  17. you would need to obtain a certificate of health from a defra approved vet
  18. leave enough gap for your deep litter , but thats aload of crap no damp on my floors thats where air comes in at floor level as the air passes over it drys the droppings up and removes stale air at the top at roof level , thats the whole principle of of ventilation
  19. condition of feather on a bird is as important as the bird having good balance , then i look at the second wing which should sit tight , as you say Cloudview the Dordins have very strong feathers and very hard to break or snap and seem to be beter structured than the adverage strain and slightly wider in diameter of the quill but keeping the weight the same , good Dordins are very well balanced , great birds , so i agree feathering is an important factor when buying birds
  20. no idea but they also want the rubber rule changing as can clock as many birds as your pad allows up to 6 bird fields so surely this rule should be changed also
