  1. ok it you want to be technical a dilute ash gene
  2. never seen dark been described as a true colour the nearest you get is black
  3. and the cock is a son out of a yellow so the yellow gene is recessive in there ofspring , and could easily be paired to produce yellows , and more chance if both birds carrying the yellow gene

  19. better to divide one nation into 4 section north and south west section and north and south east section then you would have 4 secton winners and obviously the national winner then theres at least the chance of topping your section if the winds not favourable

    sneaky mix

    make your own but i only give it whilst racing and helps them get into condition and trap better heres my mix equal amounts of each seed : hempseed , linseed , canary seed , black rapeseed and Dari ( red is better than white ) i feed half a teaspoon on trapping but only when racing
  21. one national , two nationals , one organisation , two organisation , it doesnt make any sense to have two of anything as having two nationals undervalues peformances but if thats what it takes for a few members to win against half ( i use half as figure of speach ) of the nation then i cant see it becoming one united you stand divided you fall , the R.P.R.A is a headless chicken its running at the moment but some of the nerves that send the messages will lose there signals then alas the chicken will be no more
