The anatomical knowledge of birds and the technical skills of making specimens, but in addition to certain tools and drugs, we should also pay attention to actively observing birds, standing posture, and understanding the size of various parts of birds, which laid the foundation for later specimen shaping.

1。 Necessary tools and medicines

Prepare specimens, tools and medicines, scalpels, tweezers, scissors, brushes, needles, stitched nylon thread, absorbent cotton, gypsum powder, galvanized thread No.1, fillers (cotton, brown, rag or a piece of paper, etc.). ), preservatives (such as arsenic and soap mixed into paste, add a small amount of potassium nitrate), safety blades.

2。 manufacturing technique

1) skinning: the skinning method varies according to the poultry species and production purposes. There are generally three kinds of stripping. It is appropriate to peel off the chest and abdomen of ordinary birds after peeling off the chest and abdomen Before the safety blade (big bird scalpel) is cut from the chest and abdomen, brush the feathers on both sides with water to expose the skin and peel them off along the center of the chest where the keel protrudes. The specific method is to cut the skin part. Then cut the connective tissue between the skin and the meat with a knife. The big bird's fingers support the flesh to separate, and then apply some talcum powder and gypsum powder to avoid adhesion. When the neck and shoulders are exposed, use scissors to cut off the muscle roots and exposed joints on both wings, and then cut the joints. In the process of peeling, if the bleeding flesh is punctured, immediately plug it with cotton and sprinkle gypsum powder. Peel off the joints, muscles and joints of femur and tibia, and separate the cut meat with scissors. Please be especially careful when peeling the tail, and don't pull it hard, so as not to hurt the tail and cloaca hole, so as not to cause down (feather) to fall off and fat to ooze. At this time, only the hands provided by the neck and face are pulled up and turned over. On the other hand, the skin of the neck and the peeled head show a pair of scissors to the skull. When it is cut from the foramen magnum, the cotton wool is temporarily blocked and peeled off in the muscle.

(2) It does not include: removing the bones and muscles of the tibial muscles stuck on both sides, and then excluding the skin to return to the original position.

(3) Picking tendons: one cuts claws with a knife, picks out tendon needles and cuts them.

(4) Head cleaning: distribute the ears cut by the knife tube with the ear tube eye forceps exposed from the head, enlarge the hole, put a pair of scissors on the occipital bone, take out the cotton ball of the intracranial brain, dip it in, and clean it.

(5) Scaffolding: Two scaffolds are specimens made of iron wire. Scaffolding for pre-job comprehensive training for young people needs four or six lines to be successful. A head, a tail, two wings, and the root of the leg. The wings are enlarged by two lines, and the roots are perforated from the wings.

(6) Filling: Generally, small birds are filled with cotton, while large birds can be filled with brown silk or sawdust. Preservatives are pre-filled from the bird's head down, filled with cotton and backfilled. You can install an artificial eye. When the bottom of the implant is painted with the same color, it is more realistic. The artificial eye can restore the head and then install it.

(7) Sewing: The ministries and commissions overlap with the cotton-filled neck and chest skin, and be careful not to damage the feather stitching.

(8) Plastic surgery: Plastic surgery is a very critical step. Plastic surgery should be based on physical objects and adjust the positions of ears, eyes and face. Feathers should be neat and smooth.

9) Treatment: on the wooden frame of the specimen, the wooden frame, mahogany, walnut and root carving painted in the pocket with varnish are more beautiful and generous, which can increase the aesthetic feeling. Then tidy up the wires, fix the birds, and cut off the extra threads.

(10) Preservation: finally, dry it every two days (or one day), then reshape it (mainly feather trimming), then put it in a cabinet, smoke out moth balls, and spray it with disinfectant for disinfection, so that feathers, insects and mites are eliminated and can be preserved for a long time.
