Here in South Cheshire they run in large numbers from the maize fields at silage time, so become a problem where-ever they find another residence. Our Council operate a free service so that is what I take advantage of, but if you want some sport, find someone with some terriers, poke the exhaust of ...

Pure breeds are v nice, but not efficient as egg producers, the same reasons against bantams. The best birds I have tried recently are Black Rocks. I'm against ex battery birds, v nice to think of rescueing them, but from a purely commercial view again, not efficient , why are they being got rid of ...

Autumn Fruiting Raspberries
I've had a good crop to date from mine, but notice there are numerous green fruits & flower buds which will find it hard to make it. I suspect these canes are bred for warmer climes. I wonder if I left them until next year, instead of cutting them to ground as advised, if they would mature ?
