Hi, a question to all breeders.
When feeding parent reared Falcons, can you help bring the falcons into condition by feeding smaller rations through the day or do you just feed all the rations at once?
cheers in advance.

With pairs of birds we routinely feed small packages of food through the day as this stimulates the male into food passing Big meal at night try to estimate what they can clear and then the following continue with the small packages, like one chick or mouse about every hour if you can.

A very big thank you griff.
on another note (this is only relevant now 10:30am) the Gos is at the nest on the new forest webcam.
