| well from what i understood its the upper section of the beak and towards the back there is a thin line going towards the curtains and its said that if the line is straight and very narrow like a pencil line then they would breed from it but if the line is bent or to wide they dont .....on viewing the throat its easy to see what their on about but they did say its no good viewing it whilst the birds are in the moult they being tasker and kirkland |

Hi Darren if you can obtain one of the dvd's which Jim Jenner did  on one of them which i borrowed of a freind if shows you Paul Haulterman talking about this
Also when Frank and Geoff were on "The Best of British" in the early 80's Frank talks about the throat with old Alf Beadsmore |

The N.E.H.U race from Melton Mowbray 21/4/2012 was won by Peel bros of South Shields, they took 1st club 1st fed, also taking 2nd and 4th club and 15 of the 25 birds clocked in the club......well done Peel brothers.
