Best mix your own if you are just flying them,wheat,barley,milo,also much cheaper than store bought feed. Then about once a forthnight get some protein into them for one day feed.Depurative is sufficient if you wish to feed them this.

;D ;D ;D ;D Nine out of ten for this one Roland. ;D ;D ;D ;D

Wish the best to all birds and flyers,hope its a good one.

Just to muddy the water a little bit or clarify it , as these Blue Diamonds are manafactured in Cork just down the road from here,he enquired if it was possibile to buy in bulk,as some of his friends were having difficulties,just like when a Jack Russel terrier chases motor cars,whats he gonna do if he catches one, so Gangster being the big hearted guy that he is,has again offered to have these guys stand up for themselves,and helping the economy by getting the workforce back on three shifts,ta tu go ana bhait a Gangster Feair. P.S Mick they will be packed in Tea Chests,gotta go now,need a long cold shower.

Best of Luck Tariq ,hope you get a real good one.

Well done DOVEScot,very good and factual peice of insight,and good advicegiven,now its down to ALL fanciers and indeed all BIRD lovers

Go forth and multiply,ya beauty P.S watch out for those R.S.P.B (Bird Lovers)

Dont disagee with your sentiments Shadow,but if you dont even try,well last one out ,turn off the light,because as it is,we are nose diving into oblivion,sooner rather than later.

Why not draw up a list of good practices,and bad, and offer alternatives Q/ The format for reporting strays,outdated,unworkable,to the detriment of the pigeon. A/ Any pigeon to have a chance to be reported to carry a Tel No/Name and address ring

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D I thought you were giving up posting for a while.! Dont,you have a wicked sense of humour

Thy get better and better,well done Roland. ;D ;D ;D ;D

; ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D. L.O.L. Celtic ;D ;D ;D Do agree that Mick is very genuine,and one you can depend on.

The best or "worst" is yet to come,namely this years youngsters learning to hunt,with guidance and tuition from the parents,just coinciding nicely with our naive youngsters being raced/trained,as if we/them didnt have enough problems,and the cycle will begin again in earnest next season,with even more Perigrines,and probably more artificial nesting sites,thanks to our pigeons.Oh Apathy have I ever offended thee, its unlikely if you are a pigeon fancier.

Hope you get one Roland.

The one my Mother had in the corner shop,she reared 10 of us with it.

Wish you the best Roland,found most of your posts, refreshing,honest,and practical, no doubt we will have them again sometime.Good Luck.

As for watching them,if you did miss them,dont worry you will have many oppertunities in the future to see them,especially if you are a pigeon fanier. Bad day for Pigeon Fanciers.

Wish the birds and fanciers all the best and hope weather is fair for them.

Been reading this thread since it started,and my own opinion,is its very easy to understand the anger of most of these fanciers posting,they know quite well things are wrong ,big time,but with the hierarchy apparently for what it appears to be possibily a counter threat of law,the relevent people do nothing ,hoping it will go away,it wont,there are two proper channels in place,and if their Clubs,Feds,Combines,Nationals dont act,they will have to form a body themselves and act, cheating cannot be allowed to flourish,or prosper it makes a mockery of most fanciers beliefs,but knowing someone is guilty,and facts to back this up in what would eventually be a court of law,are alike as chalk and cheese,but personally I would rather be wrong in a court of law,than back down on what is really the truth,otherwise the very essence of honesty,competiveness,sport,decency,and so much more is void in these instances, the other course being that they will walk away having nothing more to do with this man,or those who appear to condone such actions by their silence, again this is my opinion as a pigeon fancier,and a Homo Sapien.

I would do what DOVEScot says if at all posible,but the dimensions mentioned are easily adequate for 20 rollers.

Good day for Pigeon Fanciers.
