    Good luck Fireman, got 4 chicks at a month, 4 at two weeks, 1 at 1 week, 4 at 3 days and two sitting on 4 eggs, so its fingers crossed, be more than pleased if they all rear them, early days and first time so prepared for some troubles along the way.

    I have had 3 pairs of Fifes with clear eggs, two pairs were sitting on 4 eggs, two hatched from each pair, removed the nests from the others, replaced them and two sitting on eggs now, one pair havent even shown any interest in building a nest.

    Im a complete novice mate and just joined a local CBS in Cumbria, loads of help and advice but a lot have their own way of doing things, pick the bones out of it all and I use what I feel comfy with.

    Sound very similar to the canary cocks but with a bit of finch at times, Im a newcomer so im assuming as its slightly different at times that it is finch.
  18. wild rover
    He has just started and is singing well now, he tries to outsing the fife cocks, I have 6 fife cocks so hes at it a fair bit, very lively bird.

    Bred last year from a goldie to a Fife, not sure about colour fed but the red is very distinctive, went to a sale and some were selling for £140, me being new didnt want to pay that much, got this one for £35 from a bloke about 12 miles away, have joined a CBS club, meeting on thursday so hopefully meet more people in the know.

    Cheers lads, I have also used ivermectin drops on each bird, i got it made up at vets, it only cost £3 for enough for 50 birds, used an artist brush to dab one drop on each. Thanks for help, advice gratefully received.

    I have been advised to dust my cages , nests etc with diatomaceous earth red mite powder anyone else use it, what do you think of it.
  23. wild rover
