The lack of rabbits can't help get youngsters interested can it, walking round the countryside lugging a box of ferrets and a load of gear round for nothing can't be too exciting for them, I know it's sickening for us who used to catch a few.
My first one was the inside of my wrist and they said it was meant to be a tender place but I barely felt it, the side of my calf was tender and it crippled me trying to lie awkwardly and keep my leg still.
I'll be ok with the local lass thanks mate just need to get it decided on and booked in, some of the birds she's done seem pretty decent to me and her dog portraits are good too.
Looks good mate, I was messaging a local artist recently about getting a goldie done similar but that Instagram irritates me I'd rather speak in person so not got booked in yet.
I think its off a red dimorphic that one but I do have a mix of hens. One of my muling cocks threw quite a few coloured birds so he's getting all the hens next year if he makes it through winter.
