Bewted mate dont worry ive got you some they are on eggs at the moment there is just 2 there that i had before the others are new ive got 8 that you can have at the moment and if i get any more you can have them too.

Bewted mate i told you you could have what i was going to give away and you can im just after a pair of old german owls so will swap these for them, i lost 6 of my male birds that were on egss 3 days ago and have had to throw the eggs out what i will do as well is give you some of my young that i breed as well but before i do Jimmy 68 is going to swap some of hes young with mine, whatever young i breed and dont fancy mate you can have i will pm you when they are all ready to go so dont worry i havent forgot you when i promise something i dont go back on it.

Tomo, i'll sort you a pair of OGO's as long as your not in a hurry for them as they are in heavy moult at the moment and some still sitting.

Phil

PJC Yeah that would be great just let me know when they are ok to go and ill sort it out about getting these to urs and picking the OGO up, my mate will drop me over no doubt

Tomo, some of those birds look like Wolverhamton tumblers, am I right? If so what sort of flight / tumbling do they do? Cheers.

the mags are wolverhampton ones they are highfliers they dont tumble as much as others but they are beautiful fliers

Hi tomo

I can sort you out with a few pairs of ogo's, i'm selling up, how many pairs do you want?  I thought you were going to have a pair or two off me anyway and I was going to have the badges?

Lloyd

yeah if you have got any mate how much you selling the pairs for.

£30, thats what I payed for them.

Lloyd

i will let you know mate as ive got a few coming.

PJC IS GIVING ME SOME OF HES

Thats nice of him!

yeah going to pick them maybe the weekend

Me and phil were suposed to be doing a swap for ogo's

Quoted from tomo68

yes you did tome and very thrilled with them too !!!

can still swop lloyd, but yours aint a lot of good without rings. My wife only keeps a small team so most are shown, no room for unrung stock.
We have given most of our direct German rung birds away over the last couple of years to make room for their young to show and use for stock.

Phil

phill mate my daughter cant wait to get the birds shes so excited

We can swap some of my older NPA rung birds i have one pair, a blue bar male to a red bar female, plus they will be unrelated to yours and this year they threw red chequers and cream chequers.

Lloyd

still waiting to hear if we are going to see pups on Sunday but will let you know.

thought you said you were getting rid of all yours Lloyd!

ok mate if you do will you be coming down m42 if so we could meet at a service by birmingham if you want

Lloyd

didn't think you could get chequers from bars
thought bars could only breed bars???

Quoted from pjc

thought you said you were getting rid of all yours Lloyd!

I'm getting rid of most of them, bar one pair and if we swap, I will keep the pair I have off you if they are nice colours.

Lloyd

I breed chequers from bars all of the time.  I bred two bars from two chequers and I bred 2 chequers from two bars.

yep the pups are at Peterborough so will prob go m50, m5,m6,m1

either m5 m6 would be great

Well spotted redcheqhen!

Fact,you cannot breed chequers from barred birds.This is because chequer is dominant to bar so a pigeon with a chequer gene has to show it.
You can get barred birds from chequers but not the other way round.

very true

I have a blue cock paired to a blue ch hen, all but one youngster are blue ch and all hens, the one blue they bred was a cock, but all they mostly breed are hens and blue ch.
