  1. and me
  2. When i started with pigeons i had asthma very bad and was advised against having them, however i wore a mask for so long which i found uncomfortable so i now wear nothing and get on absolutly fine not that i would recommend you ue nothing. I think my asthma cleared up as i got out my teens
  3. That would take a lot of dedication
  4. Remind me nearer the time,(i pair up end of Noember) and i will breed you a pair of yb's if you want them. I will be sending some young birds up to Scotland so nearer the time you can share carriage if you wish to save a few quid for both of you

    Stock loft

    Lucky man i settled most of mine off kev and John, should not worry to much there is still a loft close enough for them to trap into.
  10. It is just my personal feeling that this is going no where, pigeon racing with anything is about opinions and i dont think this will be resolved but just carry on and on.
  11. I took the opportunity to talk to Spencer and found him to be a nice chap with his priorities right and a good knowledge of pigeons, i am going to get and have a look at the set up sometime providing the cats are locked well out the way. I think the time has come for all the threads with the falling out to be locked by the webmaster or moderator and for us all to worry a bit more about the pigeons.

    Hope you get a few more reported mate
  13. No he is not a full time fancier as when i went there was no pigeons in the hutch just poo
  14. I know i have the pigeons for after around 250 miles and would not change them until i have took them as far as i feel i can. Out and out sprint is something new to me i have never been obsessed with a 70 mile race but the times are changing and my fed race programme looks like it is going to be suiting one or two sprint specialists so i must move with the times and look at introducing pigeons with that sole purpose. I do prefer longer races but as i said change with the times is required
  15. If buy thas i think it would be through Mick Betts

    Its sickening to the core i must admit i always used interlink and rated them. Thats the problem when a company gets a monopoly on something
  19. If i remeber rightly Porter and Richarson used to practice this and there results spoke for themselves
  20. I dont know a lot about them to be honest but i do carry the Fvw family although not like i used to numbers wise. There is some goos awnsers coming up at present which i thank everyone for, I will be doing some research into the lesser known families such as the wim moens
  21. i may very well do mate i am working at Doncaster show this coming weekend, so if the mrs will allow me to that is!
  22. I want to bring in some out and out sprinters for 2008, something for up to 200-250 miles. Obviously i cant list all the families but would justlike the forms honest opinion on which family to go for. The van reets i know about and soojtens but want to look at the lesser known families as well i am not restricting myself to just the families on the poll so any suggestions appreciated. Thanks
  23. i will post a picture of the traps i have having built when they are fitted, they are my own design but if anyone likes i will give the details for the joiner building them
  24. Sevral fanciers fly there birds to rabbit hutchs Keith Mott being one of the most famous
