Falconry: Molting your bird
Vložit
- čas přidán 10. 03. 2024
- This falconry video teaches how to properly molt any bird of prey. Birds molt their feathers every year. But there are many vital components to this process, from food choice and water, to housing, how food is presented, handling, free lofting vs tethered, etc. This video is extremely important to prevent a bird from becoming aggressive, to help a bird properly grow in new feathers, and to keep a bird from damaging the new growing feathers.

Love the easy way you present your thoughts, experience and variables. I love to mimic bird calls and add my own unique sounds. I have resident Steller Jay's and one is a ventriloquist. It mimics the Redtail and my version of the same bootio. Birds are amazingly entertaining in so many ways!❤❤
Oh my God I wish I can be there. They’re so beautiful.❤
Another method for accipiters is to create a sacrificial spot in your yard you use on the molt only. You can take your bird there, let it jump off to the food and then just tether it there and let it eat and weather at the same time
Great video!
Love your videos ❤ pretty birds
Hey Ben, would love to see some more videos on dog training and abatement programs.
Great info, Ben. Thank you! 🥰👍
Thank you for this video - very helpful information, and just at the right time, as our (my wife and I fly her) female Harris's Hawk is about to start her molt. Also very good info regarding what food to give, thank you very much for sharing your insight and letting us benefit from your experience.
Cool cool. Harris hawks are more prone to become vocal if you feed them in the new over the summer. Good to watch out for it
Well, she's vocal, no doubt about that (this is her second molt). So maybe that ship has already sailed. But she's also very playful during her molt (well, she was last year, and she's showing all the signs again this year). It is so much fun watching her going to town with a pinecone or a dog toy. We are very lucky to have very generous and understanding neighbours :-)
This video was so informative. Its my first moult, and im keeping my RT through it. You and my sopnsor said a lot of the same things.
Got me to click real fast 😂
I'd love to hear your thoughts on reverse molting or flying through the molt. could be beneficial to anyone wanting to fly a kestrel on starlings over the summer or something similar. love the videos!
Yes, I would love to hear see that discussed!
I would really like to see a video on gyr aplomado hybdrids. I’m not sure how much is out there about it but I know I could count you as a reliable source
Any advice on avoiding fret marks when molting?
Hows the wee taita falcon coming along Ben? I would love another video update on where you’re at with it. (Just giving you an excuse to talk about it more cuz i know you want to.😂)
Cam explain how you rangle the bird once you reclaim them from molt we in middle east use shnathara and I personally is against it as its a licensed and alm it does is just get rid if the mucous accumulation in the crop and causes bruising which us eventually treated with antibiotics and stuff and I absolutely don't like it
Where do you guys buy your astro turf?
Can meat rabbits serve as a food source for falconry birds?
Ben is the white goshawk with the dark head @8:55 your bird ?
The Bateleur at 12:10 tho.

Yes beautiful bird.
"But they do it in the wild" is one of my least favorite arguments. Natural isn't always best.
