Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of squab feeding equipment, in particular to automatic squab feeding equipment. Background Art
[0002] In the traditional method, squabs are raised by their parents (parent pigeons) through regurgitation of pigeon milk until they are about one month old. However, parent pigeon feeding has three major disadvantages: first, it is impossible to prevent vertically transmitted diseases (such as white diarrhea, etc.) from spreading among squabs; second, the production performance of squabs is affected by the feeding ability of the parent pigeons, and the production performance of the squabs cannot be accurately evaluated; and parent pigeons feeding squabs will also hatch pigeon eggs, which puts too much burden on the parent pigeons' bodies and affects the overall health of the pigeon flock. Therefore, artificial feeding is needed instead of parent feeding, and artificial feeding equipment is needed to solve this problem. The existing artificial feeding equipment mainly uses an air pump to deliver artificial pigeon milk to the squab crop, which can easily cause cystitis and affect the market rate of squabs. At the same time, it is also difficult to control the amount of food consumed by each squab, and some squabs are prone to overfeeding, which further causes some artificial pigeon milk to be wasted.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a kind of automatic feeding device for squab to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
