Me matt Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) I have bought these, good price I had to scrape the flocking of the beak and eyes, they brings the birds in very well. Edited November 9, 2017 by Me matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredwalton Posted November 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 Yeah I saw them they look good. I'm after quite a few and that's an expensive way of buying them. Though looking on all of the shooting websites they are all pretty pricey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though looking on all of the shooting websites they are all pretty pricey Yeah - the best price for flocked I could find at the time. I got a dozen, if theres crows about they do the job. I met a guy that had sprayed pigeon shells balck..... might be a basic approach but from what I saw the crows showed enough interest amd plenty were dropped- he was a blinding shot though I have to say.

Is that the flocked types of crow decoys you use the black polish on? I ask, as after a few seasons of throwing mine back in an old dog bed cover there starting to show a few marks here and there.

steve_b_wales Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 I made my own by using Correx which is similar to what 'For Sale' signs are made from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_b_wales Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Yes they are Lloyd. But from above,they are very realistic. I can fit at least 60 in a carrier bag.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
