jesus! that bird is huge!

thats true. but i keep fantails and would like something to watch while im outside. i could get eggs from them and let the fantails sit on the tipplers eggs.

if they knew what birds to take then you know who it was who stole them.

i got 5 tipplers lastnight and im wondering if they would attempt to go back to their old loft? if i keep them in for a week do you think they would be ok to get out? the person i got them from lives quite far from me.

its probably yobs having a "laugh", although its not funny! you should invest in security lights and a camera. they are good deterants

and i got 10 for the price of 6 ;D

ME I like your posts as it sparks debate and ideas, long may they continue i like a good old debate! i think in time all fanciers will get ets.

ok, cheers for the help ;D ;D ;D

i need to make 2 more nest boxes on friday so i will add another box. there is a blue hen that isnt sexualy mature yet. she scarpers at the sight of a cooing cock! its funny to watch

i was thinking of what the youngsters would look like too. i didnt think she would take to him being so young but she has. the blue indian fantail i got from you was a hen...not that i mind cause it only leaves 1 odd cock.

yes. i let the birds choose who they paired with. and thats wat happened. i dont let the grizzle or the black hen out yet. but the rest have been going out since saturday. the brown indian goes far..out of sight most of the time.

its the brown indian thats paired to the grizzle hen.

i start work at 2:30pm on saturday. im off tommorow but dont drive. >

wat you doing on saturday morning?

she is paired up but isnt sitting on eggs or rearing youngsters. there are two windows to the back of the loft and a sputnick on the front. she can see all round the loft.

i think im going to wait till the weather isnt so bad.

i wanted to pair her up with a cock i was given first then let her out. the cock goes out but cant go far due to a broken wing. she wasnt fed when she went back to her old loft.

all those fantails are doing well. got 3 pairs so far. the 2 blacks the grizzle hen with the brown fantail powder blue hen with the red tip cock.

she only lived a 10 minute walk from me.

its just something to watch whilst my fantails are out. im looking to get 2 of them soon...within the week. cheers for replying though.

im thinking of letting my hen out for the second time. she is an 07 late bred. she has once escaped but returned to her old loft. that was over week ago, should i let her out and see if she comes back? she has been in my loft for about 2-3 months now.

im looking for 2 westys or tumblers. if theres anyone in edinburgh that has some for sale or for free let me know. cheers.

looking for 2 young rollers or tumblers in edinburgh.

they were flying in the granton area

it is windy in edinburgh, just that i saw a lot of pigeons circling an area. they looked like they were training.
