Uphill Lofts Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Had one hit a week ago, birds kept in now till young are moved as cold weather and no pleasure hanging around watching out for the killers in wintery conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryngwynt Lofts Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Still early lads,especially if you are prone to attacks.Birds finishing chicks then will be split then let out.SH hen is lethal at this time of the year building herself up.Percy trouble anytime of the year but they are both bulking themselves up to rear.If I was you id leave them in for a bit longer.

peter pandy Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 Watched a Peri attempting to get one of Uncle Albert's birds to-day but they have learned to keep at the same level as the toe rag and they are all safe and sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnQuinn Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 Percy has been in the sky everyday lately but I haven't lost any to it this year, long may it continue !!! Considered keeping them in this winter too coz I got hammered last year but glad I didn't as they are fit as F and ready to train when I see fit to start them.You guys gettin hit have my sympathy coz despite advice given its no easy to curtail Percy when it's determined.
