    agree with frann and baw thats when boxing was exciting, ITV sat night boxing the whole family used to sit around watching, it was brilliant watching the build up to these fights and the fights themselves, Tyson was about the same time as well, can anyone remember the fight, it was either eubank or benn fighting an american, brutal fight and I think the american ended up permanently in a wheelchair ???

    definately going to get a book on the herbal medicine mate, I'm finding some of it fascinating, stuff people used before modern medicine was available, I was thinking the day how when I was a bairn I would to be rummaging about the hedgerows, raiding nests, ferreting etc and here I am 30 + years later and I'm still to be found in the bushes cheers mate

    thanks very much Pete must admit its took me a while today but I have been researching wildfoods for a few weeks now, although I've kept birds most of my life I never got into the wildfood side untill recently, very interesting some of it to, I might start eating some of the stuff myself self medicating in the hedgerows cheers

    OP - yes you're right mate, I thought myself a bit info of when and what parts to feed would make the post, also what the plant contains etc and how it may influence birds health not sure how it would affect horses though, but you can make your own mind up and maybe experiment Fireman- you're pretty much spot on mate Giro- hang some dead animals above the aviaries I have a bit time on my hands because I, m stuck in the house fxcked with the cauld so I,ll do a bit editing today and add more as I go thanks

    Some of the wildfoods which folks can give there birds. I reckon theres nothing better you can give your birds as far as keeping them healthy and in condition, I,ll try my best to give times of year to collect, what part of plants to use and properties of each plant, some descriptions will have ??? as I am unfamiliar with these plants myself but there is some reference of people using these for there birds.Many references to properties and health benefits are from herbal medicine and there effects on human biology but imo will benefit birds in similar ways. Apart from the goodness gained from

    Probably colour fed I would think mate, I've been thinking about this, if your birds are fed wildfood which in theory should help colour them red you may not need to use corophyl etc, maybe foods such as red berrys etc, couple this with them being kept in an outside flight, just a thought it is a cracking wee bird though

  18. KittleRox

    one of the best things about breeding birds mate I think is seeing whats going to appear in the nest, what makes it exciting, sometimes its better if you know fxxkall about genetics

    So that's why on a pairing i did of Normal split cock x lutino hen,the only normal was a hen down from the dominant cock colour and the other were mixed sex lutino's?. Might be working a bit of it out here millet . and you could also produce normal cocks from that pairing
