i dont disagree with you guys but this is not a new thing been happening for years some pigeons just cant handle a south east wind from any race point even your timers are puggled when they come landing on places they never did before ive won the fed section 8 times in east winds but with uttoxeter is as if the birds dont have time to sort them selves out in a south east and imo john its different down the east side because the east birds have to break farther down the road giving them time to get back on there line of flight imo east winds never a true race watch who wins your races in east winds offten its the the guys that win a race every 5 or 10 years then east wind bang out the blue and flying like a coo so and sos in north east is a different ball game takes a good pigeon but east or south east you could time a fantail top the fed and it goes down the next week all east and south easts should be banned i hate them lol but as is the norm in our sport theres always someone has a good race but like i said its jmo and we all have our likes and dislikes good luck to you all guys no matter what the wind

morning bill morning guys

bit overcast here but dry so far not to bad

thanks gogga and you to pal

yip horse beans bill chads old man was great flyer distance man to only fed tic beans with linseed and a little groats and had good national results with a small team of birds others win feeding almost 80 percent maze go figure many roads lead to rome pal do your own thing imo

thanks chad long way to go yet m8 but built a good team around me but as you know it can all fall apart very quick think yer right about the auld yin but worked for him why change it still think good doos will win on any good grain no matter what it is to many go ott on the feed if its one thing i learned off yer auld man its keep it simple and he was right imo

not be the first time chad nothing to beat pigeons for bringing down to earth with a bang lol

now now chad i remember an old pal that used to put his tic beans into a bin lid and pick out any bad ones and was a hard man to beat wonder what hed think of all the fancy mxtures thats around now eh

seen them do that with tic beans as if there feeling the weight of the bean if it dont feel right its tossed away maybe they taste it to who knows m8

no it was not that jimmy there was a bad batch of maples doing the rounds small and wrinkled the birds just would not eat them as if they knew something was wrong with them lots of the guys were saying the same doos like maples dont know if they could smell something on them or what the problem with them was but it was a problem i dont if they could taste they were not right bill my guess is smell is a big part of it but who knows

half as good as last year ill be happy bill not easy kidded m8 had to many hard lessons to stick my neck out ill take what comes lol

true dell not many m8

thanks guys like ive said you can only do your bit then its up to them

some of us also had this problem a few seasons ago me to so i told gibb of galston i did not want maples if there were gm grain and not had a problem with them since the pigeons just would not eat them whether it was because they were gm or had been sprayed with something i dont know but when i changed to non gm it solved the problem eastcoaster i now tend to think if they dont eat something when hungry they are telling us its not right jmo

its fine pete dont worry about m8 every ones happy these things happen

its a good race point if you get a west wind but every time its east its a f k up novo

aye thats how lanarkshire had doos reported all over ireland m8 i won the race and lost 7 good yearlings in it with 3 in ireland and over half our club was the same i dont talk s t m8 just facts where do you fly

everything went well id given them a wee run together a few weeks ago and they settled very quickly ive some great matings if i say so my self 11th open clermont to 35th open clermont my 8th section ypres to my good mealy hen 2 first sect fed two national diplomas and so on whether they breed there like is another story but they look good together if you know what i mean and thats something i like to see not just the pedigree and there performance but they look like a pair but even the best racers can be non producers its hit or miss but the better the pigeons the better your chances of getting good youngsters off them so heres hopeing meanwhile i still have there sires and dams so plenty brothers and sisters off them to carry on and add to my team so everything looking good for now hope all is going well for you guys good luck to you all this season

dont worry about asking questions m8 thats how you learn id buy my youngbirds from a good local flyer or two of the best you can afford or go to louella and buy them dont race them this year just train them so you have a team to breed from next year you can then race them and have youngbirds for next year all depends how much you can afford to spend good luck to you

a bit better here today overcast but trying to clear

morning guys

anyway george did you find out where to get widowhood fronts on a sunday maybe some of the clubs that sell feeding would have them m8 anyone local know

your right yellow

have i missed something

wellcome guys
