another quicky,had half an hour earlyer the female could of been following on better but shes still high,wprked through some woodland and pushed a few rabbits had a really good uphill flight on one but missed it to a warren,then worked a small corner of a wood,put kiera up a tree and worked the viz through,as lil was picking up some scent a rabbit bolted out the back door kiera was away the rabbit had a 30 yrd start through cover and headed for a warren on the bank,kiera was onto it and cleanly hit it straight on the back of the head,as i made in the cow footed me again and i despatched the rabbit and let her feed up,slowly getting there bloody wethers a bugger for keeping weight on at the moment itl be a few days again now before we can hunt!!!

Excellent photos gary, what weight does she hunt at, and how much did she weigh after you fed her up on that rabbit. I normally allow my fella about 100g if I'm letting him feed up on a kill, I don't feed him up unless I know I'm not getting out the day, I'd say 100g is a full crop for my male.

cheers fletch,at the moment shes been goin out at 2lb1 1/2 oz shes killing at thet but not following well enough,she was a 1lb 15oz bird last year but we had a bad season with myxy and a few setbacks so really ive decided to give her a good start,letting her have a few good single kills for her confidence, aim to drop her a bit more but this wether is hard for keeping the weight on,it l all come together good tho im sure!!!!

 

my male is yet to come out of the mews as hes not finished moulting this year,got a few primarys and secondarys left all his decks have come through,so wont be long before i ahve him out.....
