Bryngwynt Lofts

Thanks everyone for their replies I'll take these into consideration will definatley put on a roof just going to cost it up thanks again

Hi everyone hope to start racing young birds next year yes their are expenses to pay to get started and its not cheap,i remember how i started was been introduced to birds and helping with birds and taking them for training tosses and seeing the birds coming home from races.What a great feeling and hope to experience this with my own birds,I hope to introduce yongsters locally to come to my loft and introduce them to the birds and hopefully come and help and experience the sport.In this way they can experience without the costs of setting up and still keep them interested hopefully.After time they may start up themselves heres hoping anyway.hope you don"t mind me joining in just started on forum

Hello everyone just need some advise putting aviary 8ft x 5ft.But not sure if to put on solid roof or leave it open for birds.What are your thoughts and the pros and cons on this.thanks

Cheers Stevie will try contacting Mutley tomorrow thanks for number

Just getting started will be looking for nest boxes etc,looked up Mutley1 but how do I contact him to get more information,very good prices to what I have seen in papers

Thanks for your reply for advise,you talk about how birds are kept what do you mean by this?the loft ventilation,cleaning vaccinated birds training.please explain don't want to come over thick but if people seem to talk about it.I feel I need to listen and take note of peoples comments and if I don't understand follow this up cheers

Thank you for your comments,all help and advise is welcome.I've been busy getting loft painted and in progress on putting up aviary for birds.weather putting this on hold this morning.8ft by 4ft from what I seen on site it seems best to cover roof so rain can't get onto birds and other birds droppings landing in loft.do you have a aviary?do you or recommend solid roof or clear?

Thank you first of all to replying for the advise,your fantastic offer of a pair of Lambrechts in spring to me is a fantastic gesture to someone you have not met a big thank you.Ihave seen a lot about these birds which seem to perform well,this is a breed 20yrs ago i did not know but it seems to get a lot of press now.You talk about Charity sales about birds not in the pen and getting from top fancier (sorry my ignorance)but if these sales are from away how would i know who were the top fanciers?to make sure i get the right stock.As you say you pass the 55 every fortnight,do you live along the coast?i hope you have had a good racing season.

thanks for your reply,i was thinking on the same lines regarding the dark system i"ll prefer to walk rather than start running to soon take time to learn.Just start on natural as it was years ago seems to have moved on from 20yrs ago.So i think i will take my time and listen to what people say and work out the best way for me.i"ve listened to people talking about start breeding January which to me seems way to early,i don"t remember been this early but it was 20yrs ago.So what you say about April looks better for me personaly.i hope you have had a good racing season and thank you for your reply cheers

Hoping to start racing y/birds next year,I live in Bangor north Wales,hoping to hear from other fanciers on the coast to say which breeds are performing better for this area.any help or comments welcome.thanks

Good evening I hope to start racing y/birds next year.I'm coming back to the sport after having birds as a teenager,but when parents had to move their was no room for a loft and had to get rid of birds.But now I want to start up again would like some advise from people who r racing on the north Wales coast particulay on what breeds r doing well for them.Breeds have changed a lot over the past 25yrs so any info would be welcome I'm in Bangor north Wales. I'm busy getting loft ready now,I'm busy putting a aviary on would you suggest open roof?or clear sheeted roof,where should I be looking for aviary wire?thanks for any help.
