Chapter 6: Bian Ying, arrogant, making food with hairy shafts
Yue Lei nodded: "Okay! This eagle training skill passed down to you by your grandfather has not fallen behind at all!"
That night, Yue Feng set up the hawk for less than an hour, tied it up again, lit a lamp and boiled oil until about eleven o'clock in the evening, then untied the hawk and tied it to the chair and quilt at home.
The eagle, which had been held in the hand for a day, quickly relaxed after being put on the shelf, and its feathers fluffed up into a fluffy ball. After Yue Feng turned on the lamp and went to sleep on the kang, he quickly put his head down. He buried himself into his neck and rested on one leg.
It was still dark the next morning, and my mother in the east room had just gotten up. When Yue Feng heard the noise, he woke up, put on his clothes and got off the kang. The kite was tightened again.
Next, whether he got up to pee, or washed his face and ate, Yue Feng held the kite in one hand and did it with one hand. After resting for a few hours, the green kite regained some of its wildness and quickly adapted to yesterday's rhythm.
For the next whole day, Yue Feng almost stayed at home with the eagle lying down. He untied the eagle once at noon and in the evening and stood there for half an hour. The rest of the time was almost exactly the same as yesterday.
In the early morning of the third day, Yue Feng took out a sparrow from the cage, crushed it to death, skinned it, disembowelled it, and soaked it in the water with its fur.
When the sky dawned, Yue Feng got up early again, tied up the eagle, took two nests from the big pot and put them in his arms, strolled out of the house and went straight to the market in the next village. .
Due to some indescribable reasons, in the rural gatherings of this era, there was hardly any money transaction on the surface. Most people took out the limited supplies at home and went to the gathering. Exchange things you can use.
Yue Feng held his hawk in his arms and strolled around the market. He quickly chose a large locust tree near the entrance of the village and sat down under it.
There are people playing chess here, and there are many spectators watching the fun. There are voices, arguments, and occasionally laughter. This kind of environment is very good for Yingchang, and the position is sufficient.
Seeing this, many people may have a question in their heads, what is going on with this intrusion?
In fact, it is very simple. To explain it from a scientific perspective, it is social adaptation. Let the eagle become familiar with the stimulation of human activities, so that the eagle can get used to the presence of people and slowly let go of stress.
When you become familiar with Ying Chuang Face, even if you are facing a group of people in front of you, you will not raise your eyelids. You should eat and drink when you should, and you will no longer be afraid.
Only an eagle with a thoroughly familiar face can be taken out of the siege. Otherwise, if you let go, the eagle will be scared and fly away, and it can only look at the sky with tears in its eyes.
The Daji arrived from dawn in the morning until around three o'clock in the afternoon. When everyone was almost gone, Yue Feng rushed home with Xiao Ying in his arms.
After a whole day of making faces, the big green kite's eyes were obviously much more relaxed when looking at people, and his pupils were no longer condensed into needlepoints.
After getting home, Yue Feng untied the eagle and let the eagle, which had been holding it in for a long time, strip it. Then he took the feathered sparrow that had been soaked all night from the pot table.
Counting from the time when the eagle came down from the net, today is already the third day. In these three days, Yue Feng has not only given enough water to the eagle, but the eagle has not eaten a bite of meat. , there are basically only water strips left.
In falconry terms, the eagle is now completely empty.
Even after a few days, the eagle was no longer afraid of people and was very hungry.
When he saw the sparrow soaked in water in Yue Feng's hand, Xiaoying immediately moved.
He rushed forward with all his strength, but because the legs were held in Yue Feng's hand, he was hung headfirst.
Yue Feng held the two parts open with his right hand, and with a slight swing, the little eagle returned to his hand and stood upright. Then Yue Feng held the sparrow with his left hand and carefully placed it under the little eagle's talons. Snap! There was a crisp sound, and the big green kite's sharp claws grabbed the sparrow with wet feathers as fast as lightning, and then lowered its head and started eating crazily.
The food of a hungry and empty kite can be described as voracious. After the sparrow has been disemboweled and soaked in water all night, the blood in the flesh has long been soaked out, which is basically equivalent to soaking in water. White meat.
Feeding this kind of meat to the eagle will provide much less energy to the eagle, but at this moment, the hungry little eagle can't take care of this and just tear it apart.
Switching to a live sparrow, the first thing the eagle does after catching it is to pluck out its feathers, and then it starts to eat. However, the feathers of the sparrow soaked in water are completely soaked. When the eagle eats, nothing but The large feathers on the wings and tail, and the other small downs, are impossible to pick out.
Just like that, in less than three minutes, a soaked sparrow was screwed into the stomach.
After eating the sparrow, a small bulge appeared in the crop on the chest of the little eagle. With food in the crop, the eagle could not be flattened. Yue Feng directly took a horse and sat the eagle on his bed. yard.
Should I say it or not, this big green kite has a very stable character. Even after eating food and carrying it into the yard, he still stood firm in Yue Feng's hand.
Yue Feng held a hawk and kept observing the subtle reactions of the big green kite. This guy is not afraid of people at all now. Even Yue Feng's mother Meng Yulan pushed the door into the yard from outside, and the big green kite still didn't struggle. .
Every once in a while, the Green Harrier tilts its head and twists its neck, pressing the food in the crop into its lower stomach. As it gradually adapts to the feeling of standing on its hands, the base of its tail The short hair gradually became fluffy, and the 12 tail feathers were gathered together like a stick. They swayed twice every once in a while, showing that they were more relaxed.
Yue Feng was relatively relaxed when he saw the eagle. He used his left hand to stroke the feathers of the eagle every once in a while. He was a little resistant at first, but as time went by, when Yue Feng stroked the eagle's feathers again later, the big green kite No more tight hair.
By the time Jingjing came back from school at 4:30 in the afternoon, carrying her schoolbag, the kite in Yue Feng's hand had completely relaxed.
I saw that even the feathers on its face were completely fluffed. In jargon, this is called open-faced. The feathers all over its body were fluffed into balls, like an old hen squatting on its hands.
Jingjing knew that the kite caught by her second brother was the key to her eating the half-sand chicken, so in the past few days, she had gone to her brother to play with Xiaoying when she had nothing to do.
However, Yue Feng knew that no matter how small a bird of prey is, it is still a bird of prey, so he never let his sister touch the eagle.
Seeing the state of the eagle this evening, Yue Feng made an exception and let the youngest touch the big green harrier's chest, which made the little girl giggle.
That night, Yue Feng ate with the eagle in one hand. By the time after dinner, around seven o'clock, all the food in the Green Harrier's crop was gone.
Yue Feng held the eagle and lit the oil lamp until eleven o'clock. Then he tied the eagle, turned off the light, and went to sleep on the kang.
I only slept for more than four hours this time, and it was still dark. When Yue Feng heard the first rooster crow in the village, he crawled out of bed early.
The eagle resting on the back of the chair still had its head stuck in the feathers without raising its head. After Yue Feng got up, he took out a roll of tire wire from the bedside and put it in his pocket, then put on the eagle stand with gloves on.
The fight lasted from around 4 o'clock to 5:30, and the big kite finally responded.
The backend has come to sign private messages. Brothers who have not invested can invest and get started! In addition, what the hell is it that the people who invest are higher than the collection in the background?
