Great start to your season Jim well done

If the weather holds out this week they will be ready to hit the skies come Saturday, i KNOW i won't be winning but i canny wait anyway

God help them, that's them hooked for life now!! Well done to them both and i hope there are Lots more wins.

Sounds very like the bop has had a go, hope those missing in action turn up soon.

What about the Official result?? it surely must be ready by now.

Does anybody know how the sale done? I left a £60 commission on Davie Jamieson's but never got the call to say i'd got it. It was the Best Yb i've picked up this year at the sales i have attended, and that's been a right few, and if i was more flush with cash i would have left a better bid. Ps. He brought this bird to the sale personally despite his Mum being on her death bed, because he had made the commitment to the SNFC he felt obliged to come with it, a true gentleman and man of his word. The rest of the family stayed at her bedside and Davie went straight back after delivering the doo, i hope things go easy for the family when the time comes.

Very Very good

Had a very good toss on the Newmains van this morning, (Innerleithan 35mls) 1 down but could turn up yet as it was only his 2nd time in a basket.

Ps..... 2nd toss today, Innerleithan which is about 35mls i'd guess. Another latebred Ck missing, but i expect heavy losses with them when i start them out, its the 6/8 that are left for the 2yr old stage that count.

Thats ok, i would give them a strepsil at the same time

Very interesting Fifer, what affect does it have??

Naw its a the roundabout after Kilkadzow but before Carstairs juntion, its probably got another name but around here we just call it the Forth roundabout.

It was like watching the video of the Peregrines attack Arona Classic race birds, if it wisnae MA doos i would have been mesmerised by the way they worked the batch, Doos didnae know where to turn.

Had my doos in the basket today for their first toss of the year, within 90 SECONDS there were 2 Peregrines all over them, Result?.........2 yearling ck's down, one of which is out of my good hen, the other a first timer who's hen just laid her 1st egg yesterday. What a fechin start to the season. For the benefit of others this happened at The Forth roundabout so you might want to swerve it.

Well done, you've done a great job of it

Can you no take over one during the night and get squatters rights

I'm on it and log in now and again to escape the insanity on here

I collected 4 youngsters from Rab tonight, every one of them in Top condition, full bodied and silky feathers, already Vaccinated for me too!! Cheers Mate i will try to do you justice with them.

You really ought to get the dookit up off the ground, at least 12 inches, to let air under the loft and keep dampness away. Doos look nice and settled and in good condition, and the dookit looks great inside too, atvb for 2011.

Cheers, £50 is a bit Steep for a squeaker so i hope it does me, and its self, justice for the buyer.

I make that 26 so far, 40 would be a nice round number though

I put what i thought was a particularly nice young Red Jan Theelen x Jan Aarden but don't know how much it went for as i was working today. Anybody know how it went??

Looking good, what strain are the Cheq Ck's? if you don't mind me asking

This is in the garden where i stay, NOT at the lofts. If they turn up at my lofts (2 miles away) its time to act

Here is the 2011 litter of Cubs under the hut out the back.
