UKPoacher Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Just leave it as it is. He'll be able to keep going long after you've gone in for a warm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WGD Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 (edited) baby oil between the toes (or on any feathers) stops the snow balling but as said pads ain't a problem for heat loss. Edited December 3, 2010 by WGD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
