That's a shame they did give a great service, I only used them this week to collect the babies from Buster !!! They didn't give any indication that this was on the cards, not sure what the options are now

When they collected them the driver who I had spoken to and was collecting had an issue and someone else came for them, the issue was he went to an address to pick up birds and when he got there there was 30 and none boxed/basketed so took lot longer then there was also another incident not on the same scale though, maybe these had something to do with the decision as it was so sudden
According to Lisa the guy that delivered them to us certainly gave no indication that they were finishing.
Nor upon collection that is why I was wondering if the reasons I said are the cause of such a rash decision, maybe peed em off, would me as well

Very possibly mate, it will make getting reported birds home very awkward and probably very expensive !!
A non fancier around here reported a stray last week and was looking for a local fancier to help her out as the birds owner didn't want it back, unfortunately there will be a lot of more this happening in the future

There was a guy from York yesterday putting out feelers as to collecting up strays and doing deliveries but only in a 50 mile radius of York but was charging between £50 and £75 for this service.
