Spot on Graigyboy :notworthy:. If I didn't have all the Hawk aviaries here I would love one off you. Can you let Imprinted Jays out like Jackdaws Craig? Had Jackdaws when I was a lad and the odd Carrion crow but never a Jay, a Pal had one that used to talk and later when I met Gill the wife I still had a 9 Year old Jackdaw that used to talk.

 

I'll find a picture of it with the missus and get it fired up in a mo :thumbs:..

Loved my Jackdaws Craigy.

 

made a mistake when I was a lad in getting two and creche rearing them together, once they was out they got up to all sorts of mischief leading each other on and hard to get back!! the only way I ever had control of them was to keep one penned and let them out one at a time.

 

the first one I had before I had the pair I could let him out and bugger off to school all day, you might find this hard to beleive but I used to have to sneak out of the front door and climb over the fence, if the bird heard the gate latch go he would follow me all the way to school :laugh:, on the way back I would get a street away from my house and call, if he was in the area he would be straight down on my shoulder.

 

while out I would leave my bedroom window open for him, I came home from school one day to find the needle had been knicked out of the record player. the tapes had all the ribbon pulled out and shreded around the bedroom and some of my 7 Inch records was on top of the house roof :laugh:.

 

I love the corvids Craigy and would love a Jay. my problem is I would also love to let it out which would be dangerouse with these Hawk aviaries, if it landed on the top of any of them it would be curtains for it. the other option is to knock up a flight which is probably the best idea :thumbs:...
