This is the loft your talking about i think

South facing I found the street light trigger the moult, do you not find this with the lights from the flats?

HOW MANY WOULD YOU SUGGEST IN EACH SECTION THEN? The loft is approx 20 ft long my big worry is a street light, that light up the garden

I agree about the cost but i don't think it will look as good, i was looking at 4 in each section, and if they do what i'm hoping! Would be money well spent:: :emoticon-0123-party:

Top man thankyou:: :emoticon-0140-rofl:

i have redland type tiles on my loft roof. I am looking for some plastic clear one's any idea where i could obtain these?

Owen i remember that cock, i told you it had a feeders eye :emoticon-0136-giggle: :emoticon-0136-giggle: :emoticon-0136-giggle:

Best of luck with him, I've got 4 cocks that i want to bull so will select 4 hens for each. And P.S. dont for get to breed me a fed winner from him:emoticon-0136-giggle: :emoticon-0136-giggle: :emoticon-0136-giggle:.

Andy how do you select your bull cock, has he already bred winners with other hens, a champion racer or bred from a certain line? just interested Regards Bernie

Just a bit of fun:: :emoticon-0140-rofl: when sorting your birds at the end of the season how many of you would be brave enough to select your birds by hand blind folded and why?

catapult, street light in the garden don't take a lot of working out Adam: :emoticon-0136-giggle: :emoticon-0136-giggle: :emoticon-0136-giggle:

I do't know about Dave Allen the best books i read on widowhood were by Ken Kipax and a book called the secret of speed by.E.J Sains You aint seen me shoot: :emoticon-0136-giggle: :emoticon-0136-giggle: :emoticon-0136-giggle:

I found by letting the cocks sit twice and race the first race natral it settles the cocks. and by pairing the birds on Jan 14th it allow's the cocks to recoupe and bond to the box after rearing the young. I also found it easier to get the birds in top nick and hold form for a longer peiod in the season What i don't allow is the cocks to sit more than 5 days on the second round otherwise it triggers the moult, by using this methiod i find they hold the moult for the long enders normally dropping their 1st flight around the first or second week in june. I've not been on my game the past few years and was pulling my hair out, (now i'm bald i've found the reason) :emoticon-0136-giggle: I noticed that i was having problems with this system the cocks would drop flights early then relised that a street light that lights up my garden was to blame:: The street light is the reason i'm reluctant to put sky lights in my loft roof.

Pair your birds on the 14 jan allow birds to rear one round and remove hens from the loft when the young are around 14 days old. allow the cocks to finish off the young. Repair the hens so that they lay 5 days before your first race. Race the cocks sitting for that race then remove all hens bowls eggs ect on the Sunday after the race. You are now on full widower. They will now race from short races to long enders. Or the other option is to race them dry pair them later allow to sit 10 days remove hens eggs ect one week before first race: or race first race on eggs if you prefer i find this better when racing yearling.

Got some late breds coming from John Ellis Wednesday, Can't wait: :emoticon-0123-party:

I did check Owen's eyes after that mishap and suggested he went to the Options :emoticon-0136-giggle: :emoticon-0136-giggle: And yes i will concur Spencer Jones had some top qualitity birds showing us winner after winner, and only a small team set up with a big reputation. Thanks Owen great day out and good laugh to boot.
