Hi All

I just wanted to get some advice on this.

I currently have a first yr male HH. He does everything great, apart from he screams a lot. I tried a lot of things, but one thing that has worked was putting him with a friends HH's. This has pretty much stop the screaming totally (thank god my ears were starting to bleed LOL!!).

But my bird is not a lot of good to me in someones elses weatherings!! I have found one guy who is selling a pair of Harris's which he has been breeding, but they have not flown last year or this. I have been advised that with a refresher course, they should be fine. If anyone has experienced otherwise please let me know.

I have room for two more birds if I build another weathering, but it would be easier for me to take just one bird, as also I don't think 2 people could fly 3 birds together very easily. I wanted to know if spliting a pair which have been together for 3/4 years would have an adverse affect on them in any way?

Any view points and experience would be greatfully reeived.

Many thanks

Each bird will react differently some my not be bothered some will sulk.
Remember if these birds havent been flown you will have to take it easy with them as there muscles have deteriated and when bring down in weight can cause complications as stress levels will be very high.
