  1. I know mate, if it weren't for family help we'd be stuck saving till they go up again though. The house has plenty of potential to increase in value too .
  2. Nearly 30, just bought our own place things aren't too bad.
  3. Have you checked his teeth? Also this time of year hobs would rather shag than owt else so that could be it especially if he can smell jills in season.
  4. ?? I think he was probably wondering how a wire box less than 3ft square can look nice?
  5. Darbo I can probably get a load of welsummer eggs if you wanted from by me? Probably free too. He keeps a flock of them and light Sussex. Pm me.
  6. what do you want to hatch?i might have space for 1 broody to hatch some eggs for you. I'm not entirely sure mate, have you any decent fertile eggs knocking about spare?
  7. Had the same thing happen last week, not a mark on him and has always been healthy free range bird.
  8. Don't fancy hatching some eggs for me do you mate? I wish one of mine would go broody so I can build my flock up again. Down to three hens now.
  9. Dunno about corns but the trusty opinel does the job on any dead skin I want rid of.
  10. I tried one and suffered with condensation, I stuck a board across the bottom and drilled holes under that but it was still getting the bedding damp.
  11. Do its lady bits taste of strawberries?
  12. I'd take them too if you could smuggle a trio of quail in with them;)
  13. Not a bad price at all that moll. The pet shops that sell birds near me are a joke with their prices and what they stock.
  14. Out of interest moll how much did they quote and was it a door to door job? Pm if you prefer
  15. I've heard that about linnet cocks getting aggressive when they are in condition, mine is steady as a rock at the mo which is what made me think about getting a hen for him and seeing if i could get them steady enough to cage breed.
  16. Only reason I asked mate is that the finch noted mules are worth more, imo the whole idea of breeding a finch mule is to have it finch noted but a more reliable singer with hybrid vigour but as long as your happy with the bird that's the main thing.
  17. If I don't get any mules this year I'm gonna pack in trying and just breed Irish fancies and possibly linnets, got 3 muling pairs this year so fingers crossed.
  18. Only difference is the collar size and in some cases the depth it goes to. I use my mk3 on my terrier coz the transmitter just slides off the ferret strap and onto the terrier strap.
