I have never been one to have knowledge of colours Saddleback the blue cock I was 2nd open with paired him to his aunt also a blue First youngsters were blues Then they threw a silver mealy which is a beauty As they were running with others I wondered if another cock had treaded the hen I then put them into a section by themselves and they produced a silver mealy and a silver blue Absolute stunners with dark feathers in there tails Next nest back to blues The hens parents are a blue cock and blue Cheq hen saddlebacks grandparents His parents are two blues Seems they have thrown back many generations ?

Never going to be easy flying into Ayrshire with it being furthest west Nith Valley seems to be causing your birds big problems and needs addressed Winter would be ideal When your birds cross over further north and come out of the moffat water and fly over my loft heading west they then have crap country to cross before hitting civilisation Good luck my friend

That answer to that is a simple Yes Yes we suffer losses but who doesn't For birds to win they must come On Line Minute you start trying to get them to come round corners the race is already Won Jmho

Just received pallet today 2days from order to delivery Cannae beat that Knackered carrying it into the house

Great night getting to bed in the wee small hours Good laugh holding up the strictly scores for big rabs dancing Not a penny in the wallet this morning have to start saving for next year now

SICK

I am going into next season with the best team of yearlings that I have owned since starting in 1972 Will watch how I go with them with the aim to get as many as possible to the 2yo stage 40 hopefully My 2 and 3yo will not enter the race basket till the weather heats up probably Lymm 141mls When I moved here I had aims win at club then fed then section in national With these achieved my goal is to clock a stormer from the gold cup I have set myself a 3 year target Another huge plus my mate john whom I built a loft to house stock birds bred them for me this year However I bred him a team of 26 wonderful youngsters which fly the sky's for up to 3 hours Having returned the stock we will now put in johns application for club membership John will also succeed and give both teams a greater chance of success racing into this area Keep us both on our toes come Saturday's Competition at its best between friends

Men against boys at present

With Lanarkshire going East I have only ordered 1 Ton of feeding instead of my normal 2 Lol

Should have won that Bad substitution putting fletcher on for Naismith he just wanted to go backwards Hutton dreadful error for first and skinned for second Should have beaten the Germans and the poles Same old story If If If

Good Man Good Pigeons

The Germans were far the better team and should have had the game wrapped up Sure we can Win Would be a tad happier with a class striker

Happy Birthday Graham

Got to Agree Davy My view for what it's worth would duplicate what you are saying Your results speak for themselves from the distance Good pigeons worked on a good system coming on line Jock Alston's Renstrie Reward came past me that night South of lockerbie whilst I was training youngsters Direct on line up the motorway As you rightly state Portsmouth on the south coast is the line pigeons will hold coming from the channel Great idea yearling Derby Plenty of flat countryside before they hit the Pennines Should be back at Rennes that's part of our history Lofts from all over scotland won from there But the bottom line Bloody Good Pigeons

Any mixtures that are left I mix them altogether Widowhood,Gerry plus or similar and a protein mix Usually kept in during winter but will change this year and let out on good weekends Just clean water changed as often as possible Oil on food from Co Op Gtx is best lol With touch Brewers yeast Birds already have that wow factor

Most sensible programme that's been posted fair to all Straight down the middle Well done Davy

Good Read By a Good Man

Bad Crack Walter Sure there is some freedom of information act that they must disclose a name to you if you ask Glad the birds are ok You are correct only interested in the spread to the poultry industry Would agree vaccine not doing its job the strain has mutated I go every year to the presentation 6 of us Friday till Sunday Look forward to buying you a Atb Mick

Heard a Rumour Walter B Is putting up a Free tab at the Glynhill for his Basics Pals

I have the Bradwest Aircap for lofts And 2 at work for insulation jobs First Class Faultless Wish I had used them years ago Money well spent

I know who has them Colin ,but would have to speak to him first as he is an elderly gentleman He got the originals

Very true Derek We used to take days cladding a roof with hammer and nails Do it in hours now with Nail Guns

Leave the cocks in a section and let them settle to a box through the winter is ideal Close off half the box and put the hen you fancy pairing to that particular cock in with food and water Leave for couple of days the cock will fly up and down from his box showing to the hen When you see they are keen let them together in a closed box keeping an eye all is well with food and water Then let a couple of pair out the cock will take his mate back to the box Simples

Happy Days Indead Sure the politicians promised us better days back then also
