Now that the 2012 season is behind us, and the majority of fanciers will have done or planning to split up their pairs. I have just finished splitting my birds up, and all hens will now be confined to the lofts, until due to be paired up next year, the cocks may get their freedom at weekends. Do you allow your birds to fly out over the winter months, or do you confine them to the loft? Thank You
