As said we all have our own way and methods and if they work for you, even if different from others, they are the right ones for you. You can read what ever you want. Listen to whoever you want. Try whatever you want. Then you need to find what works for you and your birds. Birds managed on one system in one loft, even with success, won’t necessarily work on a different system in another.

what i'm trying to say dev is i look for any weakness in a yb from it's hatched for me if a yb can't see and understand other ybs feeding and drinking then there is a problem i don't really wean by age but by the feathering in the tail and under the wing and by then it should be able to fend for it's self

Yes George i agree with what you are saying and you are right, but in my loft management i worked with what i have always done. Also looking at the amount of youngsters, i was breeding for other flyers they had to be 100% on leaving my care.
