  1. I've seen a few huntaways over the years on tv and online, would you say people still keep them because they are more useful for certain jobs than a more common herding type or is it just to preserve the breed?
  2. You've blooming ruined it with ketchup
  3. Been a while since I bred any linnet mules, hopefully they're all male for you
  4. Looks like its still perfectly usable to me
  5. Look like bogs in car garages them, waiting around to pick something up and ask to use the throne and then encounter one of them beasts
  6. Couple of screenshots from a video I filmed this morning at work stood in my hiviz jacket as it walked along towards me and basically across my feet.
  7. Numb nuts just goes through them
  8. Knocked up some potato cakes this morning and made pizza dough ready for tonight's tea.
  9. They'll probably end up looking like a munsterlander?
  10. Looks like there's a serval and ostrich near me but nowt else interesting
  11. Retrieves to the airgun so might get out a bit more roosting this year.
  12. I recently moved to a gundog from terriers and lurchers and I'm enjoying getting out and about for a mooch with the pup but the way they work is completely different to what I'm used to, spaniels seem to run around for the sake of it where my borders could kind of head straight for the scent. I was trying to decide for ages wether to go for a lab, gwp or spaniel and ended up with a mental cocker that was a lovely chilled pup at first so he duped me. This was my first family dog so that swayed us towards the cocker and I probably should have got something calmer although the rest are all
  13. My godsons mum has it and it isn't just telling people to F off and it's really hard on her physically when she's having tics and getting by in day to day life with twats judging her and being rude.
  14. The three I bred first round are now weaned off in their own cage.
  15. 2 of 5 that jumped yesterday. I've got another fee in nests now and just set 4 more hens off on their eggs so should get a few more in a couple of weeks.
  16. I'd cut the Christmas tree up and put a bit round each nest pan either side for a bit of privacy. They say to put all the nest pans at the same height and put more pans than hens in too. Good luck
  17. I'm ten years younger than you and it wasn't too uncommon to still see a few of us wandering around with dogs, guns, ferrets and our catch slung over the shoulder walking or cycling home but it would be a bit weird doing it nowadays no doubt some do gooder phoning the police. I've had some good conversations with people walking home carrying a few brace of birds and never any grief. I used to ferret the golf course near our town centre while my dad played golf and nobody would bat an eyelid but sod going on there now it would be all over facebook before I'd lifted the nets.
  18. I've got two 6x3 aviaries with a pair in each at the minute. I've had a few canary hens in at one time before and they bickered and fought over feeders etc.
  19. They must be knocking shite out of each other all together like that this time of year?
  20. Are they in cages or aviary?
  21. Have you not let the natives try and rear their own?
  22. I would have thought raza and fifes would be doing the job for you anyway mate but like you say if they're from untrusted sources they could be cast offs.
