Qhov Twg Yuav Cov Nyiaj Txiag

Hmoov tsis zoo, qee qhov budgies pom hauv khw muag tsiaj tuaj yeem yog cov khoom lag luam ntawm cov noog mills. Txawm li cas los xij, cov leeb cawm tsiaj tuaj yeem nrhiav tau nyob hauv txhua lub xeev thiab yuav muaj cov noog muaj rau kev saws me nyuam uas tau tshuaj ntsuam thiab kho kom huv, hais tias Jacqueline Johnson, Parrot Tus Thawj Saib Xyuas Chaw ntawm Cov Phooj Ywg Zoo Tshaj Tsiaj Chaw Tsiaj hauv Kanab, Utah.

Kev kuaj ntshav dav dav, nrog rau kev sim lwm yam mob, tseem tuaj yeem ua tau, tshwj xeeb yog ib tus kws kho tsiaj tau kuaj tus noog pom muaj qhov txawv txav.

Dab tsi Ua Budgerigars Noj?

Raws li Dr. Laurie Hess, DVM, cov kws tshaj lij cov noog uas muaj ntawv pov thawj thiab tus tswv ntawm Veterinary Center for Birds & Exotics hauv Bedford Hills, NY, budgies xav tau ntau yam zaub mov uas suav nrog tsim pellets, zaub tshiab thiab txiv hmab txiv ntoo, nrog cov noob muab raws li tsuas yog tej sijhawm kho. Feem ntau cov avian veterinarians pom zoo kom tsim cov pellets muaj txog 70 feem pua ntawm cov zaub mov noj (cov no yog cov khoom noj muaj txiaj ntsig thiab raug tsim los siv cov nplej, noob, zaub, txiv hmab txiv ntoo, vitamins, zaub mov, thiab lwm yam khoom noj muaj txiaj ntsig).

Txawm hais tias cov noob yuav yog cov zaub mov nyiam tshaj plaws ntawm budgerigars, ib qho tshwj xeeb, cov noob-tsuas yog kev noj zaub mov yog qhov tsis muaj, tsis muaj, McLaughlin tau hais tias, vim cov noob tsis tshua muaj tsawg nyob rau hauv yuav luag txhua yam tseem ceeb.

Feem ntau cov khoom noj thiab cov zaub mov muaj txiaj ntsig zoo rau tib neeg kuj yog khoom noj rau noog. Sim pub koj cov zaub pob uas muaj zaub qhwv tshiab lossis ua khoom noj khov, txwv tsis pub cov txiv ntoo ntau dhau (nws muaj suab thaj ntau thiab tuaj yeem ua rog), nrog rau cov zaub mov kaus poom, vim tias lawv yuav muaj qee yam khaws cia uas yuav tsis nyab xeeb rau koj noog, Dr. McLaughlin hais.

Budgerigars tuaj yeem yog tsiaj ntawm tus cwj pwm, thiab McLaughlin pom zoo kom tsis txhob hloov dab tsi tam sim ntawd hauv lawv cov zaub mov noj, vim tias qee tus noog yuav tsis pom cov khoom tshiab ua khoom noj thiab tej zaum lawv yoo tshaib. Nws tau hais tias "Tus tswv tsev yuav tsum tham nrog tus kws kho tsiaj av yog tias lawv txiav txim siab txog kev noj zaub mov zoo," nws hais.

Dr. Hess, xws li miv los yog dev uas yuav xav tias yog yoov li tus raug mob, tus tswv yuav tsum tau ceev faj kom tsis txhob muaj cov noog tawm ntawm lawv lub tawb. lwm cov tsiaj nyob ib puag ncig thiab yuav tsum paub tseeb tias cov chaw khaws khoom kaw thawb kaw tau ruaj ruaj thiab tsis yooj yim nyob hauv lwm tus tsiaj.
