      hiya mate sorry didnt reply sooner ive just read your comment, just any basic tips for getting him to feed off the glove, i gt him 2 weeks ago off a lad who hadnt bothered with him, hes 26 weeks old and weighs 1lb 9oz ive got him used to being on the glove and i can stroke him/ examine him now and he seems comfy with me, but i just cant seem to be able to get him to take food from the glove?

    yea ive been writing his weight down since i got him last weekend, when i got him he was 1lb 11oz now hes 1lb 9oz, hes big for a male but i dont want him dropping to much weight, i spoke to a guy the other day and he said he should fly at 1lb 6oz?? do you have any other tips for a beginner?

    so if he doesnt feed off the glove dont feed him at all?

    cheers for that mate, but he wont take anything off me when hes on the glove? and then ill leave the food on his perch so he cant see me doing it then put him down and he eats??

    Hi everyone im relatively new to keeping raptors so excuse any silly comments, just want some advice on feeding /training, i have a 26 week old male harris who, from his previous owner, has had no training so im starting from new, most of the places i try and get info from, i.e internet and books, contradict each other, are you supposed to feed from the glove once the bird trusts you or should this be avoided and get the bird to fly away toward the food? any advice will be greatfully recieved
