Poppy Loft

Can anyone that has bought the one from the BHM confirm it looks like the one on ebay?

Did not know that mate, its all new to me! I will ask at club, thanks for info.

Cant mate, club only uses unikon

Have bought one off ebay to try. Have a hill with a wood a couple of hundred yards from my garden and saw 3 of the bloody things circling this evening. Havnt got my loft up yet so going to try and scare em off before otherwise could be a nightmare!

Will do, at least ive got until july to save up for one! Its an expensive sport to start up from scratch thats for sure!

The one in BHW is 20 odd quid, I was wondering if its anything like the stuff on ebay which is cheaper? Sorry dont know how to link, but if you type in iridescent tape into ebay theres only one product that comes up.

Second hand Unikon ets wanted please. My mrs will have kittens if I have to fork out £500 on a new one!

My first season back for twenty years, would be grateful if anyone would explain the basics of the darkness system, thanks.

Thanks for the kind messages. I met the chairman of my club a couple of weeks ago and he tells me yb loses are very high these days, is that the same across the country? I can remember my dad only breeding a dozen or so per year. My intention is to go to louella to buy half a dozen or maybe 10 and buy some more here and there to have a team of about 20, am I being naive with these numbers, should I start with more? I am a driver for a living and one thing I have noticed is the amount of hawks about the countryside, they seem to be everywhere, which I would guess would be a significant factor with loses. Anyway my boy has spent this afternoon picking out names for his and I have been up and down the back garden admiring the base work for my loft and imagining that first bird coming bang on line! Good to dream hey?!

Thank you. Have been out of the sport for twenty years and now finally able to start up again and introduce it to my son. I put my loft base down yesterday and am taking delivery on 29th of feb. Hoping to race at least some of the yb program this season. It looks like I've got alot of catching up to do what with this darkness system thing and ets is all new too! Anyway my son and I are very excited and cant wait to get started!
