Imprint Male Goshawks

[Hawkmaster]

We have all heard about the brown females taking AI in their first year.
What about brown males donating does it happen as commonly?

[Tim Laycock]

A donation is possible but any level of semen viability is unheard of I think.

Just spoke to Kevin Pekin.
His male comes from an imported Jeremy Edwards female and a Mark Richards male. He flies at about 2lbs.

This bird was giving semen while a brown bird in his first year, about an 1/8 to a 1/4 of an Eppendorf tube for 1 month. All semen under the scope was superb and 100% viable.

Its kevin picking, and take plenty of salt.:rolleyes:

[Hawkmaster]

Yes but he did produce and sell 4 youngsters of which one was sold back to the guy he got the male from orginally. The guy confirmed it was a brown bird too.

[NightOwl]

finally , today my male tried to mount my hand three times today but seems a little unsure of how to mount my hand. any tips or thoughts?

[Tim Laycock]

Is he sitting on a ledge while trying to mount your hand?

[Goshawks00]

Owl-- what type of covering, on your hand,are you using to collect semen with?

:twisted: :twisted: Why whould anyone even consider breeding from an immature bird ?
At this stage of the game any REAL Austringer/ Falconer would be weighing up the hawk"s potential for hunting next season, not counting the pound signs ! Some people have no shame !

That is a bit harsh.

Nothing wrong in the search for knowledge and testing the frontiers. There is no evidence that the guy is only interested in the money.

[Hawkmaster]

I love it when people spout off and know nothing about what they are talking about!:lol: Or maybe they do, but have just not worded it correctly and then they come out with something that sounds this stupid :supz: Well Done!

I have tried to breed from my brown bird this season! http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b348/Accipitrine/Sexe27.gif
With a good Diet there is no reason why a brownie cant be bred from and flown during the next season,
My Goshawk is no brood bitch! :evil:
The young were going to be distributed among fellow austringers for free!

What a totaly dogmatic and uninformed statment you have made http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b348/Accipitrine/Sexe27.gif


A month ago I would have said something realy abusive and nasty here but my position now negates this, Shame realy! :roll: @ You

[Reuben]
