Pairing Naturals

[sapper756]

Paired my naturals up today as planned, however all I did was introduce 12 hens to the 12 cocks and have left them to select their own mates, you don,t get more natural than that will see how it goes :-/

hope they pair well for you

They'll be scratching each others eyes out - cos they'll all want the good looking one (evil)

you,ll be lucky if everthing goes well , bedlam the word best suited to this situation

i paired my stock and distance birds yesterday afternoon, locked in boxes overnight , let them out ,a few at a time , it was,nt long before all hell broke loose. ive got more patience with my birds than any fancier i know , but this time of year i find most stressful .

any way good luck  i think you,ll need it

Thanx for the comments folks, what I should have added, is, there are quite a few pairs from last season, so they are taking no problem, it,s the yearlings, that will have to pair naturally

Good Luck with your pairing up sapper756

 

Maybe one year I'll try it

 

Maybe...........

[aye ready]
