I bet she can hardly find a mate ! most of the golden eagle males are too scared of her !

[Matthew Patching]

Yeah 1.5lb meat in her crop, another 3lb running through her digestive system, could be huge I spose.

[StormRider]

Lol on your own :lol: only kidding ya know i would wez, we cant trust ben ay!
Tiger was weighed when she got to our house at around 18lb baring in mind she had not eaten in around two days! tiger is the biggest i have ever seen and she has the definate im going to kill you! When the guy was hunting with her she was taking out dogs that weighed in at around 8 stone hence why she was banned from all eagle meets lol, i wouldn't want to mess with her:!:

Cinnibar has topped out at over 17 lbs during the moult.Not the biggest but a lump of a bird nevertheless.
