SU10NE7539 anyone interested think its from Peterhead , this bird has been tossed and put in stray basket on friday but was back on monday ! makes you wonder if it ever got sent home .

GB10S57455 came in late tonight has a clip ring on maybe out someones stock loft . Greengairs

hi mate the guy wouldnt give us his address so we asked him to take the bird to a fancier near him ,this he said he will try to do in the next couple of days , but if he can`t i`m trying to find someone who could collect it for me until i can get there for it at the weekend as i don`t drive.

Any doo men on here from Cowdenbeith ? a member of the public picked up one of my ybs of the road there , the gent has been a bit scketchy about what he wants me to do so asked him if he could give it to a local fancier (he knows a couple)to put in the stray basket on friday . i would very much appreciate if any are from that area could keep a look out for it. ring no SU10E22 b bar it should have Blacktongue lofts stamped on flights you can call me on 07715897655. thanks colin grieve.

i thought the same (poor vent)but also found them in the avery (not cleaned for week) but was told it was the yeast content in the droppings ,

fingers crossed he looks on the mend thanks , had a fancier visit the other day seen him in the nest box and said he should be in the show pen lol and thats with a broken leg lol

think you you could be right .

Thought it was mine but mine start at 420 . no got my list so canny help but if no joy on that number call 07715897655 and i will try and help

i had 15 ybs at armadale this morning approx 9 mls got 3 together 1 3/4 hrs later i still am 5 missing it had to be percy as the last one home has lost most off its tail.

thanks for replys he is in a box with plenty bedding food n water so will see how he go`s, as for racing him he is the son of a scottish nat winner so he will go in stock loft if he cant race , he`s a belter of a pigeon too !but they always are that get lost or hurt .

anyone any good at sorting broken leg on a yb !! i would have a bash myself but it is broken right at the top at it`s body , or will it be ok on its own ? in Greengairs ,airdrie

spot on Derek .

had 8 strays on my roof last night 3 were lanarkshire 2 were fife doo`s (could`nt get the numbers ) all were soaked through offered feed but they only wanted to rest all gone this morning . i tossed my ybs in 2 lots 8 mls today 1st lot took 3 hrs (4th toss same place )1 missing , 2nd lot 15mins (1st toss )????? what the hell is happening to them . Greengairs .

you are dead right mick we are a very secret lot ornisol can be given 2 days before basketing so it cant have any side affect !! ps never trained them anyway .

some agree some don`t as was expected ,this was giving as helping hand not as treatment ! but it shows the differance of opinion when you have top fanciers on both sides of the devide. can i ask how many treat for canker/cocci/para before the breeding or racing season ,i personally see no harm in it if thats what the fancier think makes them go.

Thats how i was looking at it mick . i just want to give them the best chance i can when training.

i get what your saying ! but making sure their tubes are clear before putting them through a hefty training program is helping them not harming them surely (i hope ) it is a similar regime before the old bird season and i has never done them any harm . but i do accept your points thats why i put this up for discusion and opinion . they are on ornisol not ornistop sorry .

cheers mate that was my thinking supose, it didnae stop them fying this morning for over an hour but better safe than sorry ,

can i train my ybs while on 4 day coarse of ornistop for respitory ? not racing so am only at the 10 mls stage it would be their 4th toss from there . they are`nt showing any signs for this just thought it best to do now before i take them further. colin grieve

Glad they are all home mick , i had one reported 20 mls from me the guy said it had a broken wing so i said i would go get it at weekend ! gets up next morning it`s sitting on the loft wing hanging but ok.the guts she has shown me i will give her the time she needs to heal.

very well done to mr hodgson has to be worth hearing how he does it time after time , also well done walker&wilson 2nd open clermont 1st 0pen arras on same day fantastic flying again would love to listen to these guys methods !! and both partnerships are gents .

cheers mate
