Seperate 'cause you don't want to be flying your breeders while they are nesting anyways. ---------- Kel. Rum-30 Lofts

Val is correct on the Bull breeding or ( polygamy breeding ) breeding as it is best known as. There have been several posts on this subject that you should be able to find in the archives. Look them up. Joe ---------- J.M.Urbon Lofts A Proven Family of Spinners http://www.freewebs.com/jmurbonlofts/
