  1. Just sent you mine Ian. Su 10 L 8241
  2. The hardest part of the competition is getting the Yb to races without losing it, so if you lose yer doo ye lose yer money. JMHO.
  3. Aldo is doing 1957.07 ypm with his first doo. He pooled ONE pigeon in both Cambusnethan & Morningside and Newmains, you guessed right, it is his all pooler first over the pad so that is the Accumulator away in both clubs I'm doing 1947 ypm in 4TH place. Very unusual for me to get a ticket under 150mls but i'm very pleased to get off the mark for the season
  4. Aye, she's a cracking looking woman, her sister wisnae too sore on the eyes either
  5. I would have ran as well!!
  6. i don't like East winds, ma Da before me didnae like them either. For that reason i only sent 13 instead of 45ish, i'd rather jump them into 100mls next week when hopefully the wind will have changed.
  7. 301 different birds killed and the RSPB aided by the Police etc, are Protecting the one's doing the killing, just about sums this country up these days.
  8. A sad day for the Jamieson family, my thoughts are with them all and in particular Davie as i spoke to him at the SNFC sale recently about how ill his mum was. RIP.
  9. I widnae watch ma brothers wedding on a Friday during the season, i'll be at the doos all day trying to come up way something to catch up with Budgie this week I do however hope they have a Very Long and happy Marriage, just as i wish for all young couples starting out...
  10. The Van goes to Elsrickle on Thursday's, was Innerleithan yesterday, and it only took 40 mins into the Neuk

    Sparr Hen

    Hen Sparrow Hawk attacked my doos at the loft today, young and old birds out together and it missed everything This was the first attack this year but i was hit umpteen times last year. Anyway, this happened at 2.45pm and it seems to always happen to me around 2.30pm give or take. Does anyone else find they are attacked at this time of day or Consistently at a different time of day??
  12. Jose Mourihno's motto is Win At All Costs, when he faces a superior opponent his players try to stink the game out and maybe snatch a winner on the break. They done it in the cup final when Ronaldo scored in extra time to win the cup. That was perfection in Jose's eyes, just how he planned it. GREAT manager that he is though, i canny see how he can overcome Barcelona.......BUT football is a Funny Old Game!!
  13. Hi Anna, thank you for trying to help out with this pigeon. If you can post all of the letters and numbers on the ring, starting with the first letter followed by the numbers we should be able to help you out
  14. Most lofts split their team, in one fashion or another, and it allows those not ready for week 1 to send them in race 2 without having to send them over 100 mls for their first race of the season.
  15. East wind usually means high velocities and heavy losses. Nothing in nature likes an east wind because it is the Coldest and they don't like that. Next time there is a reasonably strong East wind have a look in the nearest fields to you and you will see the Cattle standing with there back side to the wind, they don't even like it!!
  16. I missed that toss last week and wasn't pleased with ma self for no going, so i sent 40 this morning and those who weren't away today will go with Aldo tomorrow.
  17. My 2 are still there, Blue Ck was 2nd to loft on Saturday ( but i was nowhere) and the hen hasn't been racing yet.
  18. I got my first doos at 11.10am, 6 together. After that they were dropping out the blues ten a penny, great toss and no casualties
  19. Aye 2% of its offspring
  20. I always put it down to the Moult taking its toll on the birds system so leaving them susceptible to infection. But that is an opinion not fact, not that i know of anyway.
  21. I know someone who didn't agree with it and refused to inject his doos. He lost the lot in one month, November. I remember because i also konw someone who missed them only ONE year and he lost his entire young bird team, ALSO in November. For the sake of about £28 i'll Never risk it.!!
  22. I think you have identified what is wrong,,,,,,your doos probably don't like the roundabout system. Pair them up and they'll soon be back to their best. JMO.
  23. Nor me neither
  24. Anybody know the result??
  25. Due to the way the immune system develops in Yb's, they should be injected against PMV at 20 to 22 days old, for maximum effect on them.
