Chapter 524 Feeding the Baby Birds (2)
Another month passed quickly, and the two baby birds had grown fluff that covered their entire bodies. One was yellow and black, and the other was a mixture of gray, brown and black. Their appearance was still relatively low, but much better than at the beginning. They could be described as ugly-cute.
Now they are almost 50 kilograms in size, and it is almost time to separate them into different nests.
The calls also changed from the tender chirping sounds at the beginning to hoarse cawing and chattering sounds, which were honestly very unpleasant to the ears.
However, these changes are child's play. The biggest and most annoying thing for Lido is that less than a month after they opened their eyes, the two little guys went from fighting with each other in the nest to learning to escape from the nest. It only took them a day or two to learn to run on the ground with their legs and peck everywhere with their mouths.
The key is that they often chase each other, poop in the house from time to time, and then flap their wings (which have not yet fully grown) and jump around in the house, making the house a mess.
Although she admired the athletic ability of the two little guys, Lido felt that it was necessary to discipline them.
And to say they are little ones is just based on their birth age. In terms of size and weight, these two guys are already big guys! If they are not disciplined, they will blow the roof off!
Lido named them. The golden bird was called Gale, because although it had affinity with water magic elements, its affinity with wind magic elements was actually not low either. It should be said that its affinity with wind magic elements slightly prevailed, which was considered a combination of the genetic factors of both parents.
The black bird was named Jianyu. It obviously inherited more genes from the fish eagle. Its affinity with water magic elements is very high, while its affinity with wind is very small. It can be said that the genetic factors of the bald eagle are completely suppressed. This also shows that in terms of innate qualifications, the fish eagle is much stronger than the bald eagle.
I have to say that the reason why Ji Feng was able to develop wind affinity is thanks to Lido placing the mother ore bead next to the two eggs during hatching. Otherwise, if hatched normally, Ji Feng would have been much worse than Jian Yu because he did not have the required energy innately.
Now the two mother ore beads have been made into necklace pendants by Liduo and tied around the necks of Ji Feng and Jian Yu respectively.
Ji Feng and Jian Yu seemed to know that this was a good thing that was extremely beneficial to them, so they did not peck it off just because there was a foreign object hanging on their necks.
It is precisely because of Lido's abundant supply of half-monster meat and constant nourishment from the mother ore beads that Gale and Sword Rain grow so fast.
It took Lido several days to get the two little ones used to her name, but now they basically come whenever she calls.
After growing down covering their bodies, they are unwilling to stay in the bird's nest all the time. Even though it is snowing season and water freezes, it cannot stop them from yearning to go outside the bird's nest. However, they seem to be more resistant to cold than Lido expected, and don't seem to care about the temperature of dozens of degrees below zero at all.
Seeing that they were not afraid of the cold, Lido began to train them not to poop in the house.
Lido designated a place in the yard as a place for them to poop, dumped the bird droppings swept out of the house there, then pointed at the place and told them that they could only poop here from now on.
Not only did Lido express it with words, she also used the technique of mental communication to make the two little guys more clear about what she meant.
Although the intelligence level of the two little guys is currently unknown and we don't know how effective this approach will be, but if we try a few more times, we will be able to instill this concept in them.
Lido didn't expect to achieve success all at once; it was always a gradual process.
On the first day, Ji Feng and Jian Yu obviously had no idea about pooping outside the house, but Lido kept an eye on them. Once she found anyone showing signs of pooping, she would immediately catch it and move it to the pooping place outside the house. Each of them was caught by Lido at least five times.
In this way, Lido finally made them have the concept of a place to poop in their minds.
The next day, Lido no longer forced the two little guys to poop outside, but whoever pooped inside the house would be hit by Lido. The one who pooped in the right place outside the house would be praised and caressed by Lido, and rewarded with a piece of marinated beef.
This process lasted for three days, and in stark contrast, the two little guys quickly learned to poop in the designated place outside the house.
When both little ones learned to poop outside the house, Lido stopped giving them extra rewards and only kept the method of beating anyone who pooped inside the house.
In this way, they finally developed the habit of not pooping in the house.
Then there was the problem of them chasing and playing around in the house. Seeing that they could persist in the snow outside, Lido simply swept them out of the house and let them play around in the yard on their own.
The yard is naturally much more spacious and open than the house, and it allows the two little guys more room to move around, so except for being a little uncomfortable with the cold outside at first, they soon fell in love with chasing and playing in the yard.
At this time, Lido also separated the two bird nests for them. The two bird nests were exactly the same, making them equally divided.
However, they are two young birds that have just hatched and are less than two months old. The time they can survive in the snow is always limited, so they usually go into the house and lie in their nest to rest and keep warm after playing in the yard for a while.
With the presence of tinderstone and cotton, they can quickly warm up your body that has become cold from activities outdoors.
Now, when they eat meat, Lido doesn't have to tear it into strips. She just puts a large piece of meat into a bowl for each of them and lets them tear it apart and eat it with their mouths. The leftovers can be saved for the next meal.
In this way, Lido's feeding work became easy. She kept the door open during the day, threw a piece of marbled beef into the food bowls of the two little guys every morning, which was enough for their daily food, and then she meditated quietly.
Ji Feng and Jian Yu became more and more obedient day by day. They ate meat consciously every day, went outside to defecate, played and exercised in the yard, and returned to the bird's nest to keep warm and rest. Sometimes they did not go outside to play, but quietly snuggled up to Li Duo, accompanying Li Duo in practicing.
As the snowy season passed, Liduo stayed in the small courtyard of Qingyan City with the two little guys, except for occasionally going to the meteorite crater to retrieve the perfect artificial large spiritual stone, and occasionally catching an aquatic monster to eat.
The growth of Jifeng and Jianyu is also changing every day. After the snow season is over, they should be able to replace Fluffy and learn to fly. Lido is looking forward to it.
