wadec

comel2 blaka..tp mcm geli sket la yg babies tu..sbb xde bulu lagik.

HoneyD

hi sume..

honey n hubby nak bela owl. ada kawan nak kasi. owl tu hubby's fren baru dpt dari hutan, kecik lagi la.. size lebih kurang bapak gagak. setahu honey, owl ni byk jenis tp kite still taktau yg ni jenis ape.

based on my understanding, owl ni makan daging (tikus, ular n etc).. tp takkan la kite nak cari bende2 camtu utk feed owl kan? bley ke kite bagi dier daging yg dah dipotong2 kecik (cth daging lembu, ayam, ikan, hati). erm.. nak kene ade lesen ke bela owl ni?

lagi satu, penah dgr org cakap negative thing psl owl ni (superstitious thing like suwey n etc). betul ke? nak tau gak coz me teruja la pulak bile tgk owl tu..

wiranordin

pasal makanan tak tahu nak komen
pasal negative thing nie bole la komen sket2

base on my nenek story, ada a few binatang yg tak elok di bela (dont blame her,she's nenek what)antara yg wira tau is tikus,kura-kura, dan ular.
tapi nowadays rasanya org tak pakai lagi petua tue..tikur pun satu famili dgn hamster what..kura-kura pun satu spesies dgn tuntung what.ular plak reptile yg seangkatan(bukan sefamily) dengan iguana kan
rasanya tak jadi masalah

pasal burung hantu plak,org melayu je yg kata mcm tue.tapi kat barat diaorg sanjung old nie..katanya menunjukkan gambaran kebijaksanaan dan kecerdikan.kire kalo kite kat malaysia nie sang kancil la
kalo kat kampung wira,petani bela burung hantu utk makan tikus kat sawah pagi..org panggil biopestisid kalo tak salah.
takde timbul isu suwey or whatever.maybe sebab muka dia sedikit menakutkan.lagipun dia bole pusing kepada dia 360 degree..mesti cute kan..old nie pulak muka dia nak seakan-akan pungguk.ntah2 yg u jumpa tue pungguk tak?
my nenek petua utk bezakan pungguk dgn old is,kalo time bulan mengambang,pungguk akan mcm happy je sebab bulan yg dirinduinya muncul.

HoneyD

owh ye ke camtu nak bezekan pungguk ngan owl? rasenye bulan skang ni tgh mengambang.. nak kene tgk ni!

yg takut tu coz dgr org kate suwey la, malaikat tak masuk rumah la.. pelik2 sungguh.. im not being superstitious tp at least nak gak tau ape lagi "mitos" owl ni..

me mmg curious nak tau bab pemakanan.. coz for me, klau nak bela, biar la bela btul2.. owh ye, td my fren informed yg owl tu beyak kuar anak burung.. i mean dah reput n tinggal tulang2 la.. biasenyer owl ni mcm ular gak ke? dah kenyang dier tak makan2 smpai la nnt dier lapar balik?

HoneyD

ler.. takde sape2 lagi yg tau ke psl owl ni?? nampaknye mostly suke kucing jek.. isk

wiranordin

ala..jgn la gini
takpe2..i layan u
tadi check dlm web site
org jarang wat pet binatang nie kecuali kalo wat persembahan atau utk tujuan komersil
lagi satu,dia makan daging dan kalo tempat tue je dia bole cari makan,contohnya kite provide dia makan,so tak payah kurung lagi
dia akan kenal kite dan datang bile nak makan je
pastu,dia x suka dibelai.tapi bole di ajar utk suka
ada jugak yg cabut bulu pepepah dia supaya tak bole terbang..
brapa umur owl u?

HoneyD

tak sure la wira umur dier brape.. tp kategori kecik lagi ni. coz me dah bawak balik umah n letak depan rumah. kata org, tgh2 malam biasenye dier bunyi. me n hubby excited gak nak dgr bunyi dier tp dier malu / takut agaknye.. langsung tak bersuara..

ade apek cina pet shop ckp, owl ni makan ikan kembung. mlm tadi hubby beli ikan kembung tp dier tak makan pun.. saya igt balik keje nnt nak beli ikan kecik2 yg biase org bagi kelisa makan tu.. nak letak dlm bekas air dier. agak2 dier makan tak? mane la tau, owl ni selera tinggi tanak makan yg dah mati, nak makan yg fresh2..

HoneyD

owh ye.. website yg awak tgk tu, ada tulis tak dier bagi owl ni makan ape?

sapa2 dapat bantu honey..nanti saya bagi ganjaran

10.  It's not very easy to take a vacation...after all, you can't just take an owl with you!  And if you leave the owl at home, who's going to feed it and take care of it?  If it's strongly attached to you (which most human-imprinted owls will be), your absence will be hard on the bird, and it will let you know it when you return.  Owls don't like change, so don't expect that you can just give your owl to someone else if you don't like it--that would be VERY hard on the owl.

