Bananas are a favorite food of starlings. Bananas provide a large amount of potassium and starch to help support the digestive and excretory systems.

The bird farm also has a separate area to raise young starlings that are learning to sing. Here, each bird is raised separately in a bird cage. After "graduating", they are transferred to the concentrated cage area to live with the others.

According to Mr. Huy, before each tournament, the preparation stage accounts for 90% of the success. "In big tournaments, hundreds of starlings will compete with each other for 3-5 hours to choose the champion. It is very harsh. So the best preparation will bring the best results," said Mr. Huy.
