Loaʻa i nā manu nā koi ʻokoʻa, kahi āu e mālama pono ai i ka manu. ʻAʻole wale kēia i ka lele manuahi ʻole i kēlā me kēia lā a i ʻole ka mālama ʻana i nā manu i ka manawa like a i ʻole ke koho ʻana i kahi hale paʻa e hāʻawi i kahi kūpono no nā manu e lele ai a lele i laila.
He kuleana koʻikoʻi ko ka meaʻai a ʻaʻole pono e hoʻohaʻahaʻa ʻia. ʻO ka meaʻai maloʻo maʻamau no nā manu, hiki iā ʻoe ke kauoha ma ka pūnaewele a kūʻai paha i loko o nā hale kūʻai holoholona, hānai nui ʻia.
Akā, he aha kāu mea e mālama ai i ka manu a he aha nā mea e pono ai kāu mau puaʻa e mālama iā lākou i ke olakino a me ka makaʻala? E ʻike ʻoe ma kēia ʻatikala.
Nā ʻano meaʻai maloʻo e like me nā ʻano manu
Ma nā hale kūʻai a me nā hale kūʻai pūnaewele, e ʻike ka poʻe nona nā manu i kahi koho nui o nā ʻano meaʻai like ʻole mai nā mea hana hana like ʻole, no laila ʻaʻole maʻalahi ka loaʻa ʻana o ka hānai manu maloʻo kūpono no kāu manu ponoʻī. Eia nō naʻe, ʻaʻole pili ka mea hana hana i hana ai a i ʻole ka nui o ke kumukūʻai.
He mea nui nā mea ʻokoʻa. No laila pono ʻoe e koho i ka meaʻai e pili ana i kāu manu a e hōʻoia i ka pono o nā meaʻai no ka ʻano o ka manu. He ʻokoʻa nā koi meaʻai o ka canary ma mua o ke kao a pono i nā huaora a me nā minela like ʻole.
Eia kekahi, ʻaʻole hiki i nā manu ke ʻae i kekahi mau mea, a hauʻoli nā manu ʻē aʻe i ka ʻai ʻana. No kēia kumu, he mea nui e hāʻawi wale i ka meaʻai i hui pū ʻia no nā ʻano manu.
Hoʻolauna mākou iā ʻoe i kekahi mau manu me nā pono kūikawā no kā lākou meaʻai maloʻo.
Meaʻai no nā canaries
I nā canaries, ʻo ka meaʻai nui nā hua like ʻole. Pono kēia mau mea i ke kūlana kiʻekiʻe a loaʻa i nā hui like ʻole a i ʻole, inā loaʻa mai nā hale kūʻai holoholona, hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻohui iā ʻoe iho. Hāʻawi kēia iā ʻoe i ka manawa e noʻonoʻo ai i ka ʻono o kāu mau holoholona. Hiki ke loaʻa i ka hua hemp, ka hua mauʻu, ka hua negro, ka linseed, a me nā hua he nui. Hoʻokipa maikaʻi ʻia nā poppies a me nā ʻanoano hihiu e nā manu a ua waiwai i nā huaora a me nā meaʻai nui ʻē aʻe.
Eia kekahi, hiki i nā mea a pau ke hōʻino i kā lākou canaries me nā huahana hou, he mea nui nō hoʻi, no ka mea he nui nā huaora i loko o kēia mau huahana, kahi mea nui i ke ola o nā holoholona. Eia ka mea hiki, no ka laʻana, e lūlū i kekahi mau hua mai ka hānai, i makemake nui ʻia e nā holoholona. No laila hiki iā ʻoe ke hauʻoli i ka wā e ulu wale ana nā hua.
ʻO ka meaʻai maloʻo kūpono no nā budgies
Pono nō hoʻi ʻo Budgerigars i ka hua manu kūpono no lākou a ʻaʻole pono kēia i ke ʻano kiʻekiʻe, akā he ʻano like ʻole. No laila, pono e loaʻa nā ʻano millet like ʻole a me ka hua canary ma ʻaneʻi. ʻO nā ʻaila hinu, ʻaʻole pono e ʻoi aku ma mua o ʻelima pakeneka o ka hui ʻana o ka meaʻai, ua hoʻokomo pū ʻia i loko o nā huahana hānai maʻamau i hoʻomākaukau ʻia a hoʻokipa maikaʻi ʻia e kēlā me kēia holoholona.
Makemake nā Budgies e ʻai i nā ʻanoʻano hou a i ʻole nā hua pehu. I ka nānā pono ʻana, kokoke loa kēia i ka meaʻai maoli o nā holoholona a kūpono loa i nā holoholona e momona wikiwiki. ʻO kēia no ka mea hiki i nā budgies ke ʻai liʻiliʻi i ka meaʻai ma mua o nā hua ponoʻī.
