With all the hunting that goes on does anyone know if anyone sells any of the catch. Would love to have some parridge or guinea fowl.

The partridge season hasn't started yet but even then I think they get so few they eat them themselves. I have tried for several years to get partridge or wood pigeon but without success.

However, I have a TC neighbour who rears a few guinea fowl for the table - I will ask if he wants to sell some.

Sorry. He only has 3 left and he is keeping those for some family party. He said if he rears some more he will let me know - but that's not necessary because I will hear them.

Has to be better than £22 for a brace of Grouse!

Sometimes they sell guinea fowl at the Wednesday market in Kyrenia.

Also sell live quail.

The market is situated opposite the Police station. (immigration police).

Thank you Rejela but I was rather hoping for the oven ready type! I don't mind plucking them though, just coulldn't kill them!

Frozen quail in most supermarkets. They are very good.
