Good for a deep gaze
Recently there are Tibetan friends left a message to sort out an article related to the "pigeon eye group", to be honest around 08 I also bought a fundus mirror, at first they took advantage of the night to smear into the pigeon loft to catch pigeons, or during the day the pigeons were caged and hidden in a small black room.
Maybe at that time, the number of pigeons that I saw was only too small, and second, I also believed more in the pigeon family with achievements and relied more on the external reference of the pigeon eye without the help of the instrument, it can be said that I was not good at learning the "pigeon eye group".
But relying on the memories of the good breeding pigeons "vision group" in my mind to match the following content, plus the two protégés who saw the author at the end of the article sent an article to endorse it.
So the following article can also be used as a reference for pigeon eye "vision group" enthusiasts to get started, the length is indeed too long, no time can be collected or look at the font bold part can be.
In today's era of rapid scientific and technological progress, the carrier pigeon industry is also constantly developing and growing. China's carrier pigeon associations have increased from a dozen to dozens, the membership has increased from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands, and the number of pigeons raised has increased from tens of thousands to tens of millions.
In every strong competition, every pigeon lover hopes that his pigeons will win in the race and hope to achieve a good position, which is a very normal mood, but the results after the race are often unsatisfactory.
Some people have pigeons that race year after year and there is always no return. If the breeding, breeding and training are done well, the bloodline is the super long-range famous blood and the previous ranking pigeons, but the pigeons that come out are not moving.
One generation, two generations, three generations, one year old, two years old and three years old are not OK, why is the reason? I was puzzled before, but then I used ophthalmoscopes and made selections of breeding pigeons, which achieved very good results.
If you want to see the pigeon's bottom, the nerve belt group must use the ophthalmoscope, please note that the nerve belt group is an organ of the carrier pigeon, especially growing in the eyes, it can not be ignored. The following is a little experience of my use of ophthalmoscopes.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" >1, beginner ophthalmoscopy</h1>
At the earliest, with the help of ophthalmologists, we used ophthalmoscopy to observe the bird's fundus, found that there are such bands and pigeon eyes, after dissection, we learned that the bird's eyes belong to the ctenophore type, bloodless retina, nutrition comes from the ctenophore, which plays a role in protecting the eyeball, adjusting blood flow, excreting waste, and maintaining intraocular pressure.
Because it is like a band, and the circle plays a role in feeding blood, we call it a nerve band here. (Nowadays called the arthritis or optic group)
In the past eight years, we have made a lot of observations and comparisons of the nerve bands of carrier pigeons, wild pigeons, meat pigeons and ornamental pigeons, and found that their nerve bands are very different. We won't explain them all here. Mainly talk about the pigeon fundus nerve band.
In order to deepen my understanding and expand my understanding and research on the neural bands of pigeons, I visited the lofts of hundreds of fanciers and inspected nearly 10,000 pigeons, breeders and award-winning fundus bands.
The pigeon lofts to watch are:
Ma Meisong, the runner-up winner of Wuhan in Beijing, also won the first 650 km championship in Chongwen District and the third place in the first Pigeon Cup in Chaoyang District. 1990 Chaoyang District Spring 700 km Champion.
Beijing premiered Nine winners of hengyang 1500 km zhu Entian.
Beijing premiered Guangzhou 2,000 km runner-up sun Yuhong.
Beijing Dry Kilometer Champion Fang Ming.
Li Ludong, the first 1200 km champion in Chaoyang District, won another 9 places in the 1,000 km Grand Prix in the autumn of 1992.
Xu Ruihai, the winner of the 250 km double pun in the spring of 1992 in Chaoyang District, won 13 places in the 500 km of Erguan, 5 places in the spring 500 km of Chongwen District in 1990, 10th place in the 700 km grand prix held in Chaoyang in the autumn of 1990, and 4 places in the first Workers' Sports Cup City 1000 km Grand Prix. Comrade Xu Ruihai only began to raise pigeons in 1989.
The Workers' Cup 1,000-kilometer Grand Prix won 2 pigeons against 2 pigeons and won 27th and 58th pigeons, Zhao Jiping.
