have a very simelar problem m8 since my dad died 8 weeks ago I have had to build a loft at mine , let the birds rear the young birds from the eggs they were sitting on , so to date I have 24 yb shifted 11 still to come over, moved 16 hens today, will bring the rest over the next week , then re pair here , then try and break them all so no old bird racing this year but hopefully next year.
