Clare L 175 Report post Posted April 1, 2013 Hi Emmy, Fingers crossed on this as I need to breed splits this year, to bring back the mutations I lost last year, to my rat invasion. Which thankfully I haven't had any more problems with lately. The chick did pop out a bit early so will post some better pics when they all fledge properly I have 3 other nest with chicks due to fledge from tomorrow and over the next week ish, hope the weather holds out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clare L 175 Report post Posted April 1, 2013 My patience will be very stretched this year as I will have to wait until next year to breed from this years chicks And then I can start to breed what hopefully I expect to get, but nothing seems to go to plan, so will be fun. I'm already confused this year not getting quite what I expected from some. Big learning curve for me this year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
