I have both IPE lid and Macassar lids . Ipe is responsible for an opening week Osceola 3 yr old with 16 hens . turned them all around and brought then back by .
Just talked to David on May 15 and he has a few made up now. I cherry picked mine first day in Perry at Show and ran near bout all 60 he made for nationals and really couldn't tell much difference in all of them except for the different sound from the lid material .
