Here’s some more great videos from Lavender Hill Lofts in Washington DC. These videos explain Lavender Hill Lofts process during the end of the breeding season.
At the end of the breeding season he allows his pairs to sit on dummy eggs untill they stop sitting on them. He then separates the hens from the cocks and removes all the breeding boxes and installs stick perches. He keeps his breeders seperated on the breeding mix until winter to insure a proper moult. At this time he treats for canker with Emtryl for 5 days.
