billy whizz Posted October 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 i was going to say the beans did me no good at all it brought them straight down hovering above the house, they havent been the same since there on pure wheat at the min. One of the lads i got my first 8 birds of left food down all day for them? ive never heard of anyone doing this. ive been sticking to feeding them as everyone says but they havent flown now for over a week they just come out looking on the floor or sat on the roof soon as i open my loft door they all fly straight back in. Yes they have all been wormed and canker powders etc. Looks like ill be putting them back in a box and taken them a mile up the road again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sighthound Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Are you sure they are not too hungry? If you over feeding they will usually fly high.Mine will hang about the loft if I do not feed enough..You could try flagging them up off the loft if you are sure they are not too hungry.

billy whizz Posted October 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Mate im pulling me hair out with these birds lol,ive tried feeding them more and fed them till they stopped eating.im going to try 2 table spoons each instead of one ive tried flagging them the lot mate the list is endless. All i can think is they must be hungry there always mad for food. I cant beleave how hard it is to get birds to fly!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
