  1. well feenie could win from 60 to 600 miles pat he was also a barley feeder and was a great influance on me when i could get a few bannana rums into him and pick his brains lol like many good flyers he did not say much
  2. ps not saying not to try them but even as a cross might work thats the thing with pigeons you dont know till you try a lot of the time
  3. i dont know phil dont know the man or where he flew his birds but 600 mile is 600 mile but like i said some areas easier than others imo like many of the dutch and belge birds cant do it here cause its different racing terrain here 700 miles into holland is not 700 miles into scotland think birds that are already winning into your area are better suited to the job if you can get them that is

  6. in fact john feenie told me how to make a cake for the birds with 1lb groats 1lb hemp 1lb linseed mix in a bowl with 1 tbl spoon of wheat germ oil 1 tbl spoon of cod liver oil then bake in the oven for a half hour let it cool then crush with your hand the pigeons loved it but did not make them any faster lol
