can we set up a thread for new starters giving them sum tips on how to start and things to watch out for and just some general tips really noting to hard to understand cause i can see a new starter or maybe some one think of getting pigeons coming on here and see us talking about medicines diseases and all sorts could blow there mind a bit and scare them off and this thread be edited by some one or a few pll and locked so it doesnt get too confessing and when a new starter comes on we can direct them to the thread i think it would be a good idea

I can only speak for myself so I would like to publicly thank all you guys and especially Chris for the responses I have received on this site. I have raced doos when I was in my teens ( oh! the memories ) but I do not have the time to train racers so I'm coming back with Catalonian Tumblers coz I fell in love with these wee doos when I read of their plight. They are in danger of being wiped out (some of the colours/patterns have already been lost) due to the Spanish civil war and that B#@&*$D General Franco. You guys (total strangers) have taken the time to help me out. This thread just says it all about Chris and the rest of you guys. It's all about the love of pigeons, now, then and in the future. I take my hat off to you all. Chazz.

Great idea Phil

I think as far as helping out new fanciers you will struggle to find a better site.

There is so much info on here and other sites that new members can just get totaly confused.
I think that new members are much better off learning 1st hand from a mentor!

i struggled finding any fanciers in my area a mentor would have been great i dont know what i would have done without this site. The way the world is with kids i think most fanciers if approached by a young fancier they asume the worst and dont want to know.

i had the same problem "locally" no one will help, you might be flying against them, this site was/is a godsend for newstarters and restarters