Ma waho aʻe o ka ʻai maloʻo, pono ʻoe e hōʻoia i ka loaʻa ʻana o kāu mau holoholona i nā meaʻai ʻōmaʻomaʻo i ʻole nā hōʻailona o ka hemahema. Hiki iā ʻoe ke hōʻiliʻili i kēia ma ke ʻano a kau pololei iā ia i loko o ka hale paʻa a i ʻole e waiho i loko o nā kaola mai waho.
Hiki ke hānai ʻia nā mea ʻono liʻiliʻi, e like me ka millet kaulana a kaulana loa. ʻAʻole hoʻohana ʻia nā koʻokoʻo hānai ʻē aʻe no ka hānai ʻana, akā no ka mālama ʻana i nā holoholona, i pale aku i ka luhi a me ka hoʻopaʻapaʻa ma waena o nā holoholona.
Eia nō naʻe, ʻaʻole pono e hānai pinepine iā lākou, no ka mea hiki i nā holoholona ke momona wikiwiki mai ke kō i loko o lākou. No kēia kumu, ʻaʻole pono e hāʻawi i nā budgerigars i meaʻai hou a i ʻole e hāʻawi wale iā lākou i ka ʻai ʻōmaʻomaʻo ke loaʻa iā lākou kahi koʻokoʻo hānai, no ka mea, ʻae ʻia nā holoholona e ʻai nui i ia mea.
ʻO ka meaʻai maloʻo kūpono no nā parrots
ʻAʻole maʻalahi ka loaʻa ʻana o ka meaʻai kūpono no kāu kao ponoʻī. ʻO ka mea nui kēia ma muli o ka hiki ʻole ke loaʻa ka meaʻai maoli ma ko mākou ʻano. Nui nā ʻano ʻokoʻa o nā parrots, ʻo ia hoʻi he ʻokoʻa nā pono meaʻai.
No ka laʻana, pono nā cockatoos a me nā amazons i nā kumulāʻau sunflower liʻiliʻi, no ka mea, ʻo kēia mau ʻano ʻelua he mau kao e maʻa wikiwiki i ke kaumaha. Me nā macaws, ma kekahi ʻaoʻao, hiki iā ʻoe ke hānai i nā nati, ma muli o ka nui o ka neʻe ʻana.
I ka ʻimi ʻana i ka meaʻai i hoʻomākaukau pono ʻia, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻohui ʻana i nā meaʻai i hoʻomākaukau ʻia, akā ʻaʻole pono ia i loko o nā pī. Hoʻopilikia pinepine ʻia ka pīkī e ka poʻi a ʻaʻole ʻae ʻia. ʻO nā hua hou, ma kekahiʻaoʻao, pono e loaʻa i ka hānai.
He aha kēia mau mea like ʻole mai kahi huahana a huahana. Hoʻohana nui ʻia nā hua Rowan, hawthorn, firethorn, a me nā pūhaka rose.
He waiwai kēia i nā huaora a he mea maikaʻi loa ia i kāu poʻe aloha. Pono e hāʻawi ʻia ka hānai pua ma ke ʻano he kumu o nā huaora a hiki ke loaʻa ma lalo o ka inoa hānai manu nūnū. Pono e waiho ʻia kēia meaʻai maloʻo i loko o ka wai no ʻeono a ʻewalu mau hola a laila waiho ʻia e pehu i loko o kahi kānana liʻiliʻi no kahi o 24 mau hola.
Ma waho aʻe o ka meaʻai maloʻo, pono e hāʻawi ʻia nā parrots me nā meaʻai hou ma ke ʻano o ka ʻai ʻōmaʻomaʻo a me nā lālā hou, no ka mea he nui nā huaora. Loaʻa ka ʻai ʻōmaʻomaʻo ma ke ʻano a hiki ke hāʻawi ʻia i ka nui.
Panina
I ke koho ʻana i ka meaʻai kūpono, pono ʻoe e ʻike mua i nā koi o kēlā me kēia ʻano o nā manu a laila hoʻoponopono i ka meaʻai e like me ia. Mahalo i nā ʻano like ʻole he nui, akā naʻe, aia mau kahi mea kūpono no nā ʻono like ʻole, i hiki ke hoʻohui ʻia ka ʻono me nā huaora a me nā meaʻai.
Mai hānai wale i ka meaʻai maloʻo maʻemaʻe, akā hāʻawi pū kekahi i ka meaʻai ʻōmaʻomaʻo a i ʻole kahi ʻai liʻiliʻi. E hōʻoia i ka maikaʻi o ka kibble a hui pū ʻia e like me ka nui o nā manu e hōʻole i ka meaʻai i hāʻawi pinepine ʻia. Inā hoʻokaʻawale ʻoe i ka manawa e ʻimi ai i ka meaʻai maloʻo kūpono no kāu mau manu, e hoʻomaikaʻi aku kāu mea aloha iā ʻoe me ka nui o nā leo a me nā manawa nui.
