this used to be a common practice with yearling cks   but strays are usually trouble

usually an improvement to the stock loft !!

you must have a few  then as your speaking from experence

[Chris Little]

Strays are certainly not welcome in our lofts, they bring trouble.

 

Any that do get through are removed at once and placed in widowhood hen boxes, water replenished and floor re-cleaned

i got a nice houben hen in of brain green that breed 9 first prize winners in 3 years one hen won 6 young bird races in a row a cock won 7 1st in two years for my mate

What I usually do with strays is keep them housed in a cage that is big enough to house an indoor rabbit, and keep it in a seperate hut untill I find out where the owner of the bird lives then it goes home to its own loft, (unless the owner doesn't want it back).  ;D

You will never see a virus under a microscope.

I got one in 2 years ago and when I reported it the guy was completely taken aback. He told me his birds were really ill and advised to remove it from the loft immediately.

Shortly after that I lost 65 youngsters with PMV.
