good on you snowy , brought up the hard way , but the right wayi remember what your old dad had to do to keep you all fed true, but when you were talking about ghosts, i thought there was either a ghost or a burglar in the kitchen about 4am, me being a coward picked up my walking stick and tip toed through, sure enough there was a slight noise, so i flung the door open ,ready with the walking stick,,,,it was my parrot got out and had the kitchen wrecked, youve heard the old one about the paracetamol, well there was a packet lying on the work top and it was true the" paratsetemall," it was none the worse for it, but i bet it never had a sore head for a few days ;D ;D ;D ;D dead true.

YES, FITNESS, CONDITION, AND KEENESS .AND IN MY EXPERIENCE THE DARKNESS SYSTEM IS BEST FOR THIS.[ HAVING TRIED BOTH SYSTEMS]

THE QUESTION I ASKED WAS [ ,AS SAID PREVIOUS] WHAT DANGER TO OTHER "BIRDS" [ MEANING ROOSTING PERIGRINES OFF COURSE]," BUT DANGER TO OTHER BIRDS " HAS BECOME DANGER TO OTHER SPECIES, I HAVE FOUND OUT THROUGH VARIOUS WEBSITES THAT THEY WILL KILL ANY BIRD OF PREY AT ROOSTING TIME, THAT NEST OR ROOST IN THE SAME HABITAT, AS DO PERIGRINES, ANY WAY YOU CAN SEE WHAT YOU MAKE OF THE E MAIL, JIMMY

e mail back from defra,,european wildlife division 1;08 temple quay house 2 the square, temple quay bristol bs1 6eb website www.defra.gov.uk. telephone 0117372 6170 DEAR MR WHITE EAGLE OWLS THANK YOU FOR YOUR E MAIL OF 2 DEC. TO MY COLLEAGUE,MR LAKIN, ABOUT THE STATUS OF EAGLE OWLS IN BRITTAIN. THIS HAS BEEN PASSED ON TO ME FOR REPLY AS THIS DEVISION HAS POLICY RESPNSIBILITY FOR BIRDS DIRECTIVE. I APOLOGISE FOR ANY DELAY IN REPLYING TO YOU. YOU ASKED FOR CLARIFICATION OF WHETHER THE OFFSPRING OF EAGLE OWLS [WHETHER CAPTIVE BRED ESCAPEES OR GENUINE MIGRANTS] CAN BE CONSIDERED AS WILD BIRDS.THERE IS NO EVIDENCE THAT EAGLE OWLS OCCURRED NATURALLY IN BRITTAIN IN RECENT TIMES AND THE SPECIES IS THEREFORE CONSIDERED BY MOST PEOPLE TO BE NON NATIVE. HOWEVER, AS MR LAKIN EXPLAINED,EAGLE OWLS COME WITHIN THE DEFINITION OF "WILD BIRDS" IN THE WILDLIFE AND COUNTRYSIDE ACT 1981" THE ACT". SECTION 1 [6] OF THE ACT EXCLUDES ANY BIRD WHICH CAN BE SHOWN TO HAVE BEEN BRED IN CAPTIVITY, THE PARENT BIRDS MAY THEREFORE NOT PROTECTED IF IT CAN BE SHOWN THAT THEY ARE CAPTIVE BRED ESCAPEES. THE CHICKS OF THESE BIRDS ARE PROTECTED AS THE EGGS WERE LAID WHEN THE PARENTS WERE IN THE WILD , AND THEREFORE WILD BIRDS. YOU ALSO ASKED WHETHER EAGLE OWLS POSED ANY DANGER [TO OTHER SPECIES] .JUST AS OTHER[ NATIVE] BIRDS OF PREY, EAGLE OWLS EAT OTHER ANIMAS, BUT THAT DOES NOT MEAN THEY CAUSE POPULATION DAMAGE. A SCHEME FOR ASSESSING THE RISKS POSED BY ANY NON- NATIVE ORGANISM TO SPECIES,HABITATS OR ECOSYSTEMS IN ALL OR PART OF THE UK HAS BEEN DEVELOPED. IT PROVIDES A STRUCTURED FRAMEWORK FOR EVALUATING THE POTENTIAL FOR ANY NON- NATIVE ORGANISM, WHETHER INTENTUALLY OR UNINTENTUALLY INTRODUCED, TO ENTER, ESTABLISH, SPREAD AND CAUSE SIGNIFICANT IMPACT IN ALL OR PART OF THE UK . THE SCHEME HAS BEEN PUBLISHED IN ITS MOST UP TO DATE VERSION, BUT IT IS INTENDED THAT THIS WILL BE UPDATED IN LINE WITH THE RESULTS OF ADDITIONAL RESEARCH TO TRIAL THE METHODOLOGY, WHICH ARE EXPECTED TO BE COMPLETED LATER THIS YEAR. OUR INTENTION IS TO USE THE RISK ASSESSMENT SCHEME IN THE FUTURE TO PRIORITISE ANY ACTION ON THOSE SPECIES THAT POSE THE HIGHEST RISK. YOURS SINCERELY , CHRISTINE RUMBLE, SPECIES ADVISOR, DEFRA.

YOUR SPOT ON THERE ROSE , A LOT OF CHICKEN, AND PHEASANT PELLETS CONTAIN ANTIBIOTICS [NOT THEM ALL BUT MOST OF THEM] AND IF EVER I DID FEED PELLETS IWOULD MAKE SURE THEY GOT HARD CORN AS WELL, AS THE GIZARD [uSED FOR MASTICATING THE GRAIN] WOULD BECOME REDUNDANT, BUT THERE ARE MANY GOOD PIGEON PELLETS ON THE MARKET THAT CONTAIN LOTS OF VITS AD FISH OILS, [ ;D ;D ;D IM JUST AWAY TO BOIL A HADOCK FOR THE BIRDS ;D ;D ;D]

i would say having won well enough in the centre of the fed [no advantage position or wind ]and won most averages in a big radius club flying at the almost furthest n, s.. e,, w,,positions, at one time or other, and scored well enough in nationals giving 60 miles away sometimes[ inc 2nd nat[if your pigeons spot on you can do it. but ,,,,there has to be favourites in loft position and wind.

beans are a great scource of protein and are quite cheap, but i beleive there are good beans and bad beans, depending on the harvest, and the way they are stored, ideal for the moult , feeding ybs and distance birds , even sprint birds can easily be kept fit on beans, if worked well, but i would preffer to add a lighter mix for them, thats why i fed on the floor and in the boxes, for a variety of reasons, as my distance birds and my sprint birds were in the same loft

tricho. organisms may also enter through the body through the unhealed naval of squabs. in this form necrotic tumour like swellings occur under the skin ,adjacent to the naval, lesions can spread to various internal organs,particularly the liver

i used do the same as you wings, i had a few show racers in a wee loft and aviary, i only bred about 4 for a bit interest in the winter, but they were handy for floating eggs off the best racers
