give them a ring and have ring numbers i doubt they keep records out of the none pedigree birds , but worth a try if they have bred you something you maybe able to buy the parents

same gamble anywhere you go but im sure you would get better birds from a flying loft as they have been bred from current winners and not generations of untested birds

yes i have bought many birds from Louella but if i could get them from a flying loft id be much happier , most of fliers that had Delbars that i liked are no longer here , Jack Roberts , Pete Bolton .................... so sometimes i buy from Louella to get the ones i want , i suppose i could go from Delbars to Belengie Delbar to the modern day Delbar Jos Thornes or try the Raevens

better to buy from flying lofts if you can , save your B.H.W during racing and then read the B.H.W during closed season and see what lofts are performing at the distances you want to improve on , then you'l get good birds but the advice on how to fly the birds you wont get from Louella but you will from most flyers

most microbacteria are spectrum specific thats why its better to go and seek advice from a vet as if treating blindly with wrong antibiotic your can make things worse as the bacteria will accelerate as its not been actively fought

welcome nightshade enjoy the site

im trying to get there normaly black minerals will stabilise there guts or crushed charcoal on corn with yoghurt if poisioned , but if the corn is the source wont help putting anything on it

id see a vet 100 % but if there been poisoned via there corn then best to check there corn , sometimes when safflower and sunflower seeds arent stored right they go mouldy internaly and this can kill your birds so storing corn in a dry place free from damp is a must, the seeds look visabily ok but are mouldy internaly

nice avitar

is there saflower in your corn mix ? and how / where are you storing it ?

so stock birds are effected as well ? is there any safflower in your corn and how / where do you store it ?

have they been fielding i.e been in a field ?

a few questions 1 what corn are you feeding ? 2 what age birds are affected ? 3 are your birds been let out ?

well done Duncan

well it does grown on trees Damian lol , plenty of timberyards Damian i use MKM GOOGLE TIMBERYARDS/ builders merchants or saw mills depends what your looking for

nature takes care of the moult , but i feed plenty of protein and linseed , pigeon tea and garlic , and two warm baths a week

i'd recomend Blakes everytime on price and on Quality and there comunication skills are great and no matter what question you want to ask them they'll go out of there way to give you it or get it.

splitting hens from cocks its all down to preference i usualy split ybs after last race there still together as the cocks section is not ready yet , widowhood cocks are usualy allowed to rear a yb at end of season then split to moult the yb is there reward for winning , after the latebreds are reared i split the stock as well as the racers, same again the stock are still together until i get the widowhood boxes finished , i should get them all done by the week end then ill split the ybs
