Whose attacking anybody? Nobody's being attacked just opinions being stated that when people get "YBS" there is normaly an under lying problem! It maybe through new stock being carriers of something etc which is a reason all new birds should be quaranteened. Pigeondesigner has informed us of something that seems to be becoming all to frequent and I for one would like to know the post mortum results on one of the culls rather than anything that effects young birds being banded as YBS.

But not only on the continent, as designer has said, his dad, Bob Fenech has had to kill 20 ybs, no doughbt through excess antibiotic use and foriegn imports!

not bothered by it, beleive there are underlying problems if you get it!

The ETS antenna must be within the loft or trapping system which means this complies. The bird doesn't have to be inside the loft but with these style traps it would be within the traping system.

they are all fairly easy to use, what takes the time is putting all your birds on the computer in the first place.

you should just put a notice next to it pointing out the truth about the RSPB and how they have caused an inbalance in nature causeing the demise of small birds!

looks good, well done

haha, birds prefer a darker nest box, why do you think they are always keen to nest under the boxes etc?

I was always told never to use white inside the loft as it was to bright but if you wanted to paint the inside use a pastel colour as it creates a calmer atmosphere for the birds. Always use oil based paint so it can be washed/wiped clean when needed. Phil

she's called Sophia and was born 9wks early on 5th jan 09.

my prezzi!

Don't know who she's going to be supporting!

Bet none of you can beat my prezzy, my wife just come home with our baby daughter, Sophia after being born 9 weeks early! A very happy day!!

Good luck to you Stevie, at least your trying! Plenty of work here but to far away fom you and I supose you don't do freebies? Phil

Worst thing about being a pigeon fancier is seeing the sport dieing, the backstabbing when your winning and cleaning out!

Welcome, tell us about yourself, whats made you start again etc

Have you researched the painting Racer?

Somebody got a bargain!

there are so many great things about being a pigeon fancier, racing, showing or just keeping for pleasure, it doesn't matter how bad a day you have had when you walk in your loft all your worries are forgotten, stress drains away and they are just pure pleasure!

congratulations, more sleepless nights!

that would be fine but the ones you sent were all 600+

if you are intending breeding from them then it may also be worth thinking about taking a single youngster from each pair and training during warm weather to bond the birds and also test the hens then swithching to widowhood for the latter races?

all yours were about 600kb, ok singley but to much in multiples. I've just reduced all above to just over 100kb. You need to reduce them further so the total you wish to post at any one time total less than 1000kb, 1mb Phil

is this what you wanted?

i hope to get all the stockbirds paired tomorrow.
