I guess that answers that one.

Absolutely certain,
it was all still wrapped up and chain was in protective paper and nothing had a single mark on it.
Is the chain on the right way?

Put up a notice by the pen saying killing or wounding pheasants with an air rifle during an act of trespass probably counts as "Armed Trespass" and if cuaght, they could do time for it. The RSPCA would be only too pleased to have their scalps too.
Yeah put a sign up that should stop them

Hi,
Dare I ask what the gun is, barrel length and age of your son. I know you said you picked it up cheap as, but could it be worth something? It certainly won't be after it's been chopped about!
Do you only want to shorten barrel for balance & swing as 4.10s are renowned for being too heavy?
If the lad is still growing at a fast rate he'll soon outgrow and mods.

Fixed choke + Non selector = Bottom every time.

What does it look like? I would like to start searching out for different crops. Is it grown everywhere?
Ack-Ack is spot on Sugar beet is now only really grown in east Anglia for delivery into British sugars Cantley, Wissington and Bury St Edmunds factories and further north for delivery into there Newark factory. Still a great crop to shoot over, I've made decent bags over drillings and tops after it has been harvested.
Don't expect to see the same amount of tops left in the field this year though as farmers are now being paid for hole beet to be delivered, so no longer required to crown them in the field.

Allow them to cool and then pack into freezer whole.
My advice is once they are frozen don't attempt to take them out and repack to make more space, believe me they won't all go back in! :look:

In the tray around the duck works for me.

Basic principles are still the same, equipment has definitely moved on since those days but a net, poles, decoys, gun, carts & knife are all you need to form basic setup.

Go on then, I assume first offer will be accepted so £1 delivered?
Failing that maybe add a price as per forum rules..

Try getting in touch with Oliver or Robert Paul at the Suffolk food hall, they seem open to let people on there land. They have approximately 2000 acres unkeepered now. Good luck with the search

You sure you got that right Bigadam?

As well as feeding the birds make sure you tackle the vermin too.

Does this sound right.
Incubation
Unfortunately, pheasant eggs do not hatch as well as other poultry eggs in modern forced-draught incubators. Hatching results are much better using broody hens or still-air machines. With a commercial operation, using brooding hens is completely out of the question and still-air machines need much more attention and labour than automatic forced-draught incubators. Some types of forced-draught incubators give better hatching results than others.
Turning
Eggs must be turned regularly during incubation to prevent the embryo from sticking to the shell. The more frequently the eggs are turned, the more chickens will hatch successfully. Some incubators are fitted with automatic devices to turn eggs every hour.
No this doesnt sound right to me, can't see too many chickens hatching from pheasant eggs but I am ready to be amazed as you learn something new every day.
On a serious not hope it all goes well.

Could be interested depending on when and where,would be good to meet new people. I'll keep watching..

Might be OK for your chickens but personally I wouldn't put my dogs in that.
It looks very restricted and seems to have very little security.
An intended thief could pick the Whole lot up and be off with your dog!
There again -Everybody to their own?
Without sounding rude how secure are your dogs?, mine lives in an open top kennel with bolted gate but I don't lock it. If someone wants to steal something they'll always find a way in my opinion.
I agree that the kennel does look a bit restricted.

You should take the roof off and leave food in for two weeks and let them fly in and feed and fly out again after two weeks replace the roof and you will catchh plenty this is one we made earlier & have caught plenty
Mark
That's the way I'd play it, build up confidence before going for the catch. You don't really need a call bird although I guess it does add confidence to others to join it.Good luck.

I don't know, you're gonna have to give me a clue!
