Or just get em on one of kens knife making classes and they'll do it to themselves

I'd be a happy man in that room ?
-
I bet scary is an awesome shag

My mate had access to his dad's secret stash of razz mags and there was full frontals of her in there ?
-
Next time the rest are going up throw one of them as high as you can and keep the other 2 in, once you get one flying then add another etc. They get unfit or out of practice and just don't want to get up. If it continues then take it down the road and let it out. If that fails get some ferrets ?

Try lighting a piece of paper under it to see if it draws the smoke.
-
Do the chimneys in the damp rooms work or capped off?
-
I got mine from mercasystems but the stuff I had before was off the old gamekeeper. Know any keepers they will have some knocking around.
-
Good noses haven't they, it makes up for the times when they're being hyper mental destructive twats ?
-
Did you not let bellend have a look at them?
-
I use matrix grit, the rollers loved it. Give them the minerals now and again in their own pot and leave a pot of grit in with them.

As they start to moult out young cocks will get a black tash just above the beak before the blaze has come through. The feathers on their shoulders are blacker in cocks too and like a greeny brown in hens.

Good luck
-
I've never kept note before but I would say 3 to 4 months by the time the head moults out red, its the last thing to moult. Give em plenty of dark greens like dandelion leaves and broccoli etc and they will go red enough. You will need a sulfur drug to stop them going light through the moult, ive found baycox the best and they need a 2 days a month until they finish moulting. Feed them on a decent quality british finch mix.

Its the feathers around the shoulders that they use, the bit under your thumb on the picture. Personally I prefer going off the blaze and whiskers around the beak.

The parents are in my aviary but I'm using fosters in the shed. I'm pretty sure the hen would nest in a breeder though.
-
No that's the raza that's reared them mate.
-
Mixed nest of 2 mules and 2 goldies.
-
They are too full and content. Cut the food back a bit, once a day when they come in from a fly and flag the little buggers up with summat like a landing net.
-
My first round of goldies, this was when they first jumped and they are fully weaned and eating now. I've used feeders to try and boost my numbers but I'm letting the hen sit them herself this time and she's back on 5 eggs now. I've not bred as many mules this year but still got a few to hatch and then I'm done for the year.
-
Wasn't there pictures of them on here before? I think they called them ferret dogs or summat?
-
Bang em on straight wheat.
-
We have lots of 100 yard, 15 -20ft high alder hedges at work as windbreaks to shelter our crops, easier to cut than neat privet and beech etc but still not fun with a petrol hedge cutter. Some of ours are birch and hornbeam which are hard to cut. They get cut every year in autumn when birds have finished nesting.
-
Hedge cutting at this time of year boys ? tut tut tut.
-
Are they kitting together yet or bombing around all over the place?
