“Dear James, there are hundreds of birds came and play everyday for the pass 8 months but not a single nest was built... What is the problem? Can you please help?” This was what Mr. Chan from Kuantan cried.
His farm started operation 8 months ago in a Prime Bird Area. He is new in Swiftlet Farming. Few months after attending a seminar and knowledge learned from close friends he undertakes the construction of his farm by himself with the help of few Indon workers.
He is very unhappy about the result. In fact he told me. James “I am expecting
about 100 -200 nests in the 1st year and now it is already 8 months. I had used all the latest Swiftlet farming equiments in my farm. How come I don’t even see 1 % of what I had expected?".
I was muted but I can’t blame him. This kind of aim ( 100-200 nests 1st year) is very common for newbies in fact the more experiences we are the lower the target we set but not so for newbies.
When the sound was switched on hundred of birds came and play everyday even 8 months later there are still plenty of birds came and play everyday.
Unfortunately there is not even one nest. I replied “I am sure there are birds dropping in your farms. I am sure all the old shits dried up and you see new ones every time”.
Yes James” how did you know? I replied well I have seen and visited this type of farms before. I explained, the birds came and play they also stayed but not for long some how something forced them to abandoned or prevented them from making nests.
I told him there are many reasons for the birds not making nests in your farm. Knowing that hundreds of birds came and play this shows that the farm able to attract birds which is a very positive sign.
What Mr. Chan could do is to find the causes (internally) that affect his farm and rectify them immediately. With many birds came and play everyday I am confident if the problems are solved there would be nests in his farm in 2-3 months time.
Thru our conversation I advised him to look for the causes and teach him how to rectify them.
I advised him to use Love Potion after the rectification works to enhance fast nests grow. He was very happy about it as now there is a direction for him to head. For the past 8 months he was only waiting and don’t know what to do other than crossing his fingers and hopping and wishing for 100-200 nests he had targeted with no basis to support this growth.
Setting a target is easy but achieving it is totally different thing. Often than not I find that the less knowledgeable and less experience farmers would have high expectation on their farm in term of number of nests compared to the more experience farmers. Why is this so?......well that is for you guys to find out…
Two to there months from now I shall be visiting his farm and see the changes and up date the out come on my blog.
Got to go now... having an appointment meeting 4 readers from
Good Farming!

「James，在过去的8個月每天都有数百的燕子來玩，但是未一沒有造窝… 有什么 问题? 請可幫助？」這是從Kuantan的Chan先生说到。 他的燕屋農場在頭等燕子地区 開始操作了8個月。 他在燕屋農場是个新人。 在出席研討會和從朋友获取知識以后, 他在少量的印尼工人幫助下承擔他的燕屋農場建築。 他对結果是非常不愉快的。 实 际上, 他告訴我。 James「我预算100 -200个窝在第1年内，現在已經是8個月。 我在我的燕屋農場使用了所有最新的燕屋产品。為什麼我沒看見1%我期待的呢？"。 我是無言的，但是我不可能責備他。 這种目標 (100-200个窝在第1年内) 作為新人, 實際上是非常共同的, 越多經驗的我們, 目標越是低的, 我們不象新人，但是。 當一开 了聲音, 並且以后每天有数百的燕子仍然來了和每天來玩。 不幸的是沒有一个窝。 我回復了「我肯定在您的燕屋農場有燕子粪。 我肯定有久的糞乾了和您每次有看到 新的燕子粪」。 . . 是的 James您怎麼知道？」 我回復了, 我以前參觀了很多好象 这样的燕屋農場。 我解釋了， 他們有停留在您的燕屋農場， 但是某些事或某些东西防止他們停留甚至放棄他們做窝。 我告訴了他有許多原因燕子不在您的燕屋農場 做窝。 知道您的燕屋農場有吸引数百燕子來了表示您的燕屋農場非常这是好的开始。 Chan先生可能做的是發現起因(內部)影響他的燕屋農場並且立刻矯正他們。 許多燕子 來了，並且每天有來玩, 我確信，如果問題解決了, 燕屋農場在2-3個月肯定有窝。 通过我們的交談, 我勸告他尋找起因和教他如何矯正他們。 在提高快速的窝的整 流工作增長之後，我勸告他用 Love Potion。 因為現在有他的一個方向朝向， 他對 此是非常愉快的。因為过去的8個月他只等待和不知道怎样做, 除了期待和等待 和祝願他预算沒有依據這個发展的100-200個窝之外。 設置目標是容易的， 但是達到它是完全不同的事。我发现通常比较少博學和經驗的屋主會有高期待, 反而多 經驗的屋主比较少。 為什麼如此是這？...... 还是你們自己发现吧… . . 二到三个月后 我會參觀他的燕屋農場，並且會在我的部落格交待。我得去了…現在要見從新加坡的4個讀者…. 並且我晚了… . . 好燕屋農場!
