Mine the noise came back as soon as her weight got to near her flying wait hopefully when she starts killing regularly it stops. My friend one is totally silent and he feeds his of the fist, I fed mine on the Lure that's the only thing we did different. 

Thats normally the way with them regular killing sometimes sorts them out. Keep us posted, good luck with her.

Started training her for throwing today, she has taking to it quite well. Tomorrow I'm going to throw her at the Lure while a friend swings it.

Had her out today some where new and she was not happy she normally instantly back, but didn't want to fly more than 10ft to me. She's been used to noisy places and this one was wooded and quite.

Well done on getting her entered mate . 

[robert wootton 156]

She's been flying well had to take her down but by bit but 214 grams seems to be her zone. The other day brought new travel box for a spar put her in it and she snap 9 tail feathers. So had to buy a bigger one. Am not happy, live and learn. Got a box for a male Harris so should be good.
