Hello to all sifu

I would like to direct my query to Sifu West Wing .

I had seen a number of designs of ventilation holes and been told the reason for ventilation holes was for heat ventilation.

One of the famous blogger in his blog suggested to close all these holes but left one or two open. Can you please share your experience here and please explain the reason.




Thank you

Thank you West Wing. You impressed all of us.

I have just converted a shoplot to a BH. The BH temperature is range from 27.5 to 28.0 all day. Humiditiy is 80%, with all the ventilation holes left open. The BH situated in the town, not windy. I am wondering if I need to let's say close 50% (or 80%) of the VH? I do not on any humidifier.

Glad to see Mr Ben Chai here.

Another query to seek West Wing help. How to keep Aroma last longer in the BH? Is it advisable to keep aroma in bucket and place at the corners?

And also, learn from other ranchers that till Jun is the mating season and therefore there is low increment of bird population for new BH. correct?

Thank you.

Mr Ben, can you please share us your experience handling aroma in BH?

Thank you.

Hi All

At last Sifu West Wing come back to the SSS issue. Alll newbies like me appreciate your kindness to restart the discussion.

I have been searching and reading all necessary materials related to Swiftlet farming except attending seminars. I have tried both N**T aroma and LP and believe me that both have no effects. Only birdshits are necessary in a new BH.

Last post I have asked you related to the ventilation holes and by following what you advice, yes, there is good sign. Very very good sign. I appreciate your kindness and also to Harry who has highlighted this part in his blog.

Location is important as it decides how long you could get back your investment. Design is important and you must understand the flying path of Swiftlets. I finally understand what you mean by " to think like a swiftlet".

It is not good to discredit other blogger but, it is your kindness of Mr Benchai to save our hardearn money spend on misleading products. I have tried them, and prove that Ben chai is right.

Yes, I agree with West Wind.

Swiftlet Farming is only 123 if you understand the theory behind it. There is actually no secret in this industry. Why waste time attending seminar if you don't know the basic knowledge. Sorry I am not referring to Pak Hen's seminar as I do appreciate his effort after reading his blog.

Learning making Aroma, Amonia etc is only an added advantage to your BH. They play as an advertisement tool to promote your BH to birds. However if your BH basic requirement is not there, ie not suitable for birds to stay, and why not you think like a bird, will you stay if you are a bird?

Don't believe in those nosense that good sounds and good aroma helps you to increase your BH population. They are working (they do attract more birds to come) unless your BH's condition is suitable for bids to stay.

No no no, I meant good aroma or sound do work if your BH is suitable for birds to stay. They do attracting birds to come. For newbie, just make sure your BH design is correct before jumping to aroma and sound.

Believe me there is no secret in this industry once you find out the secret. It is only 123. This is from my experience also. Of course I also paid a lot of school fee.

Forget about NT seminar. Useless. Mainly promoting his products. Don't waste $$.

I am sharing the same opinion with a successful farmer who owns more than 12 BH in Malaysia. Most of his BH collecting more than 16kgs -32kgs every mth. So what do you think?

Better spend time watching from CCTV in your BH for birds' reaction. You will learn more than talking to any consultant. No one will share you the secret. Going to school? Any successful BH owing by the Teacher?

My 2 cent opinion and just wish to save newbies' hardearn money as I was one of them.






Any secret? I don't think so. Advance method? Up to you to decide.

No, why should I?

I "look" like him?

Don't worry Chank, I am not James. Don't be afraid of me.

Not everyone who against seminar is your enemy. Don't worry.

Hi

I haven't read this article before. but this is my opinon.

What's the reaction of swiftlet been caught? so far from my pass experience , if wild birds being caught ,90% of them will commit suicide, refuse to eat. If you feed those infant, will they still produce saliva? It is a question mark.
