Members 2018 Breeding Season,

Thrushes can be hit or miss,
there are several factors involved,
Because they are ground birds Coccidiosis can cause loss of birds, the adults tend to manage to cope with it but youngsters cannot. Another problem is the males not carrying on feeding the youngsters when they leave the nest. Another reason is the male gets territorial when the female goes to nest again and so the youngsters dont get fed or he drives them away making them hide up and afraid to come out to feed.
A good Belgian friend and thrush breeder told me with Thrushes if you get a good male that feeds the youngsters you will do well but if you get one that dont you will struggle to breed any youngsters.
