    Same here wooden ones are rotting after only a few years and that was after steeping them in creosote for a few days first ! All made with soft wood ? . Looking for something sturdy but light .
  8. Since when do pigeon men care what pigeons like , we send them 600 mls you think they like it ! All boils down to control of intake so barley or beans do the job just like other feeds but some of us are,nt as clever as others so stick to what we have been using for years . Jmo

  11. When I posted this I spoke to 8 very good fanciers who use atx or similar including Frank Bristow , so I went to visit 2 lofts and have to say you wouldn't know there was heating on just a very dry climate inside the loft which is what I aim to have in my loft , I am under no illusion it will not make my birds win but I believe it can help keep loft and birds in good condition. I will let you know how I get on . Ps my national birds will still be left to nature on open hole . Colin

  14. Have had my own programme for birds and gave 6 years to get where I want to be and 4 years in think they are getting better each year , it's been tough but timing on shift from clermont and only dropping one bird from 16 sent to nats give me a reason to be content but my aim is to win a club race in Airdrie club and maybe top fed lol , because I may have to to win club . All best to all and hope you reach your goal .
