wild rover 548 Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Please to see you are doing well, like the silvers, my season has been poor, only reared 8 chicks, lost me good cock, lots of dead in shell and deserting nests, rethink and restock of cocks needed i think. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fireman 10,935 Posted June 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Lots of folks have had a shit year WR,so don't think it's down to your stock,the hen the silvers are out of produced 9 chicks to sticks by this time last year,2 so far this year and my goldies to are down in numbers hatched as well so it's just one of those things mate and to be honest anything produced is a bonus and i wrote the year off as a good one a while ago 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
