  1. have to agree with Roland i have flown just cocks for years , but alas no more too many good hens waisted , the N.E.H.U montage for this years U.N.C winners only had 2 cocks and this is in my mind the hotbed for testing strains and sexes so far more hens are winning than cocks in my mind , as stated before ill race then hens first 3 races then ill get cocks out for 4th race and fly whats fit after.
  2. look fine to me great job
  3. 100% correct in my mind prevention is far better than and cure support the birds immune system and they'll repay you by been far more robust in constitution and less suseptable to disease
  4. I agree prevention is better than the cure but better to use natural products than drugs in my view immunity is effected by over treating and weaker birds will hold you back and cost you more
  5. well i have had mine tested today and i have the all clear why treat when not nessasary test for everything treat for nothing use the right products and you have no diseases just pure 100% immunity , ill get a phone call in 2 weeks then the candida test within the next 5 weeks but all clear and cost up all your medications i bet it comes to more £30
  6. Well the birds are fully through there moult and i've booked an apointment for the vets , i have collected dropping samples from all my birds mixed them up into a paste and these will be tested today , i also selected a pigeon to be throat swabbed selecting this bird was hard as they all look fine but this one dint look as good as the rest from a visual inspection .
  7. also add seaweed powder to the corn

  9. heres a few motivation tips http://forum.pigeonbasics.com/m-1225124899/s-12/#num12
  10. buy dave allens a widowhood year , pair them up allowing 8 weeks to rear and 3 weeks to train once reared split sexes remove hens and one yb and leave cock one , id start traing hens as they dont mind the cold as much and send hens to first 3 races then after first race start cocks training but entirely up to you

  21. i add live natural Yoghurt to water and i feed to the needs of the birds prior to hatching i add calcium to water to ensure good eggs and i also add grit to galley pots to ensure all hens are getting enough calcium
  22. marine ply is the best but if your replacing the roof you may consider putting some perspex on it as well to let the sun bring your birds into form , heat = form
  23. {MOVED-MESSAGE-PLACEHOLDER}
  24. i find juicing easier to feed veg and fruits , and birds will eat carrot pulp
