HOW BREED LIZARDS DOMENICO MUNGIGUERRA – AQUINO (FR) 05.01.2014- Part two




The  awards room

He likes large lizards, well-fleshed, he doesn’t write down the genealogy, having few couples all his birds are related to each other and therefore it is not deemed necessary.  The birds that are small and thin have no place in his breeding team, in fact he asserts, if the lizard does not have a broad chest and back, it will not have enough space for rowings and spangles  and the ground  color does not express itself at its best.

Years ago he added some  birds  of Mr. Fernando Fermi, one of the best Italian breeders of lizard of all time, and has recently added a beautiful lizard of Macchioni, the Italian champion, a  silver non cap cock of 2012. (photo). He has  tried to add other foreign blood but had no benefits.


He begins to breed in mid-February (13 and a half hours of light) and produces the first young in March. The young, after they are  weaned, are placed  in a large aviary outside of about five meters long, two high and 1.50 wide.  The interior has many roosts and  show-cages  where he puts  vegetables or other treats so the youngsters gradually get used to enter without mistrust.

Lazio Regional Championship 2000- Sora (Fr) - Mungiguerra D.

In 2000 he participated  at his  first exhibition, the regional championship of Lazio, held in Sora (Frosinone)  where he won with a  gold hen , he still retains the diploma and the medal won (Photo)

Among the main Show  results : about ten Italian titles, not counting seconds and thirds, 14 best in show,   20  first at Reggio Emilia International Showi, and two second places at the World Show  of Bari in 2014.

Domenico is a conservative, if a food, a procedure, or equipement  is okay, he  continues to use it, he does not change. He feeds his lizard with a mixture  of 4 seeds plus some little  'sunflower. All year he gives   dry soft food,  boiled seeds and when possible , immature seeds of dandelions. In soft food he adds a small amount of yellow dye and a bit 'of spirulina, and one boiled egg every 100 gr.

Some advice: whoever wants to try to breed this race  should inquire about the feed  and the management of breeding but especially the novice should visit as many exhibitions as possible, develop an "eye"for the breed, and then rely on a trustworthy breeder and buy the most beautiful specimens possible.
