Welcome to our site for the breeding of Goshawks and Falcons, we are a small time breeder
but with a very professional approach only choosing to breed with the best hunting
specimens we have at our disposal and are constantly looking to improve and invest in good
hunting blood stock, our lines are predominently from Don Mosley, Harry Gilbert, Andy
Margereson and Mick Kane who we believe to have some of the top hunting lines in the
country. We also have wild stock imported from Germany and are keen to import from other
EU country's in the future.
Our passion and philosophy is to produce totally 100% parent reared young never
interferring with the natural cycle of breeding, with the young only having human contact
once at ringing. However we have a few pairs that produce more than 4 eggs, the surplus
eggs are taken and incubated and sold into the imprint market,one of the reasons we remove
the eggs is that we have found the males struggle to cover 6 eggs and frequently break or
allow them to get chilled. We could overcome this by taking the male out but we belive he has
a major role to play in rearing the young which all add's up to making the young 100% parent
reared.
We do produce some very nice sized birds; our females around the 3lbs 3 mark and males 2lbs
3, but its not size we are all about- it's that dogged never say never attitude hunting abilaty
you should expect from a gos; the male that's got real balls taking on full grown rabbits and
cock bird's time after time, the female that wants to take a hen bird in flight rather than when
it puts into cover thats the type of bird we wish to produce!
Last year we exported a gos to Spain to an ex-pat, he entered her into a flying trial with 60
other Gos's over three days, not only did he reach the final on the last day but he ended up 3rd
overall Without taking anything away from the falconer the mother and father of this bird
were outstanding hunters and we belive this is passed on geneticly to their offspring giving
the falconer a good start even before training begins,this makes all the headache and
heartache of producing parent reared gos's all worthwhile.