Wang Qinghua, winner of 57th prize and more than 200 winners of the 1,000-p. 1,000 pigeons in the Workers' Cup 100-kilometer competition.
In the spring of 1993, two pigeons were released from the Beijing Locomotive 800 km race, and 21st and 30th prize winners were Ji Shixing.
Song Guorong, the third runner-up in the 1,000-kilometer beijing spring competition in 1988, also won a good place in the district 500 and 700 kilometers, and he had the breeding pigeons of Zhang Shunkui, the minister of China's competition department, and the offspring bred in 1993, under the very difficult circumstances of the spring thousand kilometers in Beijing, won a generation return.
Cui Shaohua, the 13 winners of the 1000 Asian Games Grand Prix of 10000 Asian Games in Beijing, and Li Qiuyan, won 17 winners.
Lei Jinliang of Xuanwu District won 4th place in the 910 km race in Beijing and 78th in the spring of 1993 in the 17,300 carrier pigeons in the 1,000 km race in Beijing.
In the autumn of 1992, he won the Beijing 1000 km Grand Prix in Lianjia, in the same year he won 5th place in the 500 km competition of the Dongcheng District Pigeon Club, 39th place in the first 1,000 km Grand Prix of the Workers' Sports Cup in the autumn of 1992, and 14th place in the 500 km group competition in Dongcheng in the spring of 1993.
Please pay attention to the above pigeon loft owners, most of them look at the eye mirror, in the pigeon loft of the fanciers also saw 3, 5, 6 and many pigeons of more than 2000 km imported from other places in the pigeon loft of Beijing Fanghengyang, and there are also many foreign pigeons.
There is also the 2,000 km Xining champion introduced in the author's shed, as well as its parents, the father is the runner-up of the 2,000 km Xining, the mother is the Sanmenxia champion and so on.
Through observation, we found that the fundus neural bands of good ranking and ultra-long-range homing pigeons have one thing in common, that is, the nerve bands are very developed, hypertrophied, and neat, and there are one to three longitudinal bright or dark lines on the bilateral middle bands, yellow lines, and the entire nerve bands are yellow, black or water-silver.
Under the observation of the ophthalmoscope, the nerve bands are constantly shaking and contracting rhythmically, and the biggest discovery is that the genetic characteristics of the hemorrhagic system can be seen from the nerve bands. A breed of carrier pigeon with nerve bands has something in common.
This plays a non-negligible role in our breeding, breeding and racing, which is beneficial to the development of China's pigeon industry and beneficial to the cultivation of pigeons, so we write it out and dedicate it to the majority of pigeon lovers, and also learn from the practice of pigeon breeding and pigeon breeding in the future.
We believe that in the process of artificial evolution of the carrier pigeon in the past hundred years, it has far exceeded people's understanding and research, and the mystery that the carrier pigeon can return from thousands of kilometers to the nest is different, and there is no convincing view until now.
We believe that no matter what we do, we must have confidence, do not lose confidence because of difficulties, especially a new thing and a new discovery of new arguments, new concepts, do not easily sentence it to death, we must stand up to difficulties, grope and sum up experience in practice, so that we can grasp and use it, let it contribute to the cause of the carrier pigeon in our country.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" >2, pigeon warp can only be added, can not be lost</h1>
When we select breeding pigeons, we not only look at the pedigree, but also look at the results of the pigeon breeding and the pigeon breeder's morality, but also pay attention to every organ and part of the pigeon.
We not only look at the five rings on the surface of the pigeon's eyes, but also look at the nerve bands under the eyes, we say that the pedigree and the race results plus the ophthalmos are like fish in the water, like a tiger adding wings.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" >3, the application and practice of ophthalmoscope in the author's studio</h1>
I have been breeding carrier pigeons for more than a decade, and my performance has been poor before using the oculoscope, from 1986 when the ophthalmos were added, and in the autumn of 1987 I won the overall 1st prize for the adult and young birds of the 521 km nord line.
At that time, 5,600 pigeons were raced, released at noon, and they had to fly over more than 300 kilometers of mountainous areas, and only 4 pigeons reported on the day.
