  1. Our lass helps me from time to time , no matter how poorly I've been I've always managed to feed and water them myself , my uncles got birds and my nephew is interested in them , but just me that's interested in my birds really , I could get my nephew involved but I like been my own boss
  2. Happy Birthday guys , have a great day :emoticon-0123-party: :emoticon-0123-party:
  3. why change feed ??? (1) Change of exercising regime (2) moult (3) less active birds (4) don't want fat birds (5) hens will lay better when not fat (6) birds will be healther on a diet that suits (7) birds have different requirements on cold days / warmer days (8) barley and wheat are cheaper (9) protein puts too much fat on before breeding when on lock up (10 ) hungry hens wont pair together there's just a few reasons I'm sure there's many more

  9. I like a bit of colour in my racers could be due to having been brought up with both racers and fancy birds , the fancy birds are ok but mostly to look at I get bored of them after a while unlike flying the flying breeds such as the rollers and tipplers but racing is more for me but can appreciate the fancy birds and the efforts in breeding birds to a set type , read some interesting stuff on colours although my knowledge is basic and mostly self learnt
  10. It's with deepest sympathy I have to inform members of the passing of George Rankin , he passed away last night , heard this just now , our thoughts are with Gareth and his family and family's friends may he rest in peace

  16. I fear there's not much hope of this as both sides think there right . Rules are rules , but at the detriment of the sport in Scotland , there's no true winner as everyone in Scotland is loosing out on a true national , but fanciers are very quick to split and form smaller concerns when true competition faces them , harder to change things from the outside than it is from within . I feel the big problem is that the problem is the shorter races is where all the money is earned rather than the distance races and the national suffers as they have no subsidy from the shorter races , then the fees get higher for birdage and many can't afford to send many , only way to make the distance races more profitable is to reduce the birdage cost and have better prize money for distance racing then there be more incentive to race in the SNFC events .Also the grouping of these races reduce entry's itself 2 to 3 week gaps between races would also increase birdage
