well today i thought ide have a hour round farm, this bit of land holds quite afew bunnys, the earth are in hedge rows deviding fields and are a distance from one another where some of the bunnys have to run a fair way across the fields to hit another earth or the woods, i thought it would be bang on for flying hawk at them, well they would of been if the hawk wanted to take them, i bolted a good 8 in a row with the hawk missing them all and even not atempting to go for some of them ? once he missed them he wouldnt attempt to go for them again, he bolwed one over and didnt get a firm grip and

thanks pal, on my first post i got advised to give it away as i new nothing about them, i understand that homework should be done realy before getting any live stock no matter what it is, i look after anything to the best i can, other wise i wouldnt keep them, im happy with how things have gone and it'll have plenty more outings out for me and the harris to enjoy, atb

thanks for the comments, im into other pest control but never had the chance to have ago with the birds or pray side or gane any experience with them, i have been thrown in the deep end with them but ive tried my best with it and ive enjoyed it, at first i was shitting my self thinking it was just going to do one when i let it of, i just walked on and he followed me, i was pleased with how it went, im hoping to get him alot more fitter then hopefully we'll have some fun,

had my first outing this aftie with the harris, ive owned this bird for around 4wks, to be honest im very green at this game but ive been spending abit of time with the bird when i can and getting what advice i can from the lad who gave me it, i was struggling at first to drop the birds weight as i was feeding it way too much but ive managed to get it close to what it flys best at, ive had the bird flying a good 20/30 yrd to me daily, the bird isnt fully fit i wouldnt of thought but today i gave it a quick hour out as i was itching to give it a go, the bird has hunted but not for a while, i t

dont think it had anything to do with spade coming out, think it was that little dance you did to them and then they phoned law to have you sectioned, you move quite well for a OLD KID, BARKY were getting on very well,

have i got a chance?
CO CHISE replied to Barky's topic in Gamekeeping, Conservation & Shoot Management
to be honest pal ide give up before giving it a go only joking pal, like lab~tastic has said best bet would be college but if not beating and then just ask if you can help around the shoot but that ends very soon thou, do you know of any game farms near you ? i use to work on one yrs ago and that might get your feet in on a shoot, i use to be asked to go beating alot but to be honest i couldnt be arsed, i preferred to do the pest control when asked, game farms will be getting the old birds in afew month and eggs and there might be some help needed, egg collecting/feeding/ washing out and so o -
are you billy casper then from kes jasper65, lol, once again thanks for the advice given, hopefully the bird will be happy with me and once i understand the birds weight fully and get it flying then the bird will have plenty of time out, as i put before im in a position were i can take it to work as i work on a farm with well over 1200 acre, atb

thanks lee for the advice, pretty much what ive already been advised, thanks, after the first 2 replys i got i ended up getting back on phone to lad and we had a good talk about this birds ideal flying weight and it needs to get down to 1.8 and a little lighter for hunting and he also said im feeding him way too much and to cut him down, i was more worried if i was wasting my time at the age the bird is but it seems not, thanks for the positive replys and ile let you's know how i got on and if i should of listened to first 2 replys, lol, thanks again,

thanks jasper65 for a positive reply, i was on verge of giving it away, lol, the lad who gave it to me is very helpfull and is on end of a phone line if i need him for anything realy, i was just trying to asks others for there opinion as we all have different ways on going about things no matter what it is, im new to this and was asking for advice, thats all, i have afew books and dvd's that lad borrowed me and i have tried to read through acouple of the books but its alot to take in at first, the main advice i was hoping for was over the birds age, i just didnt want to put time and effort in

bit harsh saying give it away without giving it a try ?i dont know anyone else or any falcon center near me, the lad who gave me it has given me his advice but i was trying to hear others views on harris's aswell , all i realy wanted to know was, is the bird too old for me to try paling it up as it does seem abit wild when i go near it and what was the best way to try to calm it down, i was only asking if i was feeding it too much and what was the ideal flying weight for a male and would it be better me cutting its feed down to try to get it to come to me better,

hi lads, ive just been given a 5yr old male harris with everything to go with it, the lad who gave me it had hunted with it at mainly rabbits but for last 10mth or so he hasnt done anything with it or hardly handled it through been very busy at work, to be honest im very green at this game but willing to give it a go, something ive been interested in but havnt had a chance at doing it, ive been paling it but its taking some doing, it trys to fly of when i go near it but i can get it feeding it on the glove but it takes some doing, im feeding it day olds, around 3 a day, is 3 too many and shou