9.  Owls can be really hard on knick-knacks and woodwork.  They have a natural instinct to "kill" things and then tear them up.  This leads to shredded and broken knick-knacks, torn-up towels and socks, unstuffed stuffed animals, and just about anything else you can think of (and many things you wouldn't have ever thought of!)  Anything wooden that an owl perches on will have its finish removed bit by bit over the years just from the normal gentle pressure of the talons.  This does nothing to increase the value of your home!

8.  Mating season involves a lot of all-night racket!  Are you willing to put up with the all-night hooting or tooting of an owl during mating season?  If it's a human-imprinted owl, all that noise will likely be directed at YOU.  Alice the Great Horned Owl EXPECTS me to hoot with her every night during mating season.  If I don't, I REALLY get hooted at!

7.  Owls don't like to be petted and cuddled.  You have to do things on their terms, and traditional "petting" doesn't fit into the owl scheme of things.  If you want an animal you can pet and cuddle, get a cat or a dog.

6.  Owls do like to play, but their play can be rough.  Remember, a human-imprinted owl is going to consider you one of its own kind, and will look to you for all its companionship needs, including play.  Try playing with something that has eight sharp talons and a sharp beak and you have a recipe for a lot of cuts, bruises and scratches, even though they are unintentional on the owl's part.

5.  Poop, poop, and more poop!  Owls can't be litter trained, so they just poop wherever they happen to be.  Even if you have a large amount of your house covered with floor protectors (like we do), there is still a heck of a lot of cleaning to be done on a very regular basis.  Even if you clean it up every day you're still likely to step in some poop in the middle of the night when you get up to go to the bathroom.  Whether you're wearing shoes, socks, or are barefoot, I can attest to the fact that it's gross no matter how you step in it!  Then there's ceca.  Owls have two dead-end sacs at the end of their intestines called ceca.  They empty these sacs once per day, and it comes out as a hideously smelly, brown, tarry poop that stains terribly.  I'm not exaggerating here.

4.  Feathers and pellets show up in the darndest places.  Owls molt nearly all of their feathers every year.  That's thousands of feathers.  If you think you can keep them all cleaned up, you're dreaming!  We even get feathers in our furnace filter.  If you've never stepped on a vertebra with bare feet you won't fully appreciate the pellet situation either.  Owls throw up their pellet of fur and bones once each day, wherever they happen to be.  They smell and are covered with mucous when they first come out.  Some pellets have very little fur and basically come out as an unformed pile of bones.  Try keeping those cleaned up!

3.  FOOD!  First of all, you need a steady stream of whole, adult animals to feed an owl.  Where will you get them?  How expensive will they be?  Then you have to commit part of your freezer (or a whole freezer) to storage of these dead animals.  Then you get to thaw one out every night the rest of your life (or for as long as you have an owl.)  For many owls (like Alice) you have to cut them open and remove the stomach, intestines, and liver.  If you don't you'll find yourself peeling intestines off the floor and walls of your home.  Then there are the leftovers...owls have an instinct to cache, or hide, their leftover food.  Sometimes it's difficult to find the caches and you have to wait a few days until it starts stinking to find it.  You think I'm kidding???

.  You can't just put an owl in an outdoor pen and ignore it most of the time.  Many captive owls are imprinted on humans (think they are humans), so they will want (and demand) human attention.  If they don't get it, they may sit out there and do begging calls until they get the attention they are after.  They also need to be flown regularly for exercise (if they aren't permanently injured.)  This takes time and training.

1.  You need to know a lot about owls before you get one.  You need to know things like what types of perching surfaces they need to avoid chances of foot infections, which foods to avoid feeding them, how to tell when they are sick (plus you need a veterinarian who knows how to care for owls), what type of regular maintenance needs to be done on talons and beaks, and a million other things.  There is a lot to know since you're 100% responsible for every need of a captive owl.

Owl Food: What do Owls eat? Owls are Birds of Prey, which means that they must kill other animals to survive. Their diet includes invertebrates (such as insects, spiders, earthworms, snails and crabs), fish, reptiles, amphibians, birds and small mammals.

The main food largely depends on the species of Owl. For example, Scops and Screech Owls feed on insects mostly, while Barn Owls eat mainly mice, shrews and voles. Larger Owls such as the Eagle Owl will prey upon hares, young foxes and birds up to the size of ducks and gamebirds. Some species have specialised in fishing, such as the Asian Fish Owls and African Fishing Owls. Although certain species have these preferences for food type, most owls are opportunistic, and will take whatever prey is available in the area.
