How To Check The Readiness Of Canaries With Pictures

How to examine female canaries in order to know whether or not they are ready for production. In this article, I will show you a few female canaries and male canaries that are ready and not for production in order to know the shape of their bellies.

How do we check the readiness of the canary:

We take the canary bird that we want to examine, turn it over like this on its back, then blow on its feathers until the skin of the canary’s belly appears like this. See the picture.

In relation to this picture, it depicts the abdomen of a female canary bird that is not ready for production at all. The evidence for this is that the abdomen of this female is full of feathers, which are dense feathers, and the circumference of the canary is also not swollen yet, meaning that it is still not ready yet.

As for this female canary, it has begun to prepare for production. As you can see, its belly has begun to shed feathers, as is the case with its outlet, Sharaf, may God have mercy on you. It has begun to swell a little and has begun to stand out. This picture explains the matter well. The rate of readiness for this female is approximately between 60 and 70 percent. .

This female is a female canary ready to produce. Watch the belly open and the feathers of this female’s belly fall out. God willing, it has reached 70 or 80 percent of readiness, and as you can see, the picture shows the matter very clearly.

The female canary is very ready for production

This female that appears in this picture is a female canary, very ready, God willing, and her abdomen has become very swollen and she can begin mating. Normally, at this time, the female must be fertilized so that she does not lay empty eggs.

Note: In this case, if we do not introduce the male to this female, in most cases, after three days to a week, she will lay empty eggs without fertilization. This is what actually happened to her. This is what Canary breeders in particular and ornamental birds in general do not like it during the ornamental bird production season.

Just to clarify, I have put together this explanation in order to clarify the method of examining canaries’ bellies and also to clarify the stage at which the breeder must introduce the male canary bird to his female in the production cage.

As for the stage in which we must enter the male canary, because it is: the stage of readiness for the second female, shown in the picture above, and the stage of readiness for the third female canary as well, as you saw in the picture above. As for the first female canary, you should not put the male bird to her. In this case, even if you put it for her, quarrels may occur between the birds, especially if the male bird is ready, and this female will not collect the nest at this stage.

As for the fourth female canary, I advise you not to leave the females until they reach this stage of readiness, and the evidence is that I was inadvertently late in bringing them together with the male canary, and she laid empty eggs even though I watched the mating process, and the reason, of course, is that the eggs are in her stomach. Before mating and fertilization takes place.

How to check the readiness of male canaries

We went to see the stomachs and exits of some male canaries. May God honor you. As for examining them, it is like examining female canaries. All you have to do is hold the bird upside down, then blow on its stomach so that the feathers around the abdomen and the exit are removed as well.

For male canary birds, their reproductive system is visible and prominent since puberty, but it swells more during the period of production and readiness, and this swelling varies according to the different male canaries, their different types, and their varying readiness. The best proof of this is the pictures that will appear below, despite the fact that all of these Birds sing loudly, but there are some differences between them in readiness.
