Seeing this, Ye Chao said to the boss again: "I want a pair of parrots." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Okay." The boss happily agreed, and he knew that he had met the financier today.
"Uh, that's starling, right?" Ye Chao felt that buying two more starlings would make it more lively for them to learn their tongues.
"Yes, that's Hainan starling." The boss introduced him.
Starlings, native to India, belong to the medium-sized birds. The body color is close to chocolate, the head and neck are black, the body is about 25 cm long, the beak, eye spots, feet and claws are yellow, and white markings can be seen on the wings when flying.
"Hainan starling is a common bird species in Southeast Asia and India. Strong ability to speak, and very clingy, like to perch on the shoulder. Chicks can be fed egg yolks, especially love to eat. ”
"If you want to teach him to speak, it is recommended to start with young birds. Born smart, the cage door needs to be locked, otherwise it will open the door by itself and fly out......" The boss said to Ye Chao very professionally and in detail.
"Well, well, as you say, a pair of young birds." Ye Chao said, in addition, he pointed to a bird not far away and asked him, "What kind of bird is that?" ”
"Oh, this is Brother Wren" The boss noted down a pair of starling chicks again, and happily continued to introduce this bird to Ye Chao.
Wren, with a large body and a purple-blue and copper-green metallic sheen.
It is characterized by orange flesh lobes and flesh coats on the side of the head, similar to male and female. Good chirping, loud and clear, can imitate and produce a variety of melodic tones. It is found in India, Myanmar, Thailand, Indochina and China.
The Wren is black all over, with a purple-black metallic sheen on its head and neck.
The eyes and sides of the head are covered with short black feathers, the central feathers on the top of the head are hard and curly, and the beak of the male adult is well developed; forehead to the top of the head glow black, the side of the head is covered with short black feathers; There are two orange lobes on the back of the head; The lower part of the back of the eyes is partially exposed; The hind neck, shoulders and inner feathers of both wings are brinite-colored; The lower back, waist and upper tail feathers are metallic green; Off-toe foot, with three toes in front and one behind, and the hind toe is equal in length to the middle toe.
Similarly, if you want to teach him to speak, it is recommended to start with young birds. Naturally smart, the cage door needs to be locked, otherwise it will open the door and fly out on its own......" said the boss.
"Oh, that's a pair too...... Juvenile birds. Ye Chao said.
"Okay." The owner happily took note of it.
At this time, Ye Chao and Tang Ru were looking at another parrot, so they took a few steps forward and walked to her side.
"This is a macaw, born in the tropical regions of the Americas......" the boss began to introduce again.
Ye Chao listened carefully, the macaw, born in the tropical regions of the Americas, is the most beautiful and colorful parrot, and it is also the largest parrot, which is a large climbing bird.
It has a total of 6 genera and 17 species.
It has toe feet, each foot has 4 toes, 2 front and 2 back. Parrots of this family have long tails and large, sickle-shaped beaks that can only be compared to cockatoos.
Feed on fruits, eat a large amount, and the powerful beak can peck the nuts open, and the tongue can suck out the pulp. The face is featherless and turns red when excited. Both sexes are similar in appearance. It is a tropical American bird native to forests, especially in the rainforests of Mexico and Central and South America.
The recipe consists of many fruits and flowers and is eaten in large quantities. Build nests in trees and caves on the banks of rivers. It is relatively receptive to human training and can get along with other species of parrots, but can also bite other animals and strangers.
The lifespan is up to 65 years.
Some species can learn to imitate speech with a soft voice. But in many cases it will scream like a wild parrot.
The most interesting thing about the macaw is its face, some of which are covered with stripes, like the flower-faced face in Peking Opera.
Among them, the purple and blue macaw is the largest parrot among them, with a measured body length of 95-100cm. Among them, the crimson macaw has the widest distribution.
Its head and shoulders are bright red, the back half of its dorsal feathers are blue, and the combination of the two colors is yellow. Of the same species, they are the largest, weighing about 1.4 kilograms and measuring about 1 meter long.
This macaw is expensive, so the boss introduced it in more detail.
"Well, if you want to teach him to speak, it is recommended to start raising ...... from young birds" This sentence is again, Ye Chao nodded, and he also wants a pair.
With his current net worth, these are small amounts of money.
After saying that, I went to look at other birds.
