ʻOi aku ka nui o ka poʻe e mālama i kā lākou moa ponoʻī, ʻoiai ma nā kūlanakauhale. Mahalo i ka ʻenehana hou, mālama ʻia ka hoʻoikaika a me nā koina i loko o nā palena. Eia naʻe, ʻaʻole hiki ke hana me ka ʻole o ka hoʻopukapuka kālā a me ka hoʻomākaukau ʻana.
Ke hoʻomaka ka pūnāwai astronomical i ka lā Malaki 20, ʻaʻole wale ke ʻano e ala i ke ola hou, akā i ka makemake o nā poʻe he nui i kahi holoholona. ʻO ka mea maʻamau, hāʻule ka koho i kahi holoholona hulu: he pōpoki e hoʻopili ai, he ʻīlio e kiaʻi i ka hale a me ka pā, a i ʻole he puaʻa puaʻa e aloha ai. Inā he manu, a laila he budgerigar a he canary paha. Kakaʻikahi ka manaʻo o ka mālama ʻana i nā moa i holoholona?
ʻAʻohe mea kānalua ʻaʻole nā moa he mau mea pāʻani puʻupuʻu, ʻaʻole hoʻi he mau holoholona ma ke ʻano haiki; ʻAʻole lākou e noho i loko o ka hale akā ma ko lākou hale. Akā, loaʻa iā lākou nā pono ʻē aʻe e ʻoi aku ka wikiwiki o ka puʻuwai. Eia ke ʻano o ka moa e hana ai i kā lākou ʻai no ka ʻaina kakahiaka; Ma muli o ka pua, hiki iā ʻoe ke komo i loko o ka pūnana hoʻomoe kokoke i kēlā me kēia lā a lawe i kahi hua manu - kahi āu i ʻike ai ua waiho ʻia e kahi moa hauʻoli a olakino.
ʻAʻole ʻoe e luhi i ka moa, no ka mea, ʻaʻole mālie ka pā moa. Hiki ke mālie iki no kekahi mau manawa ma ke awakea, i ka wā e ʻauʻau ai nā moa a i ʻole ʻauʻau one. A i ʻole, e ʻakaʻaka ana nā holoholona leʻaleʻa, e ʻoki ana, e hakakā ana, e hoʻomoe ana i nā hua manu, a i ʻole ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana, a lākou e hana pono ai i nā manawa he nui i ka lā.
ʻAʻole hiki ke hoʻopaʻapaʻa ʻia ka loaʻa ʻana o nā pono hoʻonaʻauao no nā keiki. Aʻo lākou e lawe i ke kuleana a me ka mahalo i nā holoholona ma ke ʻano he mau mea ola. Akā me nā moa, ʻaʻole aʻo wale nā keiki i ka mālama ʻana iā lākou a pehea e hānai ai iā lākou i kēlā me kēia lā. ʻIke pū lākou ʻaʻole i hana ʻia nā hua mai ka hale kūʻai ma kahi laina hui, akā waiho ʻia e nā moa. He mea maʻalahi kēia i ke aʻo ʻana iā lākou no ka bipi mai ka waiū a me ka palai mai ka māla ʻuala.
Mai ka hilinaʻi a hiki i ka Cheeky
Eia naʻe, ʻaʻole pono wale nā moa akā hoihoi nō hoʻi ke nānā aku. Aia kekahi mea e hana ana i loko o ka pā moa, ʻo ka ʻano o nā moa ka mea hoihoi i nā mea noiʻi. ʻO Erich Baumler, no ka laʻana, nānā i ka moa no nā makahiki a kākau i ka puke Kelemania mua e pili ana i ka ʻano o nā moa i nā makahiki 1960, i ʻōlelo pinepine ʻia i kēia lā.
Akā, hilinaʻi nā moa i nā holoholona hiki ke ʻai ʻia a ʻohi ʻia paha. Maʻa koke lākou i kekahi mau kuʻuna. Inā hāʻawi mau ʻoe iā lākou i nā kīʻaha a i ʻole nā mea ʻono ʻē aʻe ke komo lākou i ko lākou wahi, e holo wikiwiki lākou i ka hōʻailona mua o ke kipa ʻana i ʻole e poina i kekahi mea. Hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻokokoke loa i nā ʻano hilinaʻi e like me Chabos a i ʻole Orpingtons. ʻAʻole ia he mea maʻamau ka ʻai ʻana mai loko mai o kou lima ma hope o ka manawa pōkole o ka maʻa ʻana iā lākou. Me nā ʻano hilahila e like me Leghorns, ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi o ka manawa e maʻa ai iā lākou. I kekahi manawa pono ʻoe e makaʻala i nā Araucanas, no ka mea, he maʻa mau lākou a he ʻakaʻaka.
ʻAʻole ʻokoʻa nā moa i ko lākou ʻano akā i ko lākou ʻano, kala, a me ka nui. Me ka ʻoi aku o 150 mau ʻano ʻano ʻokoʻa i helu ʻia ma ka Poultry Standard, ʻaʻohe kānalua e loaʻa i kēlā me kēia mea hoʻohiwahiwa ka moa i kūpono iā ia.
He mau ʻumi makahiki i hala aku nei, ua nānā ʻia ka poʻe mahiʻai moa me ka liʻiliʻi. Ua manaʻo ʻia lākou he conservative a mau loa i nehinei. Eia naʻe, ua loli nui kēia i nā makahiki i hala iho nei. I kēia mau lā, aia ka mālama ʻana i nā moa, a ke ʻakaʻaka nei nā moa i nā māla o kekahi mau hale kaona. ʻO ke kumu o kēia aia ma ka ʻaoʻao hoʻokahi i ke ʻano o kēia manawa i ka ʻai ʻana i ka meaʻai olakino e like me ka hiki me nā ala kaʻa pōkole loa.
Ma kekahi ʻaoʻao, kōkua pū ka ʻenehana hou. No ka mea, inā ua lako pono ʻoe, pono ʻoe e hoʻolilo i ka manawa liʻiliʻi e mālama i nā holoholona. Mahalo i kā lākou uaki i loko, hele kaʻawale nā holoholona i ka pā hale i ke ahiahi. ʻO ka ʻīpuka moa piha piha e hoʻomalu i ka hele ʻana i ka pā moa i ke ahiahi a i ke kakahiaka. Mahalo i nā mea hana wai a me ka hānai ʻana i kēia manawa, ua hoʻomaha ʻia kēia hana i nā kahu moa o kēia mau lā - ʻoiai ke ʻōlelo mau ʻia kahi mākaʻikaʻi mākaʻikaʻi.
Inā loaʻa i nā moa he wahi ʻōmaʻomaʻo e holo ai i ke kauwela, kahi e hiki ai iā lākou ke ʻohi i nā hua hāʻule, e lōʻihi loa ka lako meaʻai. Ma nā lā wela wale nō e pono e nānā i ka wai i kēlā me kēia lā. ʻAʻole maikaʻi nā moa i ka wela ma mua o nā mahana anuanu. Inā ʻaʻohe wai no ka manawa lōʻihi, hiki ke maʻi i nā maʻi. I ka hihia o nā moa, hiki iā ia ke alakaʻi i ka waiho ʻana a i ʻole ka liʻiliʻi e alakaʻi i kahi hana hoʻomoe.
