pjc Posted March 24, 2008 Report Posted March 24, 2008 it depends on what they are fed on and what system you are keeping them on!
oldguy Posted March 24, 2008 Author Report Posted March 24, 2008 The birds will be fed an average type of diet, mixed seeds with additives kept in a loft with lots of fresh air and natural light
pjc Posted March 24, 2008 Report Posted March 24, 2008 they will prob throw the 1st flight at about 6-8wks old but will go into a body moult 1st.
doo.racer Posted March 24, 2008 Report Posted March 24, 2008 Normally around 6 weeks or so if bred in season. I am aways suspicious if the first flight is not gone by 9 weeks.
