I am sure that you will know this but always clip the wings of the captive birds. If they are then released by a 'do gooder' they will not be able to fly away and they will be easy prey for foxes etc. Edited October 24, 2014 by JDog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is in the conditions of the general licence that we all read before operating a Larsen trap ? I think the best way round this is to clip the legs off the 'do gooders' Edited October 24, 2014 by lordripon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR JAMES Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 It is my understanding that clipping the wings of the call bird is ileagal so the second option as above sounds the best to me hmmm would that be ileagal too hmmm lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
