Frann 882 Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 This was one of the first threads I read on THL and Craigyboy impressed with his knowledge from the start. So sad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stewie 3,387 Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 Hey Mate, Well done, and cheers for posting! What's the stry behind them, how did you get into them, and how many have you reared etc? Quite like jays, them being my namesake an all. cheers mate,ive had this pair about 3yrs,theyre 5 yrs old,theyve been paired up since they were 1yr old and last year she laid eggs but the cock ate em as soon as they were laid,so this year when the 1st egg was laid,i took him out,then put him in the next day an he went straight in and tread the hen,so i took him out again,i did this everyday until the 6th and last egg was laid an he did exactly the same each time,i let him back in after a couple of days once all the eggs were laid and kept my eye on him,and he started to feed the hen and never bothered about the eggs and they all hatched bar one,so now this pair should produce every year,but at the end of the month im driving to belgium to pick up 2 proven pairs from a very good breeder,so next year il have 3 breeding pairs plus mi fecking hands full so sad reading that last few lines........ 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have been away for a good few weeks due to my own illness and just popped on a couple of times and can't beleive whats happend to this good genuine man. in the time I knew him we spent times PM'ing each other about birds and plenty of banter with other lads being both Man Utd supporters. we never met craig but I felt I knew you, RIP my man! forever missed.... Condolences and all my sympathy goes out to his family. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Meroman 105 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 I've not been on the forum for a while and this sad news has really shocked me. In the past year or so I have had conversations by pm with Craigyboy about various topics related to breeding native birds and found him to be a true Gentleman and a wealth of knowledge. Although I'd never met him & knew nothing about his personal life I could tell he was a very genuine man whose years of experience as a bird man he shared with everyone who asked a question on the subject. I would like to take this opportunity to offer my condolences to his family & friends at this very sad and difficult time. R.I.P. Craigyboy you will be missed by all. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
