Im in process of switching to a bigger loft. I currently have a hen sitting on two eggs, due to hatch in a week or so. I am curious on how old the babys will have to be before I can move them to new loft?

Thanks

WiskeyJaR

yes Windy, Dutchess is a L.Munsterlander

I have been talking to folks on a 'Munsterlander forum and they said same thing, 'Munsterlanders tend to mature slow. Guess its time to slow down a bit.

Thanks folks. Dutchess is not fixed, just finished her 1st season end of last month, so I dont think it would be that....but maybe. I didnt think I had been training her all that hard, just 10-15 minutes 1-2 times a day. Will let her have a few days off to see if that helps any. I had been letting h...

Dutchess, now a year old, has quite working in her training seesions. A week ago she was responding great to the basic obed. commands, doing good on her points, retrievals and such. So far this week she just will not focus on the training at all, will not come when called, wont heel worth crud. I ha...

Thanks folks, Thats what I thought, just wanted to make sure before I end up with a bunch of confused birds... :roll:

I know this topic has been posted before, but me search is not finding anything :( I am in process of building a bigger coop, new coop will be built about 20-30 feet to the side of current coop. Question is, how long will the pigeons have to stay in new coop before I can turn them lose again? Will t...

I was reading an european dog forum, and they had a couple pictures of a "FOX RED LAB". Was the color of a Visula. I had never seen a red lab before, they looked good in the pictures. Question is...is the "red" lab a breed color standard...or is it maybe like a "Blue" wiemer....I would think they wo...

WiskeyJaR

Great looking pup Dennmor.

WiskeyJaR

I like the new look...just one thing....wheres the green?

WiskeyJaR

my understanding is basicly the Large Munsterlanders came from the german longhair pointers, there is lots of debate as to the exact orgins. The Small Munsterlanders from my understanding, which isnt very much :roll: is a totally seperate breed from the large. The Large are Black while the Small are...

WiskeyJaR

Congrats on a job well done

WiskeyJaR

I have same loft, I started the loft just a couple months ago. Had 10 birds to start with, after roughly 3 weeks, I just opened the door and let them free. That night when I went to close the loft, I had 6 birds in loft. I got my birds from Don, I was lucky as they where alreadyused to the bobs. Bet...

WiskeyJaR

Welcome, from sweethome. lots of good hunting Ive heard down around K-falls.

WiskeyJaR

Just curious, is Amos a Small Munsterlander?

WiskeyJaR

WiskeyJaR

WiskeyJaR

WiskeyJaR

sorry to hear, hopefully things will work out for the best. Will keep good thoughts agoing.

WiskeyJaR

Nice looking dogs.

WiskeyJaR

my L.M. pup at 9 months would chomp any and all birds she coould ahold of. Working with frozen birds and commands, she has gotten better the last couple months.
I would think as he matures, he may grow out of the chomp phase.

good luck,
WiskeyJaR

WiskeyJaR

hehe I got a wally world special, a 21 speed "mountain bike"....think it would hold up. :roll:

Really sounds interesting...does your bikes come with airbags...lol

WiskeyJaR

That looks like fun.....in me younger years

WiskeyJaR

come on over Don anytime, Bring the boys 'nd Ill show 'em what REAL trees look like....HAHHAHAHA

WiskeyJaR

Took Dutchess to me local gun club's hunt test this past weekend. was just a fun test put on by club for club members only, wasnt an "offical" type test. Test was based on the N.A.V.H.D.A. system, several club members are Judges. Test consisted of a small "heeling" course, pup has to stay at knees o...

Welcome Steve, (waves from the valley) good folks here.

WiskeyJaR

I have read such things as grapes being harmfull to dog, renal failure they say. Also Onions, Chocolate, (I knew this already) and macadamia nuts . The report said they all could be fatal to dogs. http://www.snopes.com/critters/crusader/raisins.asp "Raisin the alarm" I have never heard this before, ...

WiskeyJaR

The pork liver holds together better than the pig liver.

Ummm not for nothing, but aint pig an pork the same thing?

WiskeyJaR

thats the exact style Im using, except the aviary on mine is is lots bigger. 4'x6' I had 10 birds in there when they started to lay eggs. Works great.

WiskeyJaR

11 months...we still have debates every now and then as to who actually is the trainer and who is the student. :roll:

WiskeyJaR

heck there is a TON more Griff talk then Large Munsterlander talk. But what the heck, what works for an GSP or a GRIFF will also work for a L.M. so I continue to read and learn

WiskeyJaR

Great pics, good looking pup

WiskeyJaR

great pics thanks for sharing

WiskeyJaR

This is the local state collage "vet school" who is doing the testing. My vet, plus the one I went to for a second opinion, both suggested these folks as they have the lastest equipment. Call to make apointment, they said it was 90 dollars to just for consultant, then go from there. I'm just looking...

WiskeyJaR

has anyone had an ultra sound and or an EKG done on a dog, if so, what is the average price? I have one scheduled for this coming tuesday. Doctor told me its 90 dollars just to walk in door to talk to them, then price goes up from there. Was curious as to the "ball park" figure that I would likly en...

Im beginning to think I live under a water fall here in the Valley of Oregon. going on the 15th straight day with rain

Although this morning I can see the sun....YEA HEY :roll:

WiskeyJaR

Glad to hear ya got him back

WiskeyJaR

Thanks folks, Dutchess so far shows no signs at all of the murmur affecting her normal life. She runs all day with no apparent problems. Vet has suggested an ultra sound for further testing. Unforantly cant afford that right now. Realistically, can I, or should I even, aspect the breeder to help wit...

WiskeyJaR

Thanks folks. As far as breeding, always thought it would be "nice" to have a young pup to "carry" on....but then to breed I would have to jump threw a bunch of hoops for the breed standard, and really didnt want to do all that. So to be honest, the breeding aspect really a mute point. Have let the ...

WiskeyJaR

"x-ray" is my word not Vets, cant spell the word he used

) Any ways it envoled going to state colleage for the testing. described it like an mri type machine. (shrugs)

WiskeyJaR

Took Dutchess to different vet today for a second opinion. Same result :/ Report from second vet said the murmur is very slight, hard to find. For you vet types out there, """ Heart: Auscultation reveals G2/6, Systolic, Murmur on left side of thorax. Pronouced sinus rhythm makes auscultation a littl...

WiskeyJaR

nice coloring but wheres the hair?... :roll:

Is a great looking pup for sure.

WiskeyJaR

Just to be clear, the vet only listened to the heart through one of them ear scope thingies :/ No other tests have been done so far. I have not seen any problems with exercise or coughing yet. Hopefully, like others have said, it will never become an issue. Just kinda took me by surprise when the Ve...

WiskeyJaR

same vet clinic, different doc.

WiskeyJaR

I have a 10 month old pup that today the vet discovered had a heart murmur. Vet said it was minor at moment, but could develope into something worse at anytime. The question I have is....Should I except any compensation from the breeder? Or is a heart murmur just a 'fact of life' so to speak? The 'c...

WiskeyJaR

Took my 10 month old in to vets today for a scratched eye. After listening to heart, vet said Dutchess has a small heart murmur. Said it not a problem now, but could become a problem at anytime. Has anyone else dealt with heart murmurs? How did it affect the dog's life? Can a dog devolope a heart mu...

WiskeyJaR

Trekmoor, No,dog retrives fine, just chops the heck out of the bird. The bird is chewed in half by time she returns to hand...well almost. I have heard that FF will fix the chopping issue. I also have heard its easy to screw up a dog bad on FF if you dont know what your doing. I dont :wink: She retr...
