While on my way to Sabak Bernam, Selangor, stop to visit a sick Birdhouse in Ayer Tawar, Perak.
A small town about 10 minutes drive to Setiawan Perak.
The owner was delighted that I arrived on time from Bukit Mertajam, Penang. I started about 12.00 noon and wanted to see some action in the evening.
The moment I arrived, after a cup of black coffee, the owner took me to view the back entrance hole and after that onto the BH.
The house was put into operation mode about 12 long months and there were not a single nest.
I can see some bird shit spots on the floor but I am not sure if those shits were those from some months ago.
Hmm.... after a close look at the design and the problems laid by the initial "Consultant" I showed the owner all the faults that were not right.
He shook his head a couple of times and understand what I mean. He jot down what I said but to make my points, I came out with a 30 little observations that I wanted him to act.
The number of entrance holes, the dimension of the hole, the arrangement of the tweeters, the color of the dog kennel, the rubbish on the floor, the humidifier usage, the nesting planks, the temperature of the BH and so forth.
I am sure he will be pretty busy for the next few days before his flight back to London.
Anyway, before we settle for the day's work, I took out my Black cloud plus the "Passionate Hormone" to give a short try before shutting the house down.
We set at the back of the BH and enjoy the activities resulted.
He was impressed with the number of birds jumping into the entrance hole.
He could not believed at first but I told him the house need to be placed in ICU for a few months.
I told him not to worry about the outcome.
Just take my word and it will be well taken care of.
Follow my recommendations and he will be on the right track.
After dinner rush to Sabak Bernam. Mr Hilmi of JPBD have a room for me to stay. Tomorrow he insisted that I give a 45 minutes talk to all the participants of a Forum conducted by JPBD Selangor.
What a marvellous day and hope everything will be okay.....
Edible Birdnest farming can be considered an ideal, most exciting and a very lucrative business. This venture is suitable for those who live in parts of Cambodia, Southern Thailand, Burma, Malaysia, Vietnam, the Philippine and Indonesia. This blog is dedicated to my findings, crazy ideas, encounters with newbies, comments from friends, local news, pictures relevant to Birdnest plus my personal experiences and knowledge gained in swiftlet farming.

Merry Chrismas To All Christians Blog Readers !!!
I do not want to forget wishing all my Christian blog reader "Merry Chrismas and Happy new Year."
May success in swiftlet farming brings lots of happiness and cheerfulness to your beloved family.
I am not still in BM waiting to start the sound system's installation.
This morning HjA of Ayer Tawar, Setiawan, Perak drop by for a visit and showed him the new BH.
He started his stories on how he got into BH about 5 years ago.
He wanted to go into plantation (rubber and palm oil) how ever his was asked to consider swiftlet farming. The inputs he received was that swiftlet farming was cheaper to enter and the returns is superior then those plantation.
He never looked back except that he regretted for not learning more before getting involved. He was very lucky that the "Sifu" who helped him was an experience guy and he did nearly everything. Got back the keys when his BH was pretty occupied by those birds.
The nest population keep climbing until it reached a climax of 200 nests. Suddenly it stop.
"Harry I need some advise. I have this three stories BH in Ayer Tawar and now, after having about 200 nests, it stops multiplying. Can U be kind enough to visit and advise me what to do?"
During one of my trip back to KL from SP I detoured to Ayer Tawar and visited the BH. After a short review came out with all the necessary things to do and emailed to HjA. I also installed my Black Cloud sound.
As for the fee, I told him to donate to the nearest mosque.
He indicated that after following my advise, the room temperature drops to a reasonable level and the birds are coming back. He wanted to install more tweeters during this coming holidays.
Today he thank me again and would like to built a few more units.
I explained to him where he should consider buying those agri lands. Choose those Malay reserve lands, since he is a Malay, and I am sure there are lots of birds there.
I hope he will come back for more advises.
