The reproducers come mainly from German and Austrian breeding centers.
I select the best subjects for falconry indipendently of their plumage and size. All my reproducers have been trained for falconry in order to find out all their best hunting qualities.
I like to keep in touch with all the owners of my young subjects to know their training and growth. In this way I become acquainted with my blood lines from a hunting and temperamental point of view.
The females brood the eggs and breed their chicks to avoid imprinting. All my subjects have been tested with the DNA fingerprinting technique. The youngs are tested as well.
I am a member of FOI (Italian Ornithological Federation), therefore my young subjects are marked with FOI rings and supplied with the CITES certificate.
I use a system of artificial insemination which is cooperative and spontaneous with the reproducers.
All my females are imprinted and accept artificial insemination naturally, with no compulsion.
The tiercels are imprinted and copulate spontaneously on my fist.
