good idea m8

well done tam and martin still to see west sect winners name in black white only hear say so far

youre right bill i have 60 ob 20 late breds i think i will need them but still got eleven firsts among them but that means nothing

if you start training your yb from the east they will break from the east all there life so if you live in the west your beat before you start fact

bill a cat detector should allways be faceing the loft so it is going off when youre birds are flying up and down and breaking the beam the chance of one cat breaking the beam all the time it comes in youre garden is no good and it only makes anoise for a few seconds where with the birds taking off and landing all the time the noise is consistant and the cats stayaway leave it on 24 7 mines has not been switcht off for ten years cats dont come near when my birds are out got mine from body ridewood

yer da must have tellt ye about it del youre to young tae mind that ha ha

i a know ma stuff lol good luck

andy put the pair in the young bird section if its empty put a board against the wall for them to nest behind next pair should be full older cocks get bullied and dont tread the hen enough i have 15 16 17 year old cocks neaver missed an egg because they have there own small sections

i fed lots of barley years ago i was getting it for nowt off am8 the birds were never to heavy and in good nick but got very dry in the feather so now i put a little codliver oil on it worked fine

i have been storing eggs for years with great sucess i read up on poultry breeding then trial and error from 20 eggs stored i have 100 sucess up to 4 weeks 98 per cent up to 6 weeks this is how i do it as soon as 1st egg is layed lift it and put a dummy in the nest mark the egg with felt tip pen pair no 1 keep note book of who pair no 1 is put egg into a box i use the egg boxes you get at shop for six eggs mark in your book date layed lift 2nd egg put in another dummy mark egg and put in box pack box with tishue paper or soft cloth to take up space between the eggs and top of box eggs should be on there side this way you just turn the box over every day and youre turning 6 eggs at a time or use a bigger box for more choc boxes with lots of compartments can be used as long as there high enough now do not put them in the fridge it chills them and will kill them keep them at room temp mines go on top of a wardrobe and turn the box over every day or the youk will sink to the bottom and stick to the shell and will not hatch dont worry if you forget to turn them an odd time as long as its not longer than 4or5 days they will be ok but one thing you must do is use a fine spray or a teaspoon of water onto the tishue paper once a week or the eggs will dry out then put them under your feeders starting with the eggs you lifted first and thats all there is to it
