Water is a very important substance. Both humans and pigeons can survive for a period of time without food. Without water, they will die within a few days. Pigeon body tissue water accounts for about 60% to 70% of body weight. As the saying goes: "It is better to be deprived of food than to be deprived of water." This shows the importance of water.

The water source for pigeons to drink must be clean. The quality of the water directly affects the health of the pigeons. Generally speaking, groundwater is better than surface water, and tap water is better than groundwater. If there is no running water, you can drink groundwater. For the health of pigeons, the water must be drinkable by humans before pigeons can drink it. Requirements for water: Chemical composition indicators of water: the total hardness should not exceed 25 degrees; the hydrogen ion concentration (pH value) of the water should be between 6.5 and 9.5. Any acidic or alkaline water is not suitable for daily drinking by pigeons. Water; the content of other chemical substances should not exceed the specified value. For example, the content of lead shall not exceed 0.1 mg/L, the content of arsenic shall not exceed 0.04 mg/L, the content of fluorine shall not exceed 0.8 mg/L, the content of sodium shall not exceed 45 mg/L, the content of chloride shall not exceed 20 mg/L, and the content of sulfate shall not exceed Not exceeding 150 mg/L, carbon dioxide not exceeding 60 mg/L, and total soluble solid particles not exceeding 300 mg/L. In short, letting your pigeons drink clean water as much as possible is an important measure to ensure the health of your pigeons.
