right lads and ladys.i need a bit of info...i run a small shoot of around 1000 acres,the shoot consists of 2 flight ponds,which are the main attraction,holding a good percentage of mallard and teal,we have a few wild pheasants also from the last owners of the shoot,there are still pheasant pens on the shoot but are in desperate need of repair,but thats not a problem,we are considering on trying a few pheasants next year.not a great deal,maybe three to five hundred to see how it goes,my question is,poults or ex layers,some say to say hello to an ex layer as you put it down as you may never see
