Dooheed 5

Was at liberation. There were no NRCC birds visable in sky when Ayrshire birds were libbed but just after they were libbed a batch of about 100 nrcc birds appeared high up ! these did not put off the Ayrshire birds and they cleared out of sight in no time

hello again Arek ! this is my bird you have and it is one of the many birds missing from the disaster of a race that was consett at the weekend !! if it is possible could you give it to your fed president jim cowie as he is coming up to Peterhead on sunday !! thanks

New members are always welcome !! just give our secretary George taylor a ring on 01779 479167 and as for getting birds to start up again guys in the club will breed you young ens for free no probs

I had PLF shortly after starting back in the doo's 4 years ago! had all the symptoms ie - flu like feeling at night when been in loft all day, loss of weight, very bad coughing and out of breath all the time !! had blood test taken at blackpool show which confirmed I had a high allergic reaction to pigeon protein (bloom) so I arranged to see a specialised docter in Aberdeen who performed more tests/scans (I thought he was defo going to tell me to get rid of the birds) and the out come was he was happy that I had contacted him early and the damage to my lungs was minimal and as long as I found a mask (also coat/hat) that I could wear in the loft at all times that works there was no reason to get rid of the birds !! so that's exactly what I did and I have had no problems since then whatsoever !! PS.He also stressed not to use the white paper masks as they were no use for pigeon bloom !!

Defo give ecco lofts a look !! well built loft at reasonable price ! nice lads and very helpful ! give them a bell

Clocked my first doo fae Alencon Gold cup race at 631 mls last year at my first attempt to be 8th north section to say I was chuffed was a understatement and even saw him drop !! words canna explain seeing a doo comin fae at distance !! hope its nae my last !! lol

Ask when it was purchased because be aware it might need the batteries changed in either the base station or pocket clock. just had mine changed and have heard quite a few other fanciers with professional systems needing new batteries.my system was roughly 6-7 years old and it cost me £96 to get both batteries changed by unikon !! get some one who has a ets system to look at it first mate before you hand over any money

this bird was handed to me by member of the public this evening said he found it in his back garden.It has been hawked with the classic injuries of half of one wing feathers missing and cuts/scrapes to chest and underside.

Got mine through this mornin ! my first one fae the channel at over 600 mile (631) well pleased jist hope its nae the last een !!