In the same year, he also won 9th place in the nine northern provinces and cities of 500 km, and in the spring of 1989, he won the first prize, the second place, the 21st place and the 49th place in the 720 km pigeon race in the district.
Because the pigeon bell was not used at that time, and the author rode his bicycle to report again and again, there were 67 pigeons in the whole district that day.
The third prize was won in the autumn of '89 in the 500 km beijing adult pigeon race, when tens of thousands of carrier pigeons competed, and on the day of release there was always rain, and also won the fifth prize of young birds of the year in the city of 500 km, on the day of which only more than 100 pigeons were returned home.
In the same year, it also won the first city-wide Temple of Earth Cup Grand Prix, the first city-wide Temple of Heaven Cup 720 km, the second runner-up of the Grand Prix, the runner-up of the 720 km of Beijing, the runner-up of the 720 km of the 10 northern provinces and cities, and the fourth runner-up of the Jianguo Cup of 720 km.
In the spring of 1990, 29th prizes were placed in 720 km, and in the autumn, Chaoyang District held the city's 720 km competition and won 2 pigeons on the same day as 2 pigeons. In the spring of 1991, he won 182 prizes in the 10,000 pigeon races in Beijing against 4 pigeons in 10,000 kilometers, and in the autumn of 1991 he won another 1st prize in the 564 km race in the district, and in the autumn he won 163th place in the 1,000 kilometers of the district.
The above are some of the achievements made by the author in the case of not introducing breeding pigeons in ten years, using the ophthalmoscope to explore the genetic law of the nerve girdle, and selecting and matching according to this law.
< h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" >4, the performance of young pigeons selected with oculoscopes in other people's sheds</h1>
In 1992, I was unable to participate in the release due to the relocation, and before moving, I supported the fancier Ji Shixing with several young birds and a pair of eggs.
Six of the carrier pigeons were re-released twice for 500 km, and in the 800 km race held by the Beijing Locomotive Club in the spring of 1993, 3 pigeons were sent, because he did not expect to return on the same day, go to work, come home from work to see, 2 pigeons have eaten and drunk enough, resting in the room.
It was easy to call the next pigeon to report 14 on a bicycle, and when he came back, he called the next pigeon to report 18, and then won 21st and 30th because there was no special pigeon bell for the railway pigeon club.
He said afterwards that if he waited at home, it would be better to have a pigeon clock. The breeding pigeons supported By Cao Ruilin, in 1993, they took part in the 500 km spring northwest race in Chaoyang District, where they won 9th and 20th prizes on the day, when the pigeons were only three months old.
Please note that both of their good results were achieved due to busy work and no systematic training of pigeons.
< h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" >5, ophthalmososcope for others to select pigeons in the shed</h1>
In the autumn of 1991, when 564 kilometers of Xinxiang were released in the autumn district, Zhao Jiping and the author met, and one day he asked me to show him the pigeons in the eyeglass, and without asking about the blood source and not knowing the bloodline, he selected 3 pigeons from Xinxiang and said that there would be a good performance by letting go of a thousand kilometers.
Since then he has also learned to look at the eyeglasses, and later someone went to his shed to see the pigeons, and after reading it, he said that the whole shed should be killed.
He took care to keep a few of the pigeons I had said I had agreed upon. In the first 1000 km Grand Prix of the Workers' Sports Cup in Beijing in 1992, two pigeons returning from Xinxiang were released, and the result was a 100% homecoming rate. Won 27th and 58th places.
In the spring of 1993, when there were 17,300 carrier pigeons in Beijing in the spring of 1,000 kilometers, seven strands were missing to participate in the battle, and under bad weather, they won 391 places after half a month. Around 800 pigeons were returned during the one-month registration period.
The fancier Ji Shixing, before the release of thousands of kilometers in Beijing in the autumn of 1992, called me to his house and I showed him the pigeons in his shed.
Without knowing his pedigree, I selected 2 carrier pigeons for him, which competed in the city's 1,000 km race and won 104th and more than 300 pigeons, with a 100% homecoming rate.
This is nothing in the south, but it is not easy in Beijing. The parents of the above two fanciers, the pigeons of the 1,000-kilometer homecoming pigeons, were both birds of the sky and the ringless pigeons bought in the pigeon market.
