Buy birds from a racing fancier, not from PIGEON DEALERS. Generations of untested birds will leave you with an empty loft and wallet. THINK before you spend on strain names!

I just love it   we have a real optimist here   if I've ever seen one now. You just hang in there etc   & if things don't improve shortly. You can always get down on your knees & prey .
PS, It has worked for me on the odd occassion, so it's well worth a try   .
Enjoy.
