gnipper 6,543 Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 Wood pigeon or feral? I would have been chucking them in (woodies or culled racers) whole right from day one mate that way when the kits are ready to start on meat at 2/3 weeks its already there for them. Quote Link to post
TOMO 26,810 Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 as gnipper said kits will eat any carcass from 2 week on , whilst there still blind . no need for mince or tinned cat meat Quote Link to post
