FAO Ray (Peel Bros) - YB bought from auction

Hi Ray,
these are the youngsters you bought from the Earlestown auction mate (progressing well)

Kenny will put picture on shortly

very nice ybs mark, look nice and healthy..........im sure ray will be very pleased with them.

Your certainly breeding loverly youngsters this year...lots of yellow down on them, someone told me thats what to look out for in squeekers?

they are excellent,very pleased with them,cannot wait to get them ,i,m all excited about getting these and my ones from the exchange as well

yes have heard that too martyn, its funny that in the same nest you can get one with a lot more yellow on it than the nestmate isnt it........wonder why they say this is so with the yellow ?

yes ray me too, i usually part them around 27-28 days for myself when they are covered enough under the wings and when they have a pretty good idea how to eat and drink.....as with me feeding in the box they copy the parents and learn off them.......


what sort of age are you thinking of ray.

david ,i,ll leave it to you,like i said i,m happy fully feathered,so next week will do for me if ready then

ok ray,

sorry mark for hijacking your topic........
