I know I'm probably saying something others have already posted, but here goes anyway! It's fun getting on birds at daylight, and having that bad dude fly down in earshot, and next thing you know....Boom! With that being said, I take probably 80% of my birds between 10am and 3pm. Hens have left him to nest and next thing he knows is that he's on the market again! In my experience, it's harder to strike a bird later in the day, but the odds of that bird working greatly increase! Good luck with the longer hours and have fun!