There is also the fancier Wang Qinghua, who put 2 pigeons in the first 1000 km competition of the Workers' Sports Cup and returned 2 pigeons, and the good results of 57th and more than 300 were also seen before the race.
Before Cui Shaohua put a thousand kilometers in Beijing in the autumn of 1992, someone looked at his pigeon and said that it was not enough to put a thousand kilometers. After reading the ophthalmoscope, I said that 2 pigeons would be able to return home without accidents, and 1 pigeon would have a fight if the body recovered well, just at the same time as the thousand kilometers were handed over, the pigeon loft and the west room were demolished, and 3 pigeons returned during the registration period, and Shaohua himself also looked at the ophthalmoscope.
There are many more facts above, and I will not talk about them here, but the above facts are enough to see the benefits of using ophthalmoscopes.
You may wish to try it too, the above is the author has written after years of discussion with the majority of fanciers in practice, I hope to the majority of pigeon lovers, in the future breeding, racing to learn from. If there is any mistake, please correct it from the fanciers.
Zhang Hongbin's "nerve belt group" said that it blossomed in Yinchuan
Wen | Gao Fengping Chen Weidong
On November 15, 1994, with the help of the magazine, we quickly learned the address of Zhang Hongbin, the author of "Don't Ignore the "Nerve Belt" under the eyes of the carrier pigeon".
In order to increase our knowledge of training carrier pigeons, we traveled thousands of miles to Beijing to learn from Zhang Hongbin fanciers and learn the experience of observing carrier pigeons with eye mirrors.
After introducing ourselves and explaining our intentions, we were warmly received by Fancier Zhang Hongbin, and we were also received by Beijing fanciers Ma Liguo and Qi Zhenjia.
With the development of the carrier pigeon industry, the pigeon breeding team continues to expand, and the identification of carrier pigeons is also controversial, but some theories are applied to the actual breeding and competition, but the contrast is very large. The pigeons that look good often fall from the ground, but the inconspicuous pigeons can often return home, and some can even get the rank.
Of course, there is also the question of the degree of understanding and operational level of the pigeon breeders.
In order to truly grasp and correctly use zhang Hongbin's pigeon fancier's experience in observing the neural banding of carrier pigeons, in addition to asking Mr. Zhang to talk about this theory in detail, we took 11 carrier pigeons with us and asked Zhang Hongbin to use the oculoscope to determine the quality of the carrier pigeons.
Among these 11 carrier pigeons are our Yinchuan fancier Ma Baoyun's 7,000 km, 15 km and 1,000 km peers, the 700 km 38 pigeons of Xu Chunyuan and the 1, 6, 10 and other pigeons who have not been released in the 500 km in my own shed.
After being examined by a fancier Zhang Hongbin with an ophthalmoscope, without any introduction, he correctly determined the racing level, flight speed and value of the breeding of each pigeon, whether it was a close relative and many other characteristics.
After careful explanation by Zhang Hongbin's fanciers, we quickly mastered the technique of ophthalmostat observation of carrier pigeons, and basically understood the genetic characteristics of the nerve bands under the eyes of pigeons to the ability to release and the value of breeding.
After returning to Yinchuan, we saw many pigeons from fanciers, more than 3,000 pigeons, judging the level of pigeons according to the theory of neural bands, with an accuracy of more than 95%.
In the preliminary practice, we have experienced that the pigeon selection with ophthalmoscope is more accurate than that of the eye sand and the appearance of the pigeon. Good eye sand does not necessarily have a good eye group, the pigeon's eye group is good, and the eye sand must not be wrong.
Jiang Chenguang also introduced this theory in the breeding mystery of teacher Jiang Chenguang, he said: "With the ophthalmoscope to observe the pigeon vision group, the pigeon eye has a thick, wide, rough navel, especially the pigeon with a pimple-like rough umbilicus, the fundus vision group must have a fat, wide and bright form, between the two, there is a certain correspondence, and among the offspring pigeons, the probability of high-speed pigeons is very large." ”
We are very grateful to Fancier Zhang Hongbin for his strong support and selfless experience, as well as for his contribution to the development of the pigeon industry in our country.
