  3. have done 21 days in the past but i think 24 days is nearer my move time
  4. some birds vary so there's no set age to remove them i find if there leaving the nest bowl its time to put a feed pot in as soon as there eating they can be moved at this stage they normally have most of the under wing minus a few feathers to complete the wing i think 24 to 28 days is about average but does differ in strains , but i feel you need to make weaning as stress free on the ybs and best way is to ensure feeding first , then you know there ready to look after themselves
  5. the hardest part of a bird flying is the take off and needs enough uplift to get of the ground , yes i believe muscles wont be strong after the lock up and in order to build muscle the muscles have to damage creating microscopic tears in the muscle which needs protein and calcium to repair , so only thing i can think of is the birds diet needs to be correct to make sure there not too fat before forcing exercise upon them and give plenty of calcium and protein to get them to fitness , the only thing i could think of is these birds have been treated with antibiotics , the antibiotics stop the immune system from working whilst the drug deals with the problem .After a course of antibiotics you should follow up with a probotic my probotic of choice is Live Natural yoghurt , Brewers yeast has every possible vitamin your birds need , and a product im never without
  6. Well done Paul :emoticon-0137-clapping: :emoticon-0137-clapping:
  7. not been funny but muscle problems are usually calcium linked or a lack of b12 can cause cramps i would add some live yoghurt to there feed and brewers yeast , make up there feed one meal a head and give them it , hopefully that should sort you out and e-coli oregio - stim is good

  9. Firstly thank you for trying to help this bird , in order to help you we need the full ring number it will start with the country which is GB THEN THE YEAR , THEN A LETTER then more numbers , then we can help trace the owner , perhaps if you tell us where you are a member maybe be able to collect and look after this bird for you until the owner claims it

  13. had a similar experience other day felt like packing up , but i've since dusted mesen off ready to try a different line of flight , one cock missing all his chest feathers and a hen missing half a wing so 2 out of action before even started , but i understand the frustration , but not having the birds would be far worse but i think i might train a few tumblers off season see how well they home
