  1. Right mate. The old way, which must still be good, is to have a trio. 2 hens 1 cock. You are having problems because, in my opinion, the cock bird is not servicing the whole flock. Isolate him and two hens of your choice and I would say your problems are solved. Speak to a few breeders of special breeds and they will assist. Jok.
  2. Have a little look Adam on the skills site. Might be of interest to you. Jok.
  3. Thank you Griff. Yes it's been a while but I've been really busy with the boxes. The sticks are something I had a go at some years ago and just thought it would be nice to have a change. Originally I was going to use hazel but my mate makes snooker cues so I had one of his blanks which worked grand. If I can obtain more antler I'll do something similar to your fantastic knife carvings. I've got the Dremel up and running so can have a bit of a go. Looking forward to a few evening projects. Jok.
  4. Speaking of. Devon . Have you any antler lying around. I'm keen to do a few more. Jok.
  5. Thank you for your kind words. Jok.
  6. Eh up Devon. Yes it worked OK. It's finished on the tip and, if you have a close look, down the right side where I trimmed it, in black buffalo horn. Polished up a treat. Jok.
  7. Thought you might like this. It's always difficult to fashion a thumb stick with differing tine thicknesses. I trimmed and shortened the tickets tine and added black buffalo horn to give it some symmetry. Also the coin inlaid is a 1917 silver sixpence which is fairly unusual. The shaft is made from kiln dries ash which I've stained and polished. All in all not a bad little thing. The recipient doesn't yet know he's having it. Jok.
  8. Reckon brothers Gray will hold it all together and with Ali at scrum half, a daunting format. Good luck . Jok.
  9. What a FCKG try. Brilliant. Come on you Italians. Jok.
  10. Explain in words why the English International squad don't know the rules. I think the Italians are playing a good strategy and forcing errors in handling within the ranks. Quality in my opinion. I guess the end result is still obvious but fair play to the underdogs. Jok.
  11. Comments please gentlemen? Is this really happening? Rules are rules. Jok.
  12. Would that be Niall Mackenzie? Lol.
  13. Ali Price was sensational. What a stand in. Looking forward to this afternoon's game. Jok.
  14. Have you entered your dream team? Jok.
  15. Dodgy git but still a Jock. Good result today against the heathens. Lol. Welcome on board pal. Jok.
  16. Correct Socks. Kept my head down and said nowt but when you you show talent like that then it's time to man up. It was not a great game but by heck there was some spirit in there. Just watched Ireland and much the same can be said of them. Great result. This 6 Nations is looking good. Jok.
  17. Better than that. We stuffed them. What a team result. This side could certainly go places. Shame Laidlaw wasn't in the mix but he'll be over the moon. Oh!! And bad luck Wales haha. Jok.
  18. Stick that up your arse Walshie. Guts and determination. Jok.
  19. That's just taking the piss. And at nine and a half quid a rip off. Idiots. Jok.
  20. Couple of things when incubating. Think like a chicken. She sits and hatches anywhere from 10 to 15 eggs before sitting tight yet they all hatch at virtually the same time. She never washes the eggs!! Lol. When I first started I admit to using banties which obviously gives you a huge advantage. Why not try a small batch without cleaning. The reason I mentioned the egg candler is that I have one here needing a new home. It's new and has a re-charging lead. They sell for about £15.00. If you are interested give me a PM. Jok.
  21. Zzz just a thought. Have you got a candler? Jok.

    I remember coming off the North Bank near Boston with a bucket full of eels. When we got back, we cut them into 1 inch pieces ready for cooking and jellying. I swear each piece had a life of its own which apparently is due the numerous nerves in an eels spine. Just a comment. Jok.
