| Half an hour is better than nowt, but the wind was still strong, so didnt want to chance it any longer.
But I'm happy with them now, they all trap like good uns.
Now I have cut them down to one feed a day and they are now competing for their food, which is what I like to see.
Amy is happy because they are feeding from her hand now, she was almost hysterical with excitement when one landed on my head outside the loft. |

| They will tell you if you are mate.
Trust me you will know.
Mine are bouncing and extremely responsive, Ive just upped them to three quarters of an ounce.
I will increase it to an ounce once they are flying properly, I have started to put glucose in their drinker now a couple of times a week. |
