twisted wings

well folks thanks for the positive replies!!! much appreciated, as to bruno obviously you aint got any sort of input on this subject as regards (POULTRY BUSINESS) what the fxxk u on about ?????????????? (MARKET GARDENERS) are you real in what you put in your replies???????? where did i mention any of the above ????????????........... for your statistics bruno my garden is 200 feet long by 40 feet wide at the bottom of my garden to the fence n then to the rear neighbours house is 60 feet my current and only loft is 24x8 which i will add to another 32 footer at some point./

wernt gunna let them mingle prob 10feet apart chickens in a run 15 feet by 40 feet so they dont make a mess of the ground

well some neighbours arnt keen on birds anyway so why not let them go ,,,,,,,, its the advice regards proxy to pigeons i need the neigbours can move!!!!!!

does anyone keep chickens and pigeons in close proximity the reason i ask is my better half thinks we should get half dozen chickens so we can have about a thousand eggs a year home grown sort of stuff but with the bird flu etc would it be stupid n just more reasons for the neigbours to have go sort of speak ????????

dr colin walker recomends it for spraying of loft dipping the birds in it has a 4 month residual effect on lice effective against mosquitoes,pigeon flies,and mites

hi where can you get it from n how should it be used thanks

well folks the north is the hardest route to fly .... you tend not to need to sort your birds out after season,cos generally what you have got left is the best in ya loft, that is not to say you can fly a gudin,but the ones that came have got heart..... well i now fly on the south and have got to revert to race records to see who when and what came where each week ,only bloody thing is they are dropping thick n fast its hard to keep track ,

SORRY FOLKS BUT COULD U BE MORE SPECIFIC RE PROBS???

alf could you be a bit more specific, r,e contact etc

hi i am wanting to see about getting droppings tested but where should i go or who should i use, what have your experiences been? and are there any pitfalls? i.e cant be tested for certain things etc i am within driving distance of retford poultry (libbys) your thoughts please

the reason i ask is that my racing section of birds have feathers missing front of crop, feed frm metal trough always plenty of corn in it. now my stock birds have same type of trough but no signs of feather disturbance???

stupid question how do you know its feather rot,
