped, with 1 finger and half horizontal finger is better, the shorter the better.
2. The feathers should be soft, soft when the wings are pulled apart, and naturally retracted when they are released, grasped in the hand, and the hand is released to hold the pigeon in a balanced manner on the palm of the hand without moving, just looking left and right with the eyes.
3. A bunch of tail feathers or straight cylindrical shape, catch the loose tail immediately put away OK, the length of the flight distance of the pigeon, the position of the wings and the tail feathers, the same level of fast pigeon relative to the tail feathers wings are shorter.
4. The pupils are dark and bright and concave, with rhythmic contractions and regular shaking of the entire eyeball.
5. Inner line mouth: pigeons are mostly ringed or finely striped, and not rigid, jagged and so on.
6. Outside the line mouth: the front lower corner of the black wire, black line (that is, the distance line), generally wide and narrow or two colors to combine the flight better, to see the pigeon only look at the front swing angle area (that is, the pigeon area).
7. Most of the bottom sand is of medium thickness (that is, the line mouth and the bottom sand form an irregular city wall at the front swing angle), and a few are fluffy at the foot sand (the sign of a fast pigeon) and not rigid, with good density, and the bottom sand is like a dry cracked land that is not easy to return to the nest.
8. Face sand: the surface sand is relatively more and velvet or fine accounts for the vast majority of homing, velvet, bamboo roots, silk mesh surface sand accounts for the majority of homing pigeons, in a word: the surface sand is relatively thin when it is coarse, and it is dense and not dry when it is fine.
9. Empty sand: the empty sand composed of the bottom sand and the empty plate between the outer edge of the outer line mouth and the eye edge line, it is one of the necessary conditions for returning 500 kilometers to the mountainous area.
The breeder must have a complete and high-quality five laps (i.e. inner line mouth, outer line mouth, bottom sand, surface sand, empty sand).
1. Pupil: Like a deep well, dark and translucent, shining, and neat.
2. Inner line mouth: gear-shaped, rosary-shaped, wide circle-shaped, that is, weight and heavy quality, thick, colored, change is better.
3. Outer line mouth: After rotating 180 degrees at the forward swing angle of the pigeon, the breeding pigeon area (that is, the second half of the eye) presents a narrow front and wide back, and the shape of the area is better like the pigeon racing area of a good pigeon.
4. Bottom sand: thick and dense without plates, good air permeability is preferred.
5. Surface sand: velvet sand, moss sand, bamboo root sand are superior, and salty salt sand plays a role in improving the sand mold.
6. Empty sand: large but not, colored empty sand and multi-color are better.
To sum up, in order to improve the homing rate of mountain pigeons, first of all, the quality requirements of breeding pigeons are high, the selection should be reasonable, coupled with scientific breeding, and then close to more training, that is, intelligence + physique is not far from the goal.
