I was intending to build a kennel for the we fella, and have it stay outside, would this be ok? as long as itdidnt cause a problem noise wise i should be ok, i think.

Duplicating Races Fed/Snfc
alex wight replied to alex wight's topic in Pigeon Politics, Rules & Regulations
Thats right Gary, the only way to go is to join feds in the same area, to keep the birdage healthy for the distance, as when the numbers come down, it makes it even more difficult than a national. Another good opinion though, regards alex. -
Duplicating Races Fed/Snfc
alex wight replied to alex wight's topic in Pigeon Politics, Rules & Regulations
Austin you have your wires crossed ya awld goat,lol it wasnt me that mentioned £3.00. as i said i am looking into different options that dont see hikes in prices ect as i am well aware of the feds finances and capabilities. To keep the fed healthy we need to look at all avenues and do the best for our members. They tell me your minted anyway so you can pay for me as well, lol. On a serious not though, its nice to hear sensible discussions about a very important topic. Heres hoping (and i,m sure we will) that we achieve a happy balance for the future of our fed and national. Regards alex. Ps well done and a huge congratulations on achieving the dream, really chuffed for you, just dont put the prices up lol -
Duplicating Races Fed/Snfc
alex wight replied to alex wight's topic in Pigeon Politics, Rules & Regulations
Mixed opinions. Shouldn't we remember that without our fed's, then there wouldn't possibly be nationals. As the fed programme is ideal for training our birds. I feel there should be a choice when it comes to racing, and not forced. You would still have the choice to go to fed or national, and that's when you select your national birds to your fed ones. Its totally different racing when with the national, and it takes really good birds to be successful. So why should we punish our less experienced pigeons, by putting them into the harder of the races. Thats why we need a good independent fed programme, for good preperation when the step up to the next level, and compete with the creme de la creme. Why has there been a huge shift towards nationals? surely a win at fed level is worth winning after all thats our bread and butter. Or is it a case of when duplicated, there are more prizes and trophies ect. In my opinion, if you win a national you have done the best there is in our country, if you win a fed race, you have won the best in your fed. I aim to win the fed first, and if i feel i have pigeons good enough to tackle the best in the country, then thats my next target. Duplicating i feel doesnt best prepare our birds, and in a way petrifies them, being forced into something they are not prepared for. Again these are only my opinions, regards alex. -
Does duplicating races with the snfc work, in your opinion? As a member of Fife fed we duplicate, and in my opinion, its disastrous. We race out to Leicester on our own, then with the snfc. Since we have started doing this we as a fed has seen some horrendous loses.... is the duplicating the problem? or is just coincidence? I feel that we as a federation need to stand on our own 2 feet and do whatever is possible to achieve this. IF we were to get the support of All members at sales and the presentation night, we might be able to achieve it. However it is clearly apparent that finances are a problem, i wont even go there. I am personally doing some research into how we can have our own dedicated race programme along side the national one. I think its great to be waiting on pigeons from 2 different race points. Having 2 feds if Fife is madness just like the snfc and snrpc, and we should be looking at helping each other not linching each other, for the better of the support. These are only my opinions what are yours? Regards alex.

Absolutely brilliant Austin, a huge well done. Well done also, to you Brian, chuffed for the both of you. The only down side is, that the pigeon supply prices are now going up, now that they are being sold by a national winner.

Here here Brian.

I,ve just got back from visiting Blaz, after he offered a youngster to me, which i gratefully accepted. However what i didn't expect was to be offered a possible further 8, which to be honest blew me away. We sat for a while talking pigeons, had a guided tour of the lofts to see what's doing the damage for Gary, before chatting doo's again over a coffee. I could have sat there all day but the gaffer (wife) called telling me she needed the car, oops. So a big thank you goes out to Gary and thank you very much for the pigeons. Regards alex.
