    fox skull?

    A big old ant's nest will clean it up over time or just hang it up off a branch for a year but boiling is the quickest but don't use bleach as it can make the bone really soft and crumbly,use poroxide cream (from hair dressers) instead.
  2. Pigeon toed and barrel chests aren't really health issues,they might not be desirable traits but they ain't health threatening as it were and as long as they don't stop her from doing what i want from her then not an issue to me.
  3. What happened to the purple one with yellow spots in the first pics?,i thought that one was well cute . Grand litter Dave and all the best with them.
  4. I've had no health issues with the one's i've had,one might be a bit pigeon toed and barrel chested but that's it and both are 6 years now.
  5. All the best to who he's left behind,RIP.Darren.
  6. Should make the no handed kunt swim it
  7. Cracking and a big well done to you all,those kids will never forget that and hopefully your'll maybe recognize her out and about sometime.
  8. Gary Glitter and his gang no doub't, and i did get some stick for calling elvis a nonce if remember,so elvis fans what's the difference?.
  9. I've tasted hedgehog and it's fecking rank,nout but gristle that tastes like the worse pork you ever will eat .
  10. I've a 1940's cook book with loads of badger recipes in it,just treat it like pork really.
  11. Willum,s advice is well worth listening to as he fit's security systems for a living.
  12. I've had my terriers tie together when one wasn't in season,no swelling or anything to show she was even getting close to a season,wrong date,just no reason why they tied but they did and no pups were ever born from it.
  13. I can see where your coming from Gnasher,humble donations need no flag waving but i also would like to think his family could relate to this forum and the way he was felt of on here as a good thing and take pride and strength from it,i know i'd be a touch prouder if i knew my old man was thought of by strangers like craigyboy was and folks like him are few and far between these days.Maybe a poll or something could be put up to see what we all think is best?.
  14. Why not do a few things,a auction,a little one off photo comp and a donation thing then pool the money together and then get it to his family after a few weeks after the funeral,let them morn the man first and when there ready to move forward then it's there for them sort of thing,just a suggestion but what ever way it goes i'm sure everyone will do a little something .
  15. Totaly agree with you there,a collection or such would give them the chance themselves to do with it what they want and they'd know best in what way Craigyboy would want it spent better than us.
  16. The fawn dog is a 10 month old saluki x 1/8 bull and as for mumpers slim appearance that's all it is, "a appearance" :laugh: .
  17. Can't quite find the right words but after the poor old do with craigyboy i'm sort of more glad i have met you after a few years of chatting on line and soft as it sounds i will make more of an effort to spend some longer time in your good company Dave next time we meet,but as you know we were on a bit of a run a round this last week so sorry on that front mate but still had a grand walk out all the same.
  18. Was good to meet you at last Dave and stretch the legs for a bit but glad you hid my face as i was looking and feeling a tad rough after a couple of nights of not a lot of sleep ,still a grand bit of country you dwell in down there and your'll be seeing me again for sure sometime but just make sure that maize is down so we can see those hounds .Myself and Hedgemumper it is.
  19. Recon to have a bird that can fly free outside and return to you is something of a pinicle in bird keeping and i can only wish to be able to do it.
  20. Yeah a section for everyone to tell the world about all the illigal activities they get up to,sounds like fun and we could have side bets on who's doors go in first :laugh: .
  21. Maybe a photo comp of bird pics or those of us with birds could have a on line bird show,hard to judge i know but i'm sure we could sort something good out in his good name.
  22. Well now you have a bit of extra space you can collect some wild food for them to peck through,sour and milk thistle,fat hen,hard heads,dock seed heads and many others will see them well,nothing like watching them fly down to it and just behave like birds should do and i either just tie them up in bunches or i have a couple of large old flower pots chicken wired over the top and weighted inside so i can just stick the stalks it and make it just that bit more natural sort of thing.I even cut grass seed heads and they love rooting through these and it sure helps cut down on the food bill when co
  23. Keep on with those aviaries lads,he'd be right up for the hobby getting bigger and stronger .
  24. I logged on to send you a message saying how nice it was to meet you and all that,can't find the words now Dave as like others i never met the man but had pm chats a few times over him helping me with the birds and can't believe this news.Just hope some day his family see this thread and see how much of a grand chap we all thought of him and may his family take strength from it,RIP Craigyboy and thanks for all your help.
  25. Anything from as low as £40 a bird for normals up to a grand a bird for the white ones,the mutations are lovely birds in there own right and i have mutation birds myself(greenies and redpolls)but imo nothing beats a normal coloured native of any sort.All cracking birds though Moss .
