Chapter 7 Go to sex, hang on a string, and become an eagle!
I saw its originally shrunken neck suddenly stretched, and then shook its head again and again.
After several attempts, a black food ball as big as the pad of a thumb was spit out from the eaglet's mouth.
This is the hair shaft Yue Feng mentioned.
Birds of prey make a living by catching various prey in the wild. After eating the food in their stomachs, some fur, bones and even foreign objects cannot be digested in their stomachs, so they will eat these debris early the next morning. spit it out.
Yesterday, when feeding the soaked sparrows, the eagle ate too hard and swallowed all the wet feathers into its stomach. Now, after digesting them overnight, it naturally vomited them out.
It is normal behavior for birds of prey to spit out indigestible food pellets.
In the long-term practice of falconry and falconry, smart falconers have discovered that food balls will bring out digestive juices and other substances from the eagle's stomach.
An eagle with its axis detached has a stronger desire to feed in actual combat and becomes more angry when hunting. Therefore, during the process of falcon training, there is the behavior of deliberately detaching the eagle.
There are several types of shafts. The common ones are hair shafts and hemp shafts. Different types such as rock sugar shafts and radish shafts are also used when training eagles.
Yue Feng fed the eagle with wet sparrows, and what came out was the hair shaft. This was also his favorite shaft for training eagles. The feathers were delicate and soft, so it was not easy to hurt the eagle. After spitting out the shaft, more digestive juices could be brought out of the cavity. The overall effect is better.
After spitting out the shaft, the condition of the big green kite changed significantly at a speed visible to the naked eye. Outside the courtyard wall, invisible to the naked eye, there were sparrows chirping early in the morning. Yue Feng stood on his hand. The little eagle, a pair of eyes looking around, the small fluff under the shell of the mouth and around the eyes have spread out.
This is a representative state of Shang Xing'er. When Yue Feng saw this, he immediately took the eagle into his hand and tied the tire thread prepared in advance to the bottom of the five feet.
Hang Xian'er succeeded!
Yue Feng asked his mother, who was cooking in the main room, to take out a live sparrow from the cage, pull off the main feathers on one side of the sparrow's wings, then wet the feathers thoroughly with water, and then put one leg on He broke it off and threw it in the yard.
The sparrow kept in the cage had been tortured for several days and was not in good condition. Now its legs were broken and its wing feathers were missing. It was left in the yard and was in a sluggish state. It could only jump around in a small area. Occasionally I would fall down.
After the preparations were completed, Yue Feng came out of the house with his eagle held flat. The sexually attracted kite recognized the injured sparrow more than ten meters away at a glance.
Seeing this, Yue Feng held the flat end of his right hand flat and threw the kite directly towards the sparrow.
I saw the kite taking action, like an arrow leaving the string. Its wings stretched out, then converged, and with a few accelerations, the sparrow was firmly trampled under its feet.
Experts will know if it is there as soon as it is launched. Even though it is just an ordinary operation of simulating an eagle, Yue Feng has already seen some clues from the flying posture of this kite.
This big green kite catches sparrows very quickly, and what's even more rare is that it keeps flying after it leaves the hand.
The so-called big flight means flying with all wings spread out, which is faster but consumes more energy.
If this kind of eagle is placed, it is fast, hunts fiercely, and has a very high success rate.
Besides big flying, there is another way of flying, which is to only extend the wings half way. This is called small flying. This kind of flying is more labor-saving, but the straight-line acceleration is much slower. Yue Feng, who was standing under the eaves, did not rush over immediately. Instead, he firmly grasped the other end of the tire line. While retracting the line, he cautiously walked towards the falcon that was eating.
The kite eagle ate white meat soaked in water yesterday, but today it switched to blood food. Its desire to eat has obviously increased, and it almost pulled off the large feather strips on the sparrow's wings, and then took a bite You can tear off a piece of meat from the sparrow.
A live sparrow with wet feathers was torn into pieces and swallowed in just a few mouthfuls. Even the hard sparrow beak, the fleshless legs and sparrow paws, They were all roughly swallowed up by the big green kite.
One sparrow cannot fill the stomach of a seven-and-a-half piece Big Green Kite. If measured by the normal amount of food, one would have to eat at least three to four a day.
However, falcon training cannot respect human rights or animal protection laws. If you want to grow an eagle to work in the fields as soon as possible, Yue Feng's current set of procedures is basically the most efficient option.
When the eagle finished the sparrow, Yue Feng had already straightened and put away the ten-meter-long string. This string tied five feet behind was equivalent to the safety rope during falcon training. Son, you can ensure that when you accidentally frighten the eagle, all your efforts will not be wasted.
Yue Feng was very satisfied with the operation of Chengying in the yard. The performance of the Big Green Harrier was better than Yue Feng expected.
Courageous, strong, capable of speeding up without hesitation when hunting, these qualities are all concentrated in an eagle. If time passes and the eagle is put in order, it will definitely become a strong warrior.
Yue Feng set up the hawk again and wandered around in the yard. When he got tired, he sat on the horse for a while until it was completely dark, then he went inside to have dinner with his parents.
After dinner, the food in the eagle's crop had been completely pushed into the lower crop and disappeared. Yue Feng used his gloves to flatten the eagle for a while, then let it go and rested it for a while, switching once an hour on average.
According to the training plan, Yue Feng plans to take the eagle to actual combat to become an eagle tomorrow, so tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
Yue Feng lit the oil lamp and played with the eagle until 2:30 in the middle of the night. The eagle stood on the man's hand with its head between its wings and completely fell asleep. Then he tied the eagle and went to the kang to sleep for a while.
At around 4:30, as soon as the rooster crows, Yue Feng climbs out of bed, puts on his clothes and shoes, and puts up the scaffolding on the back of the chair.
Less than half an hour later, the big green kite shook its head and spat out its hair shaft as usual. Yue Feng pinched the hair shaft and glanced at it to confirm that there was no problem. He immediately put his hawk up and strolled out of the house.
It was just dawn, and the whole village was still quiet. The autumn work in the fields had been done, so no one in the village could get up at this time. There were only a few dogs barking all the way out of the village. .
Yue Feng left the village with his eagle in his arms. As he walked on the road, he paid attention to the birds and other things that came to the ground along the path.
Many of the newly born eagles do not recognize large prey, but the big green kite held flat in Yue Feng's hand is not such a coward. Not far from the village, Yue Feng found the eagle held flat in his hand. He was working hard towards the bush pile more than 20 meters away.
The eagle's vision must be far stronger than that of ordinary people. After Yue Feng noticed that the green kite recognized the prey, he immediately stood there and observed it carefully.
After observing intently for a few seconds, Yue Feng quickly discovered the prey in the bushes.
