tauris - bought ourselves - used it first time young birds last year,,,,using it old birds this yr.

dont forget to change the forum time to BST - member centre - time settings on the left hand side - then tick the ''Daylight Saving Time'' box.

yes but these not on it yet,,,these not long out the nest - 3 weeks

main strain is the old blue busschaerts, but we have hybrects, janssens, and a few direct syndicate loft birds. john not really one for paper work,,,just after good birds. but his loft book goes back to early 80's! and he has the one from before that also! these youngones have been out a few times now. ill get some pics of the lofts for people that havent seen them,,,they not the 'Ritz' of pigeon lofts by a long shot - widowhood cocks in sections of 8 - he is that dedicated that if there is too much wind,,he will let 8 out at a time (windy place and wires around), but john wont change them,and he always says '' you never see a loft of a transporter!'' true aint it! Getting that time of year again,,, breeding over,,,racing just weeks away,,,bring it on!!

cheers,,hope so got more but need my sister to send them to me lol,,,i got a ancient phone!

Some of this years youngbirds in the aviary

Fitted the booster today,, all working ok,,,,, if not a little bit shaper than without. with regards to the number of pads ,,there was a ruling but dont think there is a limit now.

thanks will get it put in today

good question,,,the way the lofts are set up forces this,,,,,our widowhood cocks are in sections of 8 ,, so each section needs a pad and then there is the ''channel'' loft.

we have 7 - '7 sensors' shows on the clock,,,have not added a boost yet and the system seems to be working ok. Would it not show 7 on the clock if something was up?

interested to know how many pads (22'') people with Tauris use without any problems?

the ones for garden weeds are called a ''weed wand''

When are feds up and down starting? 3rd April first race up this way.

yes they were 2 x 1st WSEN

last few mins,,,, 2 young birds from national winning loft!!

These are the birds we are still racing today and topping the fed week in week out,,,john obtained these birds from clwyd lofts in the 70's and they have been winning till last yr ,,,, great birds,,,,,, we call them the blue busschaerts ,, all blues

makes you cringe dont it,,,,,poor lad

got up here this morning,,,and its white, was lovely sunny day yesterday, full cloud this morning

cant send nothing here either

never bought anything so can't comment on quality. think a lot of items are made abroad.

how much are whpu rings??

what i mean is idiots/ fools going upto members of staff and giving them abuse. not on. and i would like you to take a look at the salaries that these members of staff that answer your calls are on, ,, wouldnt say they are generous.

Having just read page 2 of this weeks bhw, i find it utterly shameful that members of staff faced abusive ''members'' at blackpool. The members in question should hang their head in shame. Also those who are ringing the offices. if it is ever found out who these are action should be taken. These members of staff are employees and do not make or pass the rules, most are not pigeon fanciers. disgusting. I don't often comment on politics but when something like this happens i feel i must.
