A chick does need to demand food for the parents to keep giving as such,so yes a very fine line but with a few in the nest you can sort of trick her by feeding half of them and she'll cope with the rest but it'll soon come to a head when the chicks get bigger but as your'll have been feeding them anyway and giving a whistle or such as you do feed them they will know it's you and will feed happily from you if the hen was to give up totaly with them..Hope that makes sence... 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I use the countrywise bullfinch mix for my bullfinches. Then goldfinch an siskin mix I use for goldies canary's greeny that mix an a bit of bully mix. And my redpoll's love the goldie & siskin mix. Is Morley aviaries in Leeds 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Plenty of seal pups wanting to greet me lovely to see am talking 1 to 2 feet away from me North Norfolk as such has the seals but we've been seeing a few more about in south norfolk,north suffolk.It's north suffolk i do my fishing and i have a small boat and target Bass,i do sometimes go further out and bash some hounds and rays but those rays are a like doggies to me and are a pain in the arse.The fishing in the north sea is changing due to the seas warming and the cod have gone and even the whiting were rarer than normal this winter gone and it's sort of spring fish all year round now.Out on tuesday evening after work on the boat for the first time this year so can't wait and i hope the Bass will play ball.... 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
