  1. i think your father would of seen through the rubbish on the market and may of altered slightly but most of the products your father used are still been used to great effect , a great fancier once told me nothing out of a bottle other than a drug will make your birds fly any faster , just make sure your birds are healthier and fitter than your compeditors
  2. i cant find any English articles hows your flemish ? ;D ;D ;D ;D

    im sure the Wombles of Wimbledon Common were based on pigeon blokes ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
  4. if i was after this family i would also consider Kellens and Maurice Matheuews , i tried to get some off Ken Briggs of Smethwick many years ago unsucessfully i may add
  5. i believe from what i was told by the guy i got 2 fed winners from that they are kellens based and Van den Boshe ( EXCUSE SPELLING ) , THEY CAN WIN UP TO 500 + miles see Dicky Dark his cock was 4th U.N.C Bourge , another is Marsay and Taylor of Great Ayton they topped the U.N.C from Bourge with a blue hen , George Dawes down in the black country had very good wildermesch
  6. its amazing that we can use gps navigational aids to go from a to b anywhere in uk and get an accurate map and directions , google earth can even give you photos of your back garden all be it a few years old , but yet R.P.R.A say that gps isnt accurate who are they trying too fool ?
  7. guess it left him with a bad impression tread mainly ;D ;D ;D ;D
  8. Paulo was there last week
  9. will have ask bloke was was it a goodyear ;D ;D ;D ;D
  10. that would be illegal ( R.P.R.A rules ) as outside the sputnik so ineffect not within the confines of the loft or trapping system
  11. after 5 year old most studs would be getting rid as the strain of breeding has took its toll on them by then and they have lost there vitality
  12. just because he was letting some of his stock go doesnt mean there were inferior , the fact could be he has enough good birds from them he can let them go , and bought some others perhaps different lines from the other sale , just because you already have good birds doesnt mean you stop looking for better , its when you stop looking you stop getting good birds , besides the jury will be out it the birds he bought in are better than the ones he already had
  13. yup see the sliders well done
  14. the use of the roof lights are great looks realy good nice 'dusty line' grizzle there
  15. i reconise a few of them
  16. well all deep litter taken out and a nice coating bianco added looks and smells lovely will check tomorrow if birds have rejected floor as a potential nesting site if not ill make it more uninviting for them
  17. dont get me wrong i like my deep litter as soon as widowhood have reared and hens removed its going back in , there happy with it in and contented , a happy loft is one thats winning deep litter or not

  19. yup dont use it whilst breeding a mistake i wont be making twice ;D ;D ;D ;D
  20. well if it wasent for bairn been alergic to dogs they wouldnt be any luckly enough most of them are pretty old and well fed and dont seem to bother with the birds
  21. im determined to rule the roost i wont fly natural too much work and i can get better results flying widowhood as for open hole 7 cats at 6 flats next door and i like to give the birds a set routeen , i believe the birds rest better on widowhood and can utilise there engery racing and flying rather than feeding ybs and cocks chasing hens
  22. if natural be fine , i believe the closeness the deep litter gives them as a community as ybs has carried over to the race loft , but this is not what i want
  23. no worries i can fit in a suitcase if going over ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
  24. the way i see it is this ok i dont have rodent problems , but if left ill have 2 sets of ybs at different ages on same nest thats a recipe for disaster , also i cant give the ybs any parentage apart from my own strain thirdly i fly widowhood and there rearing to have a bond with there boxes not the loft floor so im taking it out , they still have enough time to go down before my cut off date
  25. yes but its not very good http://www.natural-granen.com/#undefined/Breeding_Station
