The last week or so I've seen multiple hatches with varied size around my area. I did however see a hen and a chick hit by a car very near to my house. Best I can tell though the remaining chicks seemed to have regrouped with another hen, maybe her and her brood were close by in the ditch. We...

Happy Father's Day gents without you we wouldn't be able to pass this beautiful thing we love on to the next generation. I hope that you are all reminded today of what a special privilege it is to have some one look up to you and call you "Dad".

I posted this in another section on the forum but thought maybe it would get more attention/interest here. I'm in need of some homing pigeons in the near future, does anyone know where I can purchase some. If I have to go the catching route how does one go about catching them. I know too that...

Just curious if any of you use three hole dog boxes for your dogs. I am looking at expanding my kennel here soon and when I look at most manufacturers box dimensions they seem quite small on the inside. I will be transporting GSPs and am curious to what you guys have for box sizes and what...

I'm in need of some homing pigeons for dog training in the next couple of months. Anyone know where I can get any? If I have to catch them how do I go about doing so? Thanks in advance.

Does anyone have any experience with them or know anyone who does? I'm looking into various breeders right now for when I return. Any advice would be great.

I lost a friend today one that I will never replace. She was what I called my flower child, she was a lover and for that I will always love her. Truely a one of a kind. She went way too young as so many do. She was one that taught me so much. She would do so much for so little at times. It often...

Has anyone ever heard or experienced this in your dogs? It has had me quite worried and I actually thought I was going to lose a good friend. I have ran the gamut of possibilities from ehrlichia to immune mediated disease. My once healthy 60# female Gsp is down to 46#. She is not out of the...

They may not be Bobwhites but there are quail here in Dubai believe it or not. I actually think they look closer to a Chukar. This doesn't really help with the fact that I won't be partaking in the KS season but, it does give me some viewer enjoyment so to speak. I will try and get a picture or...

Ladies and gentlemen tomorrow when you find yourself doing whatever it may be for the holiday be sure to take a moment to remember what this day is really for. For those that have gave us the rights we enjoy both past and present.

For me I am still optimistic about the upcoming season but with every day that goes by without rain I grow increasingly worried. Birds or no birds I will try my very hardest to keep my dogs afield with birds in front of them. After all they can't read forecasts of any kind and at the end of the...

Just curious what others are doing to pass the time until opening day. How many are trialing or something of the like? I am optimistic about the weather and nesting conditions this year. I have been swimming the dogs a few times a week and making sure they get their run out in the evenings.

Thanks for the great sunrises/sunsets on some great bird cover. Thanks for the raw smells of the outdoors. Thanks for letting this tired guy feel like a kid again. For all you guys still in KS take care of her and I look forward to my return home again in a couple of months. The desert won't be...

I have a question for you guys. Most of you know of my situtation, me being deployed to Iraq and all. My question is this, yesterday I was talking to my dog trainer and he mentioned that in December he would most likelly be going to help a friend guide hunts on his game farm in Liberal. He...

Lets here some of your greatest memories from afield. They can be anything from the first time a child harvested his/her first bird, your pups first real bird, or any other good memory you may have. This should be a good time and I look forward to reading what some of you guys have to say.

I am anxiously waiting my return from the sandbox back to good ole Kansas. Although I wont make it back for the opener I will be back the week following. Sorry to post a post for no particular reason but my excitement is too much to just keep in. A year and a half is too long to be here that...

I posted this in the main forum but thought that it would be best here. I am currently deployed to Iraq but stationed at Ft. Riley and I got there late in the year and wasn't able to really go door to door asking for permission. Just wondering if anyone may know of some good places i.e...

I am currently deployed to Iraq but am stationed out of FT. Riley. I got there quite late in the year and didnt have much time to go door to door. I hunted a lot of public/wiha areas with marginal success. Just curious if anyone knows of some good places i.e. counties or parts of the state...
