looks great
-
the hardest thing you will come across is the weight management, understand this and your almost there, i find that's the only thing you can control no matter how much help you have, people have killed birds by not getting this right,
-
most will be down now for the summer, you'll get the odd one still at it
-
no worries, if your ever stuck give me a shout

good footage there REW, im glad you got on video to show what can and does happen, ive had a few moments like that myself, nothing to sweat about when you've got the trusty marshall system atb mark

nice one pointer, great to see a harris worked to its abilities, here to a safe moult both my bird are going through the breeding conditioning at the mo, chupping, under feathers flaired out, twigg carring etc
-
my bloody male come in to condition today, flirting like a good un,lol
-
I couldn't fly through the moult as its family time, sometimes the hunting season can become a bit of a chore after a while, because I fly in the mornings sometimes I have to force my sorry arse out of bed,lol when the weather starts to warm up its harder to get the weight off a bird and you will find it needs to be taken lower than that of around winter time, plus everything is breeding I know some folk who jump their bird up all through the non season, but then you've got to dedicated that time to it pretty much every day I prefer to just fed it up and put it away, just my opinion
-
don't really use one, but if I do I use my G knife, don't think you can get them any more

Thanks bullet I was wondering about having the bars facing the windows but didn't seem to be an issue for you bud how many pen were there ? Hope you don't mind me askingRegards, Danny two free loft pens and a night holding pen for when I was flying a bird, bars facing out like them are good for imprints

something ive been thinking a lot about, getting a dog to work with

I know the feeling mate, flying a second hand bird you'll never knoew whats been done before you as that the learning stage, this female ive flown this year was 7 years old, mustard on rabbit but not so good on anything else unless it gets up at my feet ive flown her around 2lb7.5 oz, im going to drop her weight this week a little just to see if ive flown her at her top weight, time will tell, if she turns out to be better and more committed at the lower weight then i'll look forward to next season with her, if not then I might have to get a new female, my male I had from day one and flown fo

-
cant beat a days ratting, nice one pointer we went to a local place, my mate took his ferret, two slips and one in the bag, nice buck, missus has agreed to let me fly till the end of this week, my mate who I fly with has finished his season today on a nice buck rabbit too here's to one more week
-
I had the same yesterday, had a busy day ahead of me so I thought I'd do some jump ups, having no receiver with me aswell as im waiting on a new one, first two jumps mint, third she must of thought stuff this im off, gone with the wind she was! my mate came to me with his set and after an hour she was back on the glove and when I got back home my brand new shiny marshall receiver had arrived! trying to get the good wife let me fly for one more week,
-
when we caught rabbits last month and gutted them they were full of young, proper milky doe's here's to a safe breeding/moulting season everyone, fingers cross to fly a home bred bird next season
-
to be fair pointer, im in the same boat, as regaurds not a lot about, everything is pretty much out of season now, rabbits got young, think its time to hang my glove up this weekend until next season
-
That looks great bullet. Very sturdy were did you source the fibreglass panels from a good jet wash once a year and it would be looking like new. I used to drive for a firm who supplied truck body materials, cost nil. estimate cost would of been around £2000
-
I thought I'd share a picture of my old mews, I built it from scratch using aluminium and fibreglass, don't have this anymore
-
JJM I agree with you that's why I sent king my pictures through pm, I know king in person, not seen him for a few years but I know he's not that way inclined, im only trying to help him get ideas as I know what ever he does he gives 100% and trust him atb bullet
-
going well now mate, I keep sayng im putting mine away this weekend, but it rolls on to the next lol
-
I would just like to add that king is just after ideas of set ups, not to pick faults/steal birds etc, if your not happy to share them on here then a few pics via pm would be great he is a sound member with a keen interest of falconry, hope you understand bullet
