posticon my birds


hi, i am mick from norwich norfolk, and have just joined the forum, i have kept what the old timers in norwich call osbournes for 60 years they are basically three quarter norwich croppers and quarter racing homer, although the crops are quite large they can fly really well and have never had any with sour crop, i have mixed in a pair of jiennese pouters with a few of them and they seem ok, my father before me also kept them and flew them regually bringing in strays with them, these birds are as hard as nails and i never treat them for anything.
