The hawks have been so bad around here that I put my best Fehrholz birds in the breeder loft. I had two birds that didn't fly very long and when they did, they didn't perform. So, I left them in the kit box with some mutts and birms that have managed to survive the migration. Today, I was going to let them out and by chance, the two FORs went out first. So, I shut the door just to see what they would do. I couldn't believe it, these two birds put on the best show I have ever seen. Lots of deep rolls and weird-looking drops. I thought they were going to hit the ground on three occasions. They only flew for a few minutes but it was amazing. I don't know why they wouldn't do this with my older birds. I will try to get some of this action on camera.

Any idea why they wouldn't do anything with the older birds?

Re: Strange


Here is what I think. Each bird have its own style, speed position in flack (kit). For example you have a bird that fly and performs on the inside - slower bird. If it hapend to fly on the outside of kit it won't perform cuse they are not comfortable in that position. Ower time they mature or kit structure suits them and they start performing.

By the way title of the book is "How to poop onto passerbys in 100 lesons"
Edition: "Luckily cows are not flying"
