Pigeon beans (also known as pigeon grains or chickpeas) are a common bird feed and an important source of nutrients for raising pigeons. The following are general guidelines for handling pigeon beans:
1. Cleaning: Soak pigeon beans in clean water to remove surface dirt and impurities. Then rinse with clean water several times until the water becomes clear.
2. Soak and cook: Soak the washed pigeon beans in enough water for 6 to 8 hours to soften them. Afterwards, it can be cooked using boiling water, which usually takes about 1 to 2 hours. Make sure the pigeon beans are fully cooked and become soft and chewy.
3. Cooling and filtering: Soak the cooked pigeon beans in cold water for a period of time, then filter the water through a strainer or strainer. This helps remove possible residual harmful substances and makes pigeon beans safer to eat.
4. Supply in appropriate amounts: Supply processed pigeon beans to pigeons in batches. Each pigeon consumes different quantities, so the supply of pigeon beans can be determined based on need and observation of their food intake.
Please note that the above steps provide general instructions for handling pigeon beans. If you are using pigeon beans as feed for your pigeons, it is best to seek the advice of your veterinarian or a professional pigeon breeder for more specific guidance and advice. They can provide more accurate advice based on your specific situation and the needs of your pigeons to ensure proper handling of feed and the health of your pigeons.
