any statitcs i can find all say that they do kill falcons but have no adverse effects on falcon numbers in a area they will actually kill more pigeons and doves than other birds of prey
-
the eagle owl will kill falcons but its really not as common as we would like a few 100 pair even would make very little impact training single is not the way to go any preadtor likes to single out a bird on land sea or the air if u take a young male or young female who are training to hunt they will have a go at everything that passes though you will often see skilled preadtors split the bunch then chase there prey or one splits the prey then the partner will be in postion to chase

Best player won the amount of 140s was unreal in the final is he the 3rd player ever to hold both titles I think mvg and of course Phil done it before
-
He buys what he thinks are the best no matter the price he races well also so he's not just a collector of birds he also bought Leo hermans famous olympaid pigeon a son of herbots 155 which is a fantastic bird he's bred lots of winners for others but lots for himself his soonjens mostly come from willy everart his koopmans from koopman he goes straight to the orgins of the strain and buys as colse to the champions as possible
-
koen has many breeds and pays top bucks too everything from soonjens to koopmans de rauw sablon the list goes on he is not afriad to spend the money he has been raceing very well this year again

Mayweather has to fight once more it will be in September most likely lets be fair mayweather looked like he was schooling pacman apart from a few burts of punches the mayweather was different class It won't be khan as he has lost too much and not in the same league My bet is on Danny Garcia

its like this for me i wouldnt like to be buying birds from someone that races over 400 mile for years and expect these to win spint races 120 mile or so in a sprint hotbed and the same vice versa of course there will be expections to the rules and im sure people could name many
-
Thomas without seeing them no one can really say if its pmv more than likely not u really need to get someone to have a look at them its nearly impossible to say what these birds may have from a few posts on a forum when where your old birds vaccinated are there signs of canker id nearly bet there is it may be a case that your old birds may be next to get sick

cocks will go a little mad sometimes do unusual things when you take away there hens ive often even seen them sulk you maybe need to lighten there feed with barley you dont want to be showing the hens just to get them to trap as if your going to use the hens as motivation as what will happen they will stop flying when they realise that the hens will be in the boxes after they come in from a fly they will just bomb about for 10 mins then spend the next 30 mins trying to get bk into the hens try having there feed ready where ever u feed them if its on the ground or in there boxes it takes a little while to get them right if your feeding twice a day feed a little less in the morning so there that little more hungry when you leave them out
-
would love too see it walter ill try look it up was out in a small wood recently when u actually stop and listen u hear nothing was sad really years ago it was a ball of noise of all the different small birds
-
you will have to use your imagination a little here lol well there only one winner that for sure but you take for e,g a race from lets say 250 mile and and there 2500 birds in the race there 5 clubs are in a large radius so it works out at 500 birds per club now lets say there 100 places on the result sheet there a strong west wind a lot of birds will fill the sheets from 2 clubs or even one now if you can get someone clocking well up when no one or very little is clocking around him well he must be doing something right against the odds thats a cracking performance i myself am not on the golden mile as i call it so ill try to look for someone whos in a similar position to myself
-
im more concerned with where the person is flying is he or she living on the golden mile whats there competition like also i try too find out as much as possible about the birds living conditions are they kept in a palace how much time is being put into the birds if there living in a palace can i in my back garden loft get another turn out of the key or is the key fully turned birds flying well into the wrong area you dont need to be 1st fed or national to have the best performance in the race jmo
-
dal2 not in all cases i often buy in a stock bird that has not seen a basket but his parents have and would have won and it would be full of winning genes i suppose in a way its putting as much winning genes into the bird that goes into the basket as possible
-
playing the numbers game i bet you breed more and more each year better having less stock and breeding more from them then only breeding a few from many hard selection is the key they need to give you a reason as to why they should not go if i find if i have to think about it for long there not worth it in most cases 8 or 9 pair and taking a few off your best racers should give you a team of about 60 birds no problem at all
-
hopefully the best team ireland win the title
