SHAMA BIRD

Shama Bird, known by the Latin name (Copsychus malabaricus), and have clasification:

Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Class: Aves
Order: Passeriformes
Family: Muscicapidae
Genus: Copsychus
Species: C. malabaricus
Binomial name
Copsychus malabaricus

In Indonesia, shama bird has become a favorite among fans of the race birds. With prices reaching hundreds of millions of dollars, shama bird became one of the most favorite bird in Indonesia.

Failure of captivity in Jambi as informed Kompas.Com is one thing that proves the level of difficulty raising shama bird. Various difficulties were not close all the doors for breeding, after all, many a successful breeder of shama bird in Java and outside Java.

A sharp decline in population and the destruction of forests and the high public interest in the arrest and bird enthusiasts to be the cause of the extinction of the twittering of shama birds.

Shama bird breeding
Shama bird pairing process (Section Introduction)
To raise shama bird can not actually say it has proven difficult because many were successful menangkarkannya. If anyone said it was difficult, though the pairing is a long-tailed birds are relatively more difficult than in other birds such as canaries and the like.

If one pairing, very often the case in the female pecking by males with a unique way. I say unique because the male when the female does not beat up is take a long time like other binanang fight. But quite a few seconds after the female was approached (not as in pecking or another) by the pajantan, how long hose and then the females will die. This is one of the uniqueness of shama bird.

Well, to avoid some cases like the above, there are practical steps that can be applied. First, hold the first of the candidates 'bride' from the shama bird. To keep things that are not in want, the longer will be the better approach. It aims to better know each other magpie stone. Like us humans. Because some cases the breeders magpie natural stone, there is an instant although not recommended, which directly enter into the breeding cage. It makes a very high level of risk of failure. However, there are also successful.

The process of this approach roughly takes about 2 (two) weeks to a month. The easiest benchmark in the process of this approach is shama bird if it is bersahut-replication, then the candidates 'bride' can be put at closer distances. I will discuss the process of pairing shama bird (Part 2). (Sp)

PRICE OF BIRD

There are several things that affect the price of birds in the market such as the amount of demand and supply. If that's probably already prevalent in the know of many people. If the amount of supply on the market more than the demand, eat bird prices will go down and vice versa. As an example of the first bird that kacer also not so drastic increase in going from the wild because of supply that meets the bird market in each week also was never lonely.



No less interesting is how the influence of the media in influencing the price of birds. Why I can say like this? The main indicators that affect the price of the bird is a bird race in Indonesia. Try it if there is no race of birds, bird price may also not as expensive as this now .. True `not`?
With the race of birds, a red anis who was champion can reach prices of tens to hundreds of millions of dollars. Likewise the other birds that enter into the category of race.
Then, how the influence of media? The discussion of a particular bird in the media can increase public interest in birds twittering fans. One type of bird is a bird I still remember the new Colibri few months ago suffered price trend due to some media that preach about the honey bird. Plus, there are some areas which open the class of birds that have beautiful colors such.
Another example is the case parakeet a few moments ago. Earlier, the price of a pair of parakeets not more than Rp. 50.000, - per pair. But since the busy-hectic with parakeets discussion in the media, the birds that have many colors are soaring price in the market to break the Rp. 100,000 per pair. That's the influence of market demand which is influenced by the media which might term marketing today is the formation of the new requirement.
So, my suggestion. Do not terlau affected the media if you want to buy a bird. Having a legitimate bird if you want to be made in the land business. However, maintaining the bird because of pure love still more easily because there must be afraid that the rise and fall of the price of the bird .. :)
