cheeper than Aviform work that one out

aye because other birds going in too hungry will eat what his throw back up certainly must suit his birds and management , its what hes feed during the week that makes the difference they must need more good corn towards back of week so can send them near full

do they like it lol ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

a few small seeds / conditoner and a few peanuts is most they need for shorter ones

i find easiest feeding method is to use an empty pickstone in middle of floor , (1) they compete for food which i like (2) they eat all the mix rather than picking at it (3) you can see when to take food away when last 3 / 4 are picking od bits up then time for food to go

in same boat weather been crap 3rd time out started to do 45 minutes so may see the basket in a few days if not right at home pointless sending them down the road they need to be fit to out fly bops and manover over wires ectra , and if clash with other birds unfit birds will get lost and tire and give up get them fit then in the basket

faces house lol mines facing north

yup but must weigh what says on box and they'll say product settles in transit lmao , i buy the sacks of natural loft white

congratulations to all the family Stuart

i dont own a wallet unlike you mr money bags lmao ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D :D :D :D

no problem from me never is lifes too short and all that , im here to help as are many others and we all have different views as long as it helps others get a few ways to sort a problem out its down to them to try and find which method suits them and there birds

to mimmic a chipping egg get some mexican jumping beans from joke shop and place them in plastic ones

the pot ones are the best as there heavier and some of my birds in the past have been sly and laid whilst plastic eggs are still in the nest so worth paying that little bit more and get the pot ones

dummy eggs are placed under paired birds to stop unwanted babies

i didnt need to repeat cleaning of the wound as already been said my choice would be iodine but wound powder just as good also smearing of a bit of sudocream ( healing cream ) after the glue is dry to help form a barrier against infection also speeds the healing process up , i never jumped down your throat , but if you wish to take unbridge thats entirely up to you , my comments were honest leaving a wound open only increases the chance of infection and the skin tisues from dying so immediate treatment is needed , your choice to give information too others via pm is quite within your rights i actualy do the same from time to time , i never made any offensive comments dirrectly to you and i sincerly appologise if you have taken them the wrong way as no offense or upset was intended and i didnt feel the need to 'jump down your throat' in anyway Regards Mark

conamination is the biggest risk yes birds are tough and resiliant but if wound gets infected the skin could go black and fall off the sooner its glued the sooner the bird will recover , you wouldn't leave anything suffereing for another two days pissing water and corn through holes !!!!!!

if you have a crop wound ensure crop is empty and dry , you may need to trim a few feathers around the wound apply super glue to the edge of the slash and hold slash together just make sure you dont glue yourself to the bird , this will ensure the bird can drink in a few hours time watch for leaks if any leaks apply more glue the glue will heal the flesh , hospitals use this prodedure for head wounds , feeding or drinking whilst have a wound where leaks is not good for the bird you need to get it sealed so can eat and drink properly

glue holes together using super glue if a crop wound

Welcome to Pigeon Basics hope your enjoying the site
