Guest Owen Posted March 17, 2010 Report Posted March 17, 2010 The best way to deal with this is to get yourself a job so that you are away all day. I have to see to my birds early and I do not see them again until I get home. That was what made me want to fly widowhood in the first place. You are right about one thing though, widowhood cocks need to rest.
Guest ROCKYandRAMBO Posted March 17, 2010 Report Posted March 17, 2010 ive got a stock pair in there so hope fully he will kepp them off the floor as hes very aggresive over his bowl
