  1. contact grahamgiddings@aol.com ask for breeders
  2. yup have a few that grow long toe nails need to be kept on top of that would cause feet to rock and full weight on would be uncomfortable imo , if legs were swollen or bird not using them I'd be more worried
  3. use a resizer such as photoshrink or alternatively use photobucket
  4. which leg is it on has it got anything stuck in the inside of ring ???
  5. leave them to nature a sure way to chill the eggs if you keep disturbing the nest , sometimes beak can get caught on sharp egg shell should be fine but leave them be till 6 days when you can check to ring
  6. the only benift of flying natural is , your birds will go through the cycle of nests at different states each bird will like different stages which motivates them however the down side is they'll moult and not hold a full wing like the roundabouts / widowhood birds , so better pairing later on
  7. Happy Birthdays guys , hope you both have a great day :emoticon-0123-party:
  8. Congratulations hope your treating her to a nice meal :emoticon-0123-party:
  9. the number is not complete it should have lettering as well , so until you give full details of the ring , we cant help
  10. Congratulations to all the family , great news for you all :emoticon-0167-beer:
  11. Happy new year Duncan , Carol and family :emoticon-0123-party: , cyas at Blackers
  12. Happy New Year :emoticon-0123-party:
  13. Happy New year to all of Pigeon Basics members , may 2011 bring good health and happiness to all :emoticon-0123-party:
  14. I think recommended times 18 days , as long as fertilized and not started to incubate you'l have no problem The sooner put under foster parents the better as less risk of eggs getting damaged
  15. black treacle ( mollasses ) seems to work for me natural but probably too cheap , should stick a pigeon on and coin it in :emoticon-0164-cash: :emoticon-0164-cash: :emoticon-0164-cash: as for hurting yes if not treated and clear then you have worms with resistance to the drug your using
  16. as long in a cool room up to two weeks if too warm they'll dry out , and turn them daily
  17. how about testing to see if need treating in first place
  18. You can get away with 2 to 3 days older but any older they may come off them so no don't have to be same time , best to pair the stock first store eggs so not incubated and float them when fosters lay second egg
  19. normaly a couple of days 6 is a bit long the adopting pair may abandon them or if got a broody hen you could be in luck
  20. I know the Walkingshaws were Bakers x Kirkpatrick , I've tried speaking to a few Irish lads about them but with little joy there were a few Slaine /Sligo way a few years back , those that have them don't like parting with them
  21. he's usually at Blackpool a sleep on chairs lol
  22. with a surname like that i'd go to your main library and look in york directory or alternatively look in ring list for his club
  23. it's only a disinfectant , as been said very much doubt it will discourage vermin
  24. have you got enough ????? :emoticon-0127-lipssealed:
  25. some very nice birds there
