Wow, all hens that is very unusual Jack but good for you though. Craig

I'm sure there are many people who would like your problem. Good luck in getting some mates for them.

That's something.

I have found that last seasons breeding has produced an excess of females.
I posted earlier that every specie of cup shape nesters produced an excess of hens
My DNA results since then with regard the Weavers etc has also shown a large percentage of hens
in one case 7 cockbirds to 16 hens another 2 c to 7 hens.
This helped greatly.
I just wonder what conditions helped with the welcome in balance.

Can never have too many hens! David Groth does a great job!

Hi, where can you get sexing done please,? Northam, WA

Blimey all hens hey, I'd say that many would much sooner have a lot more hens than cocks as 1 cock could possibly serve 3-4 hens with some species,

Should be easier finding a few cock birds

Be lucky
