2” pavers are 600 x 600 so there weight is spread over a tiny area compared to a 8ft by 4 ft concrete slab for example , when the ground shrinks/ moves / drops which sooner or later it will then half of the slab will be holding the other half’s weight causing it to crack , I Layed a 8ft by 16 ft slab in my back yard when first moved in , layed it on 2 “ hardcore 4” thick concrete no steel reinforcements, bout 3 years later big crack strait through the middle and that only hAd dog pens on it , now I have the same size slab using the same size concrete type with steel reinforcement in it wi

yea you can during hunting season , if your Goss is scatty then I’d put it on a low bow perch but try get a bow perch not a D perch , or a high rotating ring perch when outing it out to weather and bath , then after bathed and preened and dried pick bird up put tail guard back on , I’d consider a raptor perch tho like moorman has said they realy are great for baiting birds , everyone I have spoke to have all said that there bird hardly ever baited on them and I’ve started making my own , if you use a jesses extender then the swivel won’t be getting pulled up through the tail causing damage ,

No one in the right mind will keep a tail guard on a bird all year round , The tail guard will be fastend to one of his tail feathers so when he dropped that feather the guard will drop , going in catch him up to put it in diffrent tail feather while that one grows back in is just going to stress the bird out, with out trying to sound like a smart c**t I’ll be blunt and try explain best I can , . When A bird pushes new feathers through it is uncomfortable for them The quils ar pushes out and new feathers in a protective sleeve (couple inch long ) pushes through try hol

Can’t beat couple flights at the red legs ??

Could be boredom mate , like moorman says your aloud to exercise , get her out following on , if you don’t want to travel far to huntin grounds just find somewhere closer to you to fly her Get her couple flights to lure if need be if she’s come out of a moult and then sat about doing nothing because of lockdown most probably boredom
-
What bird is it ?pr or imp , Has she pulled it out or dropped it naturally, if she’s pulled it out it’s not because her weight as gone 4 oz . My mate has a redtail that when it’s not been flown it will start to strip it’s tail feathers out of Bordem but that’s an imp ,

To be fair the place is shit , plenty better forums / social platforms to visit , this place been going down bank for to long , it’s more a force of habit now to have a quick look on see what shite been posted then leave , probably the same for most people but soon the habit of even coming on having a nose around will stop

No the feathers would struggle to be pushed in plus when he moults his decks out he’d drop the tail guard mount and you’d have to catch him up and put new mount to fit tail guard on which would cause him stress and fret marks on feathers , if the mews is fully secluded with a half open top he shouldn’t be baiting around to much , try get all the surfaces in the mews smooth (eg all plywoodwalls a corner perche and one center perch ) and it shouldn’t get caught on anything to be broke
