Hi David im in agony today and been up most of the night. To make matters worse all the drinkers were frozen this morning. I need to have a re-think about some design faults in my loft. Trying to pick the iced up drinker up off the floor was not a ideal today.
Look like i have to get my thinking cap on ( OH MY POOR BRAIN CELL)

look after your back Amanda, holiday time hubby needs looking after & pampering

same ere with back problem im taking plenty of pain relife just to cope with cold and trying to keep warm still not helping tho ... only sleeping ... lol i had to take little philip with me to sort drinkers out .... and come across i cock bird with wet dropping so locked up over night ....

was always under the impression that we should treat two weeks before pairing ? sure it says so on the tablets and have read/heard others do it this way......

will be treating mine when i pair up before they lay cocci canker and worms

It is just my opinion but i always treated when the hens had laid the second egg as any treatment can knock the pigeon about

i like a good strong egg / shell

i,ve been looking at my hens for tha last 3 weeks or so,of which have access to a 12 foot aviary 24 hours a day.some of them stay in there all night,i know this because i have been down all hours to check on them,false alarms with my security stystem,anyway i,ve noticed that the hens are in much better condition than the cocks of which i lock up at tea time. i know a bloke who does this with all his birds and they to are in fantastic condition,so should we all do the same and does it make any differance at all.what your views on this anybody

always been a great beleiver in plenty of fresh air

I like plenty of air also
