so a few more things to look out for besides slugs eh Owen ? . i am suprised at spiders being a threat , have always looked on them as a foe ,webs trapping flies , moths etc ?
if you had 16 cocks and 1 hen left after the youngbird season , "what would you do"? .perhaps give 15 young cocks away ? race rgardless , dont worry about a balance of numbers , and very good luck
