Methods and Technical Key Points for Artificial Breeding of the Hwamei

The hwamei is small and cute with a beautiful voice, and many people like to keep them for enjoyment and viewing, but quite a few people do not know how to get them to breed and produce young hwameis. What are the methods for artificial breeding of the hwamei?

Methods for artificial breeding of the hwamei

1. Build a breeding cage for the hwamei at home or not far from home. Keep the cage height at 3-4 m, and the area depends on the bird species in the cage, around several dozen sq m, with one pair per cage; they can also be kept together with other species of birds.

2. Make netting as needed; double-sided netting can be used to prevent their natural enemies from getting close.

3. Inside the breeding cage, provide green plants such as small trees and low shrubs, and a shelter for shade and rain protection can be set up; at the same time, a small pool should also be built for them to get water. Try to arrange it as close as possible to the wild environment. Hwameis will build their own nests, and some friends will also provide a bird nest.

4. Usually they can be fed chick feed or hwamei feed. As the hatching time approaches, provide them with a large amount of mealworms, so that the adult birds can also supplement nutrition and will also take food to feed the young chicks.

5. Keep the breeding cage environment as quiet as possible, and do not disturb them often.

Some are kept together from the start, while others are put in the same cage later; this can be decided according to the actual situation. In one cage, cm only one pair of male and female hwameis is needed, and there should not be extra birds of the same species.
