Hi
Stop spreading anti Lanarkshire propaganda Jim Lennon is a first class convoyer and the BIRDS WERE WATERED
Yes Wincanton was not a good race for some and a good race for others
All the other feds you speak of were on the East side of the UK in case you don't know were Wincanton is it is on the West side of the country

and where was the wind from  the west and to say the birds come to the solway  think it not to far east to west say 15mile either side with west in the wind  i thik they are more likly to fly east  coast as they aint going over the top of no mountains and to say any thing about geting a drink i am not  demeaning the guy looking after the birds mate,  but do the  pigeons in that transporter  hear the water runing  because when you train your birds to drink
they  hear and see you pour the water now that might not sink in whith you, but that could be part of the problem

Hi Bart
If they did move why ? Been done it the past to replenish the water tank if no running water on site
Yes the tank is mounted in the roof at front of trailer were feeding is stored holds app 200 gallon the water is changed
every 3/4 hours
The simple answer is we should have been at Eastbourne with the SNFC
The answer to why our returns are not as good as the SNFC dont have one only theories
Cheers

hi homer
if they did move and the water tanks never worked then the birds might have been short of water
i got 2-4 well out race time
but should we as members not be looking to transport our bird's in the best conditions i reckon our baskets and transporter are past there best
maybe a large levy per member is the way forward
thanks for the answer homer49
i only have the birds welfare at heart not out to start a witch hunt

Hi Bart
The water is gravity fed only need to open 2 valves
YES
YES
Your welcome
As I do

Bigda has a point regarding we the fancier teaching our birds to drink in the basket
Have 46 1st round y/bs and they have had 3 weekends in the basket on returning to the loft on Sunday night 12 are still
not drinking in the basket so back they all go this weekend
