for the past few seasons my old birds have gone into a full body moult in early june effectively ending there season,i fly widowhood and the birds are paired early january and rear one round of babies they do not sit a second round before being seperated.birds are flown at home twice a day and trained a couple of 20 miles twice a week.i use naturvit multi vits and vitamin b12 and amino acids weekly,they are fed natural concord and natural depurative,fresh grit and minerals are always avalible.I extend the daylight for a couple of hours during the winter with artifical lights but have been doing this for 15 years and never suffered a problem untill the last two years.any ideas as to why these birds are starting there moult early!!!!!
