Millet 4,497 Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 Here is a couple of pictures i got of Genghis..ive spent a bit of time watching him today and he is not yet ready to be pulled out..his next two tail feathers either side of his mounting deck's are only half way down which is understandable really..but i thought he would of finished by now with the amount of pigeon/quail/pheasant and rabbit he has been eating..not too worry though it wont be long now.. ..and i cant wait to get him out and making a dent in the native and none native wildlife.. ...i wonder if he can beat his last season's first pulled weight of 2. 8..

Millet 4,497 Posted October 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 Pulled Genghis out of the enclosure today and he hit the scales at 2lb 1 1/2oz which im happy with as he will be down to his hunting weight a bit quicker than last year..i stopped feeding him on all the good food last week and started giving him 4 chick's a day..i will leave him to settle for several day's on the bow in the weathering before i start to offer him some food on the glove which will be small ration's till he come's down to the 1lb 12 1/2oz then i will start doing the recall's with him on the creance and get some picture's up of his progress from then on..
