friends prodrive

very nice. I usually just use a kayak, or I have an otter 2000. No motor. Most places I hunt up here are too shallow. Mostly black ducks, green wings, widgeon and mixed divers buffies, ringnecks and the occasional gadwall ( gray duck down there right?). Oh and of course woodies. That's why my wife is away right now on vacation without me. Lol I burn three weeks a year chasing ducks. I am nowhere to be found come November. Good stuff! My wife used to hunt with me everyday but now I have a 2 yr old boy and she has only been a handful of times in the past two years. Now I go solo

Around the end of the second split u can close your eyes throw a rock and at least one gadwall (gaddy) will fall lol around my parts people don't like them called greys out of respect for the uncommon real grey duck but yeah a lot of folk do call them greys. Ok one more pic then back to gamefowl. Me and my brother in law he's from Kentucky and never been duck hunting so he came down last year and had a great time it was hard getting him out the boat we pulled up to the marsh and I jumped out he was amazed it could be walked on IF you know where to NOT step.

i took a pic of him taking a pic. Ok y'all that's it I digress back to gamefowl. Usually after the day is done I go here and just relax for a lil while

Avairy is about 7ft x 20ft x maybe 8ft tall. I am not sure on the width on the trailer, but the length is 16ft. I hope the trailer width is 7ft but I doubt it, probably 6ft

Maybe get 4 or so landscape timbers cut them at 7'6" place across trailer then set aviary on top of timbers and ratchet strap it down?

any one have old photos of gamefowl or books on raising/breeding gamefowl?

Not a bad idea but the trailer has railing around the perimeter, maybe 2ft high, so it may be too high for that. And the trailer gate acts as a ramp, so its pretty tall too and I'd have to find to hold it so it doesnt drag on the ground. Or I can just rent a flat trailer....

Worst case I dissemble my aviary, which would require grinding off some welds and taking off all shade cloth and wood trim. not fun.

are games good egg layers

game hens are seasonal... they lay from spring to early fall typically, about one egg every other day. They are super broody and great protectors of their clutch.
