Just to illustrate my earlier post . This is the stomach contents from the other day , full of wheat . If you have the amount of fallow we have , it doesn’t take long before the food bill starts adding up .

You can but my feeders need to be movable as I move them about and I’ve got about 60 , plus Minolas . They also hoover up the trailed wheat . I’ve tried barbed wire but I feel it puts the pheasants off using them .

You wouldn’t believe the numbers down here in Sussex ...even after a concerted effort to reduce them throughout the county ..

I’ve seen the vids Rich .Do you not have organised culls on same day across the county ,region like we do here in Wilts .Seems to keep numbers in check nicely .Not sure about this year though as nobody wants them .

The trouble you face I guess is that of protected areas where they head when pressured .Here there dosnt seem to be many of those areas and those that don’t allow the cull are very small .

Ive always thought a national cull ,lads willing to go anywhere and relaxing of night shooting laws would of nipped this in the bud years ago but we are where we are with the fallow pest because of jealous sporting rights persons and a seeming lack of knowledge from many people of actually how to control a species . 
The fallow here that were left alone for years locally were small bodied in comparison to what we see now ,a direct correlation to numbers on the ground .

A concerted effort, you’ve been sat in ya shorts sipping cocktails

 

Having seen the numbers first hand I can see why you have so many accidents involving them
