I have just had a bird reported by a non fancier 6 miles north of aberdeen If someone could assist me with this I would be very gratefull

The more the the better as far as am concerned, Ayrshire did liberate with Ballochmyle and Lanarksire this morning ,Ballochmyle Federation have been liberating with Lanarkshire for the past 2weeks and the racing has been very good. As far as line of flight goes , what good does racing your youngsters out to berwick do them , You should have a wee look at a map, line of flight as you call it from the south into central ayrshire runs right through ballochmlye fed as all the clubs are in the Ayrshire. A bad race , lets blame somebody..!!

Hi Mate Where about,s are you and how many birds are you needing to move on. Cheers Kenny

Why are you needing to get rid of them .

I put them on the dark the day they are shifted and take them of the dark on the 21st of june .

There where only two races this year when one transporter was uesd alencon & ypres this suited the birdage and welfare of the birds . so could,nt see a problem with two libs at the yb nat. Most fanciers in the real west of scotland no were hitting or head of a brick wall sending to the y b nat.

I cant understand the attraction to geraldy transporters , I have never heard anyone say there racing has improved since getting one. Depending on cost of trailer your fed would be looking at roughly 25K each

i gave your sec a rough price during the season , but he told me the members were pushing for a geraldy.

well i no how much it takes to kit out a 40ft trailer , just depends if its a conventional or geraldy .

how much money do you need to buy a transporter :-/

oh come on your havin a laugh . He,s no even the the best in the ayrshire north road . ;D ;D

Thats why paying up front is the way to go . Would one new transporter be enough to carry all the birds ,
