The fell did say the Grizzles where grandchildren from something or other but I was excited getting the birds I forgot so I'll have to ask him.
He's also going to send me all the paperwork for each bird and swap them to my loft, I need to get the club sec round to get my loft details as well .

Just spent an hour in the loft with the birds sitting on the floor calling them and shaking the corn tin, after a while they did come down from their perches and start feeding and also drinking, must have got board of me because back up the went on the perches
Once one goes up they all go up great to see hopefully a bit more of the same tomorrow

I should get them around 17th to the 24th August
These one's I got today should have been around the same date but the fella said they where getting older and lively and I might struggle to settle them in the loft if I leave it any later.
I have another 2 sections that I will be working on one I want to use for breeding as I am getting some stoke birds and the other one is to be able to split the Cocks and Hens during race season so I should be ok to quarantine the next lot of birds from the ones I have.

Spot on @tony different sections perfect only issue risk will be respiratory if they separated but sharing the same space within one loft but just monitor don't treat anything without asking the members first on any issues but other than that congratulations mate enjoy them
