  1. were you pleased at the Colouring John ???
  2. I find its usually the whiter ones go first dam shame but I like the grizzles so hopefully the majority I breed will have very little white on , but every now and again got to have a few whiter ones to keep breeding the grizzles
  3. My preference is full colour to grizzle never grizzle to grizzle as the later will bred near whites = dilute grizzles , I prefer darker fuller coloured grizzles with less white
  4. It all depends on the colour and pattern of the grizzle , but you will get blue bars and chequers and grizzles
  5. lol i think there were 2 good weeks at best lol :emoticon-0136-giggle:
  6. Clocks go back 1 hour Sunday am so the end of British summer time , I hate them changing :emoticon-0179-headbang:
  7. Well to bringing corn back up suggests a digestive problem if wont go down it comes up , so I would isolate the bird clean and disinfect the area this birds been ill , give a charcoal tablet starve 24 hours give only water and another charcoal tablet then feed a light feed with live natural yoghurt , it's my opinion the dropping are only the result of the digestive system stopping working once gut normality is restored the droppings will return to normal , if no change by 3rd day I would canker
  8. Yup seen him before think it's a re-run
  9. to be honest if I have anything ailing 9 times out of 10 it's canker , but I ring the vets book an appointment same day and off I go , only a few miles to Northern Hygiene , I'd rather test and treat straight away for the ailment the bird has rather than treat blind as if you get it wrong you can give the ailment a helping hand to go unchecked at the detriment to the birds health , I look on Chevita for symptoms but my vet knows best , and I know better than to treat for the wrong ailment but nice to get an idea of what your birds are facing or the symptoms of the ailment as the quicker you recognise something is wrong you can act quicker to resolve it I see illness in a flock as a weakness but birds do ail , I generally find 9 times out of 10 if not canker they don't usually pull back and sometimes better to remove the weakest link , your loft is only as strong health wise as your weakest bird . Every garden grows weeds it's your job to remove them
