Defra has today decided to amend the current Foot and Mouth disease restrictions so that, subject to no further changes to the disease situation, movements to livestock markets in the Low Risk Area will be permitted from Thursday 4th October. This will be subject to stringent biosecurity measures, and the current control measures in the FMD Risk Area remain in place. In addition, following negative laboratory results the Foot and Mouth disease Temporary Control Zone in the Maidenhead area has now lifted. Laboratory tests also show that the strain of FMD found on the seventh infected premises is the same strain as that found on the other premises in Surrey.

Defra has also today received positive test results for Bluetongue for a fifth animal on a fourth premises near Burstall, Suffolk. This animal will be culled.

A 3km Temporary Control Zone has today been put around a premises near Maidenhead, Berkshire within the existing surveillance zone. This is a precautionary measure following a veterinary assessment of clinical signs. Laboratory tests are ongoing. It remains essential for animal keepers to practice the highest standards of biosecurity, remain vigilant for disease and report any suspicions immediately. Cattle owners should examine their livestock twice a day.

Defra has also today received positive test results for Bluetongue for a fourth animal on a third premises near Ipswich, Suffolk. This animal will be culled. At this stage, there is not sufficient evidence to confirm an active outbreak of Bluetongue as it cannot yet be demonstrated that the disease is circulating. Epidemiological investigations are on-going to establish whether bluetongue disease is circulating in the UK. Action will be in line with the UK Bluetongue Control Strategy, published in August, but will also take account of the current FMD restrictions. It remains essential for animal keepers to practice the highest standards of biosecurity, remain vigilant for disease and report any suspicions immediately. Livestock owners should examine their livestock twice a day.

Defra has confirmed that a third animal has tested positive for Bluetongue. This is on a premises near Lowestoft. In the light of this, it has been agreed that it would not be appropriate to allow farm to farm movements in the area surrounding the premises from 3.30pm today. This area is Norfolk and Suffolk. Essex is also considered to be at risk of Bluetongue, but as it is also in the Foot and Mouth Disease Risk Area, farm-to-farm movements would not be permitted in any case. At this stage, there is not sufficient evidence to confirm an active outbreak of Bluetongue by the internationally-recognised definition. It cannot yet be demonstrated that the disease is circulating or alternatively is the result of a single incursion of infected midges from abroad.

**Latest** Positive test results for Foot and Mouth disease (FMD) have now been confirmed at the site where it was decided that cattle should be slaughtered on suspicion earlier today. The site is within the existing Egham Protection Zone in Surrey and this becomes the seventh Infected Premises since 3rd August this year. Minor changes are being made to the Protection Zone (PZ) and Surveillance Zone (SZ) in the area. It remains essential for animal keepers to practice the highest standards of biosecurity, remain vigilant for disease and report any suspicions immediately. Livestock owners should examine their livestock twice a day.

Hi, there are many arguments for and against darkness personally i beleive darkness is a very good system to use to compete at the later young bird races with your birds in full tact darkness is a must from our own experience it does not affect out yearlings as we have had a few sucesses with our yearlings including racing pau and dax but i suppose many people hae tried it although it is very important to get it correct otherwise you could have problems

Thanks i have just taken some pictures of the birds i purchased which are on my website http://www.dclofts.co.uk/stock.htm

Hi, Thanks good to hear they are doing well for you, i had a pair to start with i loft the cock and only had the hen 4 years ago since other than that i havent raced them, my farther has taken a break from racing since 2006 i did the same in 2005 when i went to uni although i still kept some breeders which i sold earlier in year which were klak based i now have 4 pairs from des which i borught when i visited him a month or so back i am very pleased with them, i hopt to build a long distance family round these. i have started my job now and am in a regular shift pattern so i may consider racing these in the long distance classic & national races only

Thanks well all i can do is test them if no good on pure i will cross them with another long distance family who knows thanks again look forward to hearing anybody elses experiences with them andrew
