I would be interested to know about their hunting ability, type of flight etc, i.e are they flown off the fist, or tree, or wing etc... Also what quarry will they take and how much they are!!

no ! never had them , it was a bloke called tony scott who lives 1 mile away who bred them when he had a falconry center, he sold them to sean, and i beleive he still breeds them? if your really interested i could put you in touch? they were big birds, like a very large red tail and in adult plumage, gorgeous.

there is a thread of similar ilk on here......£5-6000 and a chap under the name of bernard on this forum flys one so would be the man to ask.... I think it is the welsh hawking centre that has a breeding pair or 2. hope that helps

There is at least a 4 year waiting list from the guy in wales.! i am luck enough to be getting one this year and hopefully another next year. i would like to get a male first but hey i dont really care both male and female will be stunning.
i was going to put his contact details on but he dosnt want to be contacted as he is not taking any more orders for the forseable future.
falconmews are setting up AHE for breeding but i am nut sure when they will have any available.
there are a few pairs around but no one else is breeding any.
once i get mine at the beginning of august i will start a diary on here so all can see the training and flying. i will be flying a hare,rabbit and pheasant.
