But the YB season is bang in time with the Percy YB training, not hitting to kill hitting to teach We are trying to experience ours at a time when the biggest threat to them is training they’re young Not saying old bird don’t get it but when hens are sitting eggs we have a wee ease One weekend could sort it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dal2 Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 Hard times...solway had a bad weekend last time out all due to the weather...my day started at 5.30 and it was cloudless blue skies ...cold in a light north. Come 10am it was Baltic in a fresh north and cloudy....if that was across the borders the birds would have it tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiger Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 (edited) Sorry guys it's not all down to percy to day I believe the weather played a factor ie cold north winds probably the biggest factor.
