Marvin ~ No problem - I learned alot from some of the guys on
here also but I just don't talk the technical way I guess I'd
say - I was new not long ago as well so I guess I just know what
the easiest explanations to a new person is -- Did they do
pretty good when You set them free ? Wrote down Your # and i'll
give ya a holler sometime - where are You at ? I'm in freezing
cold Minnesota - I put the 30 birds up in the snow this morning
and got my 1st few breaks out of my birds today - I think
because they were afraid to land in the snow ... lol ! always
some little hurdles when training birds but just have to think
of Your own ways of doing shhhhtuff sometimes and it'll work out
for ya - Take care and glad I could be of some help - " Peace "

@ Mike Oldschool# The birds did ok but when they flew they
scattered they flew for about 7 min then about 15 of them landed
on the coop roof and chilled for a while then they all
eventually landed in the grass. Mike do you think its a good
idea to keep letting all fourty of them out?
Im in Dayton, Ohio, I own 7 Barbershops here and the surrounding
areas... Its not yet too cold here its bout 35-40 average, no
snow yet but really wet....... Speaking of wet my coop gets wet
in one corner is that a hazard or can it slide?

Trammel - 1st things 1st - Don't put that wetness off - You'll
get disease and end up with dead birds - 2ndly I'd just keep
flying them all - also once they land on their coop roof give
them until the 1st bird goes to the ground and then Flag that
bird and all the rest back up into the air if they aren't going
back into the coop -- and the next time they come down - give
them a feed call - shaking feed can and whistling works wonders
-- and they should go in the coop -- I only on rare
circumstances will let My birds hang outside to play - can't get
them used to it or else thats all they'll want to do - I give it
to them as a treat - same as us Americans - Turkey day - they
got to play outside - If I am thinking of someone whom is in bad
health ( Norm Drecksel is a living legend whom has recently been
diagnosed as having Congestive Heart Failure - lets all keep him
in our prayers and thoughts ) I will also let my birds hang
outside with me -- just depends on the circumstances --- Just
enjoy them birds - don't make it work - Work is No fun !! If
they are flying in tree's simply try to throw a tennis ball or
something gently near so it spooks them out - they catch on
eventually and should stay with the kit - If you get to
frustrated and can't get the birds up out of the tree's - simply
laugh about it and try next time - that's what I've done in the
past --- now have No issues with it -- ya gotta 1st love these
special little creatures in order to raise them - enjoy them and
like doing it I feel .... Go let em ' out right now - I am again
-- I'm gonna Video this fly with My new camera - I'll try
posting it on here for ya --- Mike

contagious diseases? and what are signs of the contagious
disease? what is PMV and signs of it? How to stop PMV?
