Post Mules

#1  Gary 06 July 2010, 07:05 PM

Hi,

I'm new to this site, having only bred a few Fife canarys this year in my first breeding season.
Whilst I know you will all say any breeding is a challenge, is there an elusive mule which we would all like to breed? I was thinking of adding maybe a bullfinch or goldfinch to try some muling next year. I only have a small set up with four double breeders and a flight so thought it maybe wise to go for a challenge. Ideally I would like to use my Fife hens.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Gary

if using canary hens dont use bullfinch cock as they dont seem to prove fertile
