right for 1... we have 6 pair of stock birds and we cannot breed enough to fill the 2 lofts 2.... i am looking for pigeons genuinly ( not scamming off anyone )
i think chris as got the wrong end of the stick with me, he offered me two next year from his van reets but as the topic was for more than 2 i had to decline his offer ( bit of a no brainer really, why would i send for 2 @ £30 for amtrak + the price of the birds when i can send amtrak in for 6 and pay a bit extra + the price of the birds.
without boreing members my offer was vanloons you want 50 for daughter you can breed these youerself youer a good flyer as results show in youer partnership on other site you want birds freee or am i wrong if someone comes on wanting 50 birds for 5 year old that has father who forgot to metion partnership its odd that is what i picked up on if youer peying my apolergise but missleading yesssssssssssssss
well the wife lost 8 stock birds for me i have no old birds at all and i would just like to say thank you to rembrant2coo who offered me some late breds of which i declined as he was to far from me and that i only posted stock as missing incase anyone got them in not to recieve any birds as to date no stock have been reported and to me people who ask for birds are wasting there time because fanciers are not going to give good pigeons away thats just my oppinion and not ment to offend anyone

fanciers on this site will give good pigeons away, a common mistake is to beleve that gift birds are rubbish[not all of the time anyway!!!!]your views should not offend anyone we are all allowed our views,but trust me on this one there are guys on here who will help out if they think/know you are "legit"
to learn from your mistakes is easy to learn from someone else' is harder.[bismarck]
Agree 100% with chrisss gift birds will often be the best.there are a lot of good honest fanciers out there but sadly getting less all the time.far to many dealers out to make quick buck.how do we put a stop to it.
some of the best birds i ever owned where gifted to me from friends of my father one of the reasons i got their best was because i never raced against them as i was racing in an other area i was also taken to their lofts and offered to pick what i wanted them off and advice on how to fly them this was 30 years ago plenty good birds given away free

30 years ago fanciers would give you them not these days now all you get is NO youre racing in same fed as me that is why i say you need to go out of town for birds and to a small team fancier thats winning week in week out you have to nowadays to beat your club m8's our club sec has won all but 2 races brilliant flying but same question to beat him you have to go out and buy everything cost more nowadays and thats why so many fanciers call it a day

that is sad but true, i got birds from guys on this site, no one local would give/sell or loan birds , no one owed me a thing and as far as i am concerned "killing" them next year[the club] will be fitting, i only hope i can be as generous to some one, as total strangers were to me of this site

Ive lost count of winners ive bred and gave to friends same club and same fed and i can honestly say i got as much pleasure as they did.if you cant give your best why bother giving at all.
well all as i can say i would never give a bird or donate to a sale any bird that i would not keep myself or i thought was no good and neither would most fanciers but the problem is you get the birds not the fancier and there are plenty good guys out there who are only too willing to help new starters these in my opinion out weigh the bad
