For
a Swallow breeder, information about swallow food is very important to know. Do
not let you feed the wrong bird so that the bird is reluctant to eat it. Eating
is a way for living things to survive, including swallows.
By
regularly providing food, of course, it can make swallows healthier and
actively move. But also make sure, you really provide hygienic food and really
like it. Do you know what swallow food is? The following is the explanation:
Swallow Bird Food in the Wild
In
nature, this one animal can get its food so easily. They can fly here and there
to get the food they want. In general, swallows will head to forests, swamps,
or agricultural areas to find food.
In
the wild, swallows will eat small insects and other similar animals. Swallow
birds will never find it difficult to find food, even though they often do it.
Especially if the swallow is an adult, it will certainly be easier to find it.
Swallow Food When Still Piyik
Swallow
piyik feed of course you have to pay attention as best as possible. Because
this is one way of caring for swallows properly. While still a piyik, the
swallow food business is actually the business of the parent. This makes you no
longer need to feed him from outside because it makes the parent feel annoyed
and becomes blurred.
For
that, make sure the swallow piyik really eats directly from the brood's mouth.
This can increase the resistance of piyik because the food contains antibodies
that can boost the immune system.
So,
you only need to feed the broodstock. You can make a pond around the nesting
location for mosquito nests and water fleas which are the main food of
swallows. Make sure the food stock is always available so that the chicks do
not eat late so that their growth is disturbed. Alternatively, you can plant
lamtoro, acacia, waru, or mango around the yard for insect nests.
Adult Swallow Food
When
swallows mature, they can find their own food in the wild. The food remains the
same, namely small insects. In addition, caterpillars can also be the best food
alternatives. Caterpillars have high nutritional content and protein and are
good for swallow growth.
There
are many ways you can get caterpillars as a swallow food menu. First, you can
do this by laying out ingredients such as tapioca flour, cassava, and various
kinds of nuts on the floor where the swallow's nest is located.
The
second way is by using fruit peels such as rambutan skin, jackfruit skin, mango
skin and several other types of fruit skin. Lay the skin on the floor and wait
for the skin to rot. Gradually it will release caterpillars and small insects.
That
is the information that I can share about swallow food, both still and adults.
Hopefully helpful, and thank you.
