Great Fly


My 5, cоck Bird Kit raised from the OR's I got from Amir, really gave me a good fly this morning, lots of acrobatics, they don't roll deep yet, 5 to 10 ft but the other maneuvers are 50, 60 ft, plate spins right wing and left wing, cork screws, tail rides, helicopter tail rides and a BIG swooping move of some kind rocking back and forth, reminds me of Pappy Boyngton in "The Black Sheep Squadron" show doing the wing wave? The 2 Blacks are the most active, one of the Almonds almost does a wing over, I think they do best with a little wind like I had thins morning.
If it gets any better I'll have to go on double medication!

  I had birds out this morning in the wind and they did things I'd never seen them do on the calm days. No the wind wasn't heavy enough to blow them away but enough to make their moves more visable and not real high up. Larry

Re: Great Fly


NOW I'm starting to get some decent performance from these Husband birds I have.After sending my oldest this years bred birds to Jack Weatherbee in the east I've been waiting patiently for the younger ones about 6 or seven months old now to get their act together and give me some shows.If I fly more than 3 or 4 of them together they don't do much,but when I put up small kits they go higher and do their thing well,even dodging the henery and going higher to laugh at the SOB from above. emoticon emoticon
