How to get young and old interested in any sport
phelo84 replied to DOVEScot's topic in Notice Board
i got interested by accident a bird landed in my yard with boken leg strapped up to matches to its leg for 2 weeks sortoed and it stayed with us until the sparowhawk attacked and i missed the little fellow so i then decided to build a small loft and get myself a few birds -
thats what i thought was asking to make sure
-

i dont just leave it i empty it everyday and fill it back up with fresh water they i have also just got the a bath bowl was told that they enjoy that, and seems that they do
-
I have other nest boxes they can go in, there is always a fresh supply of water i got a water feeder from my uncle who used to breed budgies it has a large container so the supply is constant, will they use the other boxes and what about the young they have now will they still look after them
-
will do all this advice is much appreciated i should have done more research before getting any birds didn't realise how much there was to know and learn but i am enjoying them with my sons i cant wait to get the other loft up and get a kit of birds flying i am then going to look into getting a few racers and maybe join our nearest club will take 1 step at a time for now
