Eggs

Very well done mate, now all your memories of the day will be nice ones. :)

Milk, could have came up with an entirely different interpretation of Cows :lol: :lol:

Hi John jnr, still 8 missing fae 38 sent. I was overdue a stinker!

What age are the dogs?

"Being Realistic" If your realistic you'll know you can't predict which of your team of young birds or yearlings are gonna turn out to be good doos, so you need numbers to wittle down the rubbish. Winning every year would be great but winning when you get to the races you really want to win from is more satisfying, and skilful if you ask me. JMO

Get yourself a trap, then when you know they're gone you won't need to spend your hard earned on energising a fence!

Beef

The other week i had a 2yr old hen came back with an OIL mark on its head! Heard King Billy had more than one in the same nick. Very strange!!

Gravy

prosper

I've got 32 left in the loft from 41 yearlings i started with. 11 were late breds with no training or racing last year. Out of them i have 7 still there, only one has missed a race this year so far.

One i got 1st thing this morning was bleeding like a sheep from the foot. Strange place i thought! Then again it might have cut it on tyhe WALK home! :D :D

Cheers big man i'll give him a bell.

The secretary'y number is 01416418502, his name is Mr Gordon, sorry his first name escapes me just now. Hope you make contact easily.

Does that then infer the Original sire has passed this gene to both the parents of the chocolate i have bred and confirms them as the real parents??

Pretty sue it'll be a hen,the one from the sire to dghtr mating last year, when moulting, grew in white feathers replacing the "choc" feathers it threw, not all but a significant number. This one is doing the same

Aye, think it is,

Which club is it? I've got a lot of the phone numbers with me, but if i don't know it i'll have it for you about 7pm after i lock up this evening.

This doo just came in about 1pm today, anyone know where its from or who's it is?

I left 4 hens at home last night who's vents were open and supple. NONE of them laid! but 2 hens i did send laid tonight, i checked every hen going too. Couldn't be up to them :unsure:

No other explanation, they all get treated the same so they just weren't up to the challenge. budgie is right we've all got 90% s***e in our lofts

Just back from locking up and i'm still short of 10 out of my 38. I'm overdue a bad one, maybe its arrived!

Not sure of the strain but the blood is Ron Williamson of N.I. The problem i have with accepting its from something else is i know the origins of all the ck's in that section as they're all home bred. with no sign of Chocolate in 8 years of having them in ma lofts. I'm flummoxed because i've always believed you can only get 2 blues from 2 blues. Thats why i can only imagine its because the parents are both Pencilled, the hen in particular who is heavy pencil marked.

Wish i had some works to throw a spanner into!! :) :)