"It's a waxbill, it's very cute......" the boss's mouth began to gush again.
The wax-billed finch is a traditional Chinese caged bird species.
This species is androgynous and heterochromic. Medium-sized birds, 17-21 cm in length. Both male and female images are simple and bowable, which is very endearing. The wax-billed finch is one of the birds of home ornamentation and training skills, and it is very valuable.
There are also three types of wax-billed finch: black-headed wax-billed finch, black-tailed wax-billed finch, and tin-billed finch. In addition, there are three types of wax-billed finch, such as spotted-winged, white-winged, and black-winged.
Bold and not very afraid of people, especially in winter, when farmers steal sunflower seeds or dried pine nuts, they do not fly far, and sometimes fly away and return quickly.
However, during the breeding period, it is very secretive and alert, often hiding among dense foliage, and often making a monotonous and low 'hiss-hiss...' sound during its activity, sometimes screaming while flying.
"Two pairs." Ye Chao saw that this kind of bird was pleasing to the eye, and deliberately asked for an extra pair, and the boss happily wrote it down.
Tang Ru was also looking at other varieties of birds, and even recited a Tang poem:
Two yellow orioles sing green willows, and a line of egrets go to the blue sky;
The window contains a thousand autumn snow in Xiling, and the door is berthed in the Dongwu Wanli ship.
It is rare that this woman who has lived overseas for a long time can still understand such a Tang poem, Ye Chao immediately said to the boss: "Huang Li, I want a pair." ”
"Okay." The owner happily took note of it.
Yellow oriole, also known as "yellow warbler", "yellow bird", etc., yellow oriole is a number of medium-sized songbirds, is the common name of 29 species of birds of the genus Oriole in the family Yellow Oriole.
The body feathers are generally made up of all yellow feathers. Male adults have bright yellow and black distributions on their bodies, eyes, wings and tails. Females are dull and greenish. Young birds are greenish and have fine longitudinal stripes on their lower bodies. The oriole is an arboreal bird that rarely moves on the ground and prefers to move in groups, often shuttling in pairs through trees. Their chirps are also particularly catchy.
"That's ...... Want to think of birds? Ye Chao suddenly pointed to a bird and asked the boss.
"Yes, that's a red-billed lovebird." The boss began to introduce again, today's business is good, and he is so happy that he is very energetic.
Red-billed acacia.
Small birds, 13-16 cm in length. The mouth is reddish, the upper body is dark gray-green, the eyes are pale yellow before and around the eyes, and the ear feathers are light gray or olive-gray.
Both wings have yellow and red wing spots, tail forked, black, chin and throat yellow, chest orange-yellow. It mainly feeds on insects such as caterpillars, beetles, and ants, but also eats plant foods such as plant fruits and seeds, and occasionally eats small amounts of crops such as corn.
The red-billed lovebird is widely distributed in China and has a rich population. With its bright plumage and melodious song, it is one of the world's most famous caged ornamental birds.
"Acacia birds, two pairs." Ye Chao said.
"Okay." The owner was pleasant.
"That's the ...... Lark? ”
"Yes, yes, lark, the voice is very crisp......" The boss finished remembering and began to introduce the lark.
The lark is a representative bird of the grassland, belonging to the small songbirds, often singing while flying, because it flies very high, people often only hear its sound, and do not see it.
Larks live in arid mountains, deserts, grasslands or rocks, and live in groups during the non-breeding season, often flying low or running short distances, feeding on insects and grass seeds.
Because of its crisp voice, "Little Lark" has also become synonymous with sweet and beautiful sound. The colors are colorful, there are reds, blues, and so on. The chestnut forehead is characteristic of the male lark, and the head and nape of the neck are the same color as the forehead, and the white and brown coat around the eyebrows and eye sockets are even more beautiful.
Its eyebrows are the most characteristic, and the brow lines grow all the way to the occipital region. The lark's back and waist are predominantly chestnut brown, the outer wings are black-brown, and the tail edge is slightly whitish with a maroon brown predominantly color.
There are two symmetrical stripes of dark spots on the chest, which connect just above the chest. There are white feathers on the forehead and throat, which match the brownish-white coat below the body.
"Two pairs." After Ye Chao listened, he introduced and immediately made a decision.
"Okay, okay." The boss instantly became smiling, thinking that when he met the God of Wealth today, he had never seen him cut the price.
