fireman 11,235 Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 My greenfinches are on their last rounds as well and once these fledge i'm splitting the hens up from the cocks as they've bred enough now but wish i had the same problem with the others as they've all be useless Quote Link to post Share on other sites
francolin 449 Posted June 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 millet you are spot on mate,to be fair I would have stopped them sooner but I was down to 3 adult pair, and a mate asked me for any spare young,so I wanted to breed a good few this year,2 clutches is plenty for any pair,but mine are on 3rd round ,so that's it for this season. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
