seems simple enough , you would think most town councils could go with this idea. would be interested to know why the flock reduced from 160 to 60 ??

thankyou Owen ,thats cleared that one up. could you comment on this statement please .

happy birthday young Josh

this cock line ,hen line statement has me confused to be honest ?

cloudy and very breezey here , looks like rain on its way

morning all

some real crackers , a hard choice ,no 5 gets my vote.

all produced have been cocks ,i raised one for stock recently beleiving because of its colouring ( a light chequer) to be a hen , flown out not trained or raced. its in the hen section ............. driving anything that comes near it

in all honesty Bern ,its a shot in the dark .he has won club,fed and combine tickets back in Wales for me .in 18 months at stock up here bred 3 x 1st fed and Grandsire to a 1st fed ,with the same hen (with production like that i dont want to split them) it maybe the hen who is adding the quality ? but at least it will give me some answers ,hopefully good ones ?

i see theres no grass to be cut in front of the loft

not flown too well last 2 days ,mature birds interested in the nest bowls . late breds a fews spins around tho .

i normally breed 2 rounds off the stock ,each round going into a section of there own ,along with any off-spring from the racers .trying to reduce my work-load and just have 1 section of youngsters this year (all around the same age too) so first round layed will go under racers after 10 days ,then stock can lay again and raise there own .all young should be over within 3 to 4 weeks which will be fine by me.if i float the eggs as soon as layed ,would be a strain on stock hens i feel?

stock birds Tony

?? bump,bump ??

good offer , what about the boys who have just had there lofts burnt down ?? could be a good help ?

morning all

typical of hundreds of barns accross the country .i posted about seeing many large groups on barns when we travelled along the old A1 from Newcastle a few weeks back .you would be foolish to think the shootings werent a regular thing .as for any being National doo,s ,i doubt it ,more likely to sit on roof-tops than inside .

cloudy ,but mild and dry here

morning folk,s ,see if Admin can set a board up for "insomniacs are us"

very cloudy here , a hint of blue in the sky ,hope the rain stays off.

happy birthday Geo

cheers Bill ,visited a loft on Sunday who has up to 16 to go to this race ,all down on pot eggs ,lights on till 11 pm and trained a few times to 30 mile already

we are staying at the "BIG blue" again

been dry , very breezey ,but mild here today ? were in for a change tho
