    The hatch is happening in NW IA and replanting plots.

    I would love to have that problem. If you need any help with it this fall let me know.

    Constantly hungry

    My lab would act hungry 10 minutes after eating the whole bag of food if he got the chance. My setter was losing weight on full feed until I found one he liked. All dogs are different but labs are well know for their endless appetite.

    Trouble with Whoa teaching

    That is correct once pigeons have established "home" (usually by breeding) they will do all they can to fly back there. Since yours have chicks you could probably use them for training but I would definitely wait until the chick are self sufficient. Either way you will want to make sure your...

    Trouble with Whoa teaching

    She was probably feeling the lower stims before but just tolerating it. I've had stubborn dogs that would tolerate pressure just to be stubborn until I broke their "pressure" threshold, but once they were convinced that it wasn't worth the resistance training went quickly. Maybe she's not being...

    Training eye control/marking

    I have been working with my 4yr old male lab. He isn't registering/remembering where the dummy lands, or isn't marking where it lands. He goes out and scent finds really well, but very often runs right over or past where he just watched the dummy land. Any suggestions for helping him to mark...

    Ticks

    There is fairly strong anecdotal evidence that it fades with time, but I don't know if there is anything clinical showing receding symptoms.

    Switching Inukshuk?

    He's an English Setter and you're right, 59lbs last time I had him at the vet, he's just so much bigger framed than my lab it messes with my thinking.

    Switching Inukshuk?

    This year I fed Innukshuk 30/25 all year. My 65lb Setter gets 2.5-3cups, my (should be) 60lb lab gets 1.5 cups. They are loose outside so they burn more energy than most, especially the setter. They didn't lose any weight that wasn't extra this season. I switched to Innukshuk the tail end of...

    Switching Inukshuk?

    That's what I did last year, but I never had my lab on 32/32, he was on 30/25 the whole season. My setter was on 32/32.

    Any members from NW"ish" Iowa?

    Well I've got Iowa in my bio, but I'm not in your neck of the woods. I'm closer to Missouri than Des Moines, which can make for some challenge when looking for pheasants.

    Quail

    I have seen a few coveys, but I haven't specifically targeted them. The quail I saw this year were all south central, although I heard some while hunting an hour outside Council Bluffs

    Help me plan a trip to NoDak

    Not my experience but I have heard there are a significant portion of the landowners that posted their land just because they want to know who and when, but readily give permission.

    Help me plan a trip to NoDak

    Are you using the ND Game and Fish hunting atlas? If so, the orange crosshatching is for posted areas. Landowners have electronically posted the property as NOT open to public hunting. ND has unique property law concerning hunting.

    First birds of 2025

    That's a nice morning. I went for a couple hours with a friend and saw a few hens. There was some snow down here yesterday but not enough to bunch them up. It looks like that is coming tomorrow, I can't wait.
