    do you find the dropping collect and stick to the grids? mine were directly under the box's and i found the dropping stuck to the sides of the wooden grids due to them being regular i moved me grids back 8 inches and just scrape under the box's
  12. distance birds can start to score at 4 years old, sprint up to 2 year olds
  13. i think it clear there may be a little oil on the birds which will be gone in a day or so , but the birds look in first class condition to me,
  14. i notice wild birds take berry's , and was told during the moult a berry juice (not to strong) helps the plumage
