SummaryBuild bird nests: at a height of 2.5 m from the ground, build wheat-thrush bird nests. Breeding method: adopt ecological, free-range, natural breeding methods. Source of bird stock: they will settle and nest in artificially built bird nests, and then reproduce. Breeding stability: each nest can produce 4 young birds. Breeding conditions: they reproduce in seasons when insects are present. Survival characteristics: they like to live under the eaves of human dwellings.

1. Building bird nests

1. Build wheat-thrush bird nests at a height of 2.5 m from the ground. The bottom can use cement columns or large trees as support, and on top build honeycomb-style multi-layer wheat-thrush bird nests. Developing upward, they can reach as high as several dozen meters, and generally cover an area of 30 sq m.

2. Each ecological park can build 2-4 wheat-thrush bird breeding houses, and each breeding house can breed more than 100,000 wheat-thrush birds each year.

3. The wall thickness is generally 35-50 cm, with wheat-thrush bird nests built on both sides of the wall. The vertical and horizontal spacing between nests is 15 cm, the partition wall is 5-8 cm, the entrance of each nest is 4 cm in diameter, and the nest space is 8-10 cm, roughly the same size as a human fist.

4. The main materials include red brick and cement, adobe, perlite plus cement, foam board (styrofoam board) mixed with soil and weeds, beverage bottles, wide-mouth glass bottles, and so on.

2. Breeding method

Adopt ecological, free-range, natural breeding methods. Wheat-thrush birds like to fly all over the sky, and there is not much cost in the breeding process. They do not need to be fed other food and generally eat natural grass seeds and insects.

3. Source of bird stock

1. Young wheat-thrush birds bred by wheat-thrush birds in the current year will look for nests to settle and reproduce in the spring of the following year. The old wheat-thrush bird has only one nest and generally keeps it for its own use.

2. Most young wheat-thrush birds need a large number of wheat-thrush bird nests, that is, the holes in the wall, generally used to breed young wheat-thrush birds. If people build nests for the young wheat-thrush birds, they will come on their own to settle and nest, and then reproduce.

4. Breeding stability

1. As long as wheat-thrush birds build nests and reproduce in the completed nests, these will thereafter be the permanent home of the wheat-thrush birds. Generally, if humans do not destroy the wheat-thrush bird nests during the wheat-thrush bird breeding season, the wheat-thrush birds will not leave their nests.

2. In the cold regions of Heilongjiang Province, they can breed 3 nests each year, with an average of 4 birds per nest, breeding 1 nest each in June, July, and August, generally breeding 12 birds per nest each year.

5. Breeding conditions

Generally, they reproduce in seasons when insects are present in nature. Because young wheat-thrush birds need to eat large numbers of insects to grow, the insect season in the south is relatively longer than in the north. Generally, for every 30 days the insect season is extended, they can breed 1 more nest.

6. Survival characteristics

1. The places where wheat-thrush birds live are usually under the eaves of human dwellings. They like to leave early and return late, and work tirelessly to reproduce. They are also resident birds and never leave their birthplace all year round.

2. Wheat-thrush birds have well-developed muscles, very strong flexible flight skills, and are also especially good at catching insects. They can catch both generally stationary insects and various flying insects.

3. Wheat-thrush birds can not only fly vertically up and down, but can also make 90-degree sharp turns in flight. Their muscles also have relatively strong firmness, and the meat is dark red.
