welcome aboard ronie to the best pigeon site in the world everyone is very helpful hear no wise cracks fellows

rich are they old birds or youngsters because young cocks have alot more sheen on than the hens its a good way of telling what the sexses are in young birds

well done susan great result

get both but this week rp has not come into the shop,ive only been getting rp for three weeks is this a regular occurance. billy

well done peter fantastic as the injuries the bird has had,if it can breed birds like itself you would have a great team together. good luck billy

forgot to say chris the two van der rhees we got off you both going strong and good trappers to hope they come first next week not much chance of them flying arround.cheers billy

touch wood never lossed any young birds training,we are training 63 young birds 33 more than we have ever had,but when they go to the first race next week it could be a different kettle of fish we will send half of them as we do every year,so hoping for the best good luck to all you fanciers out there lets hope theres no bad news next week. billy

just like to say mark that pigeon got home okay as he gave brian a wring to thank him thanks alot mark fellow was over the moon.another one dropped in this morning whilst training it was from crook [billy row] ive notified the secretary.thanks once again mark. billy

sorry to hear you are giving the birds up tammy may you have happiness in everything you do in the future good luck my friend. billy

well done mate 500 mile races are an endurance test . billy

yes magpies are classed as vermin as they kill all youngsters in the nest such as black birds thrushes,anything that has a nest in bushes or open land,a friend of mine caught 37 2 years ago it doesnt matter how many you catch theres allways onother to take there places ,they also feed on dead rabbits ect that lies dead on the roads after been run over by cars ect if youve a chance of getting rid of them you do so.cheers billy

well done lads its hard enough to get a fed winner never mind first 17 may the rest of the season be the same. billy

well done tony it must have been a great thrill for you over the moon for you billy ;D ;D ;D

how many good birds are there in each individual loft not a lot i can assure you,there are a certain ammount of birds that keep the home fires burning

well said mark agree with everything you said the price of petrol is the killer for training this year,20mile per gallon for my car and the same for my mate both have old volvos,but will have to cut something out to get them down the road there was always a chap used to come with a box trailer for 1.50 a basket be there was greedy sods used to fill a basket between two or three of them the lad got wise and stopped coming ,theres always one or two who will always spoil it fo others.

paulo i think the clermont race west durham amal was won by stobbs up at consett the same bird topped the fed the week before,think it was a van reet

welcome roberto you have come to the best site in the world enjoy it billy 8) 8) ;D ;D ;D

i would just like to add about young bird training,how many fanciers take there birds training when it is overcast ours never go unless there is broken cloud there has to be sunrays getting through somewhere before our birds go training,i think there are a lot of fanciers start to panic when it gets near to the first race and they have to train at all costs.i would sooner miss the first race than train in poor conditions,i know birds will come through rain no bother as long as they get a good start and there not far from home but they cant come long distances through bad weather there is always one or two will get through but i always say better be safe as sorry,had first toss this morning only from 6 miles just to get them used coming out of the baskets.the trouble in scotland there is that much open land they can get miles out of the road,in my area in county durham all the birds come north if they get past they are only a few miles past our lofts unless they hit birds training going south which doesnt happen very often.this is only my opinion and not in anyway meant to affend anyone. billy

how can these convoyers expect birds to come through 400 miles at least in terrible conditions p*ss--g down with rain where do they get there line of flight from i know we get some bad races in the up north combine but not half as many as you guys up there my heart bleads for you and the pigeons.you put all the effort in getting the pigeons in the right conditions for these long races and a click of the fingers all gone,an absolute disgrace some one has to be sacked or there will be no more pigeons left in scotland to fly,what can i say to all you lads to make it any better-------------impossible all i can say is good look lads billy

well it must be like that all the way down to co durham also scarbrough the same so its about 90 miles to scarbrough from hear all the best jimmy and to all the rest of the lads

god help the scotch birds from tours its been p*ss--g down in county durham for the last 2 and a half hours old yellow told me its been the same down in sunny scarbrough since this morning good luck to all my friends up there billy

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ARCHIE TO GET A WINNER ON YOUR BIRTHDAY WEEKEND WOULD BE NICE ALL THE BEST DONT TALK TO THE PIGEONS WHEN YOUR DRUNK. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D BILLY
