  1. thanks george think ive cleared it or blocked every one lol
  2. get some big cages made so they can get from the landing board on to the roof so they have no fear of the loft pair them up and get the cocks out when there driving hard and the hens when there sitting a few days they will break no bother m8 might have to carry them a couple times then get the old loft down once they see theres nothing there should be ok
  3. george you have plenty time yet m8 to get your old birds up and broken id be getting the f k out of there pal sounds like a feud going on down there get out while you can well done cambuslang club
  4. aye and they were all double yolkers jimmy lol not heard that one m8 cracker
  5. true george work has to come first pal your doos just have to work round the time you have m8
  6. thats the stuff tom play it down m8 lol
  7. m8 been doing it for 20 years and kept them up to 3 months myself one turn a day is fine but the longer there kept the hatchability drops 100 percent will hatch up to 6 weeks 98 percent 6 to 8 weeks and so on but you can be lucky and they all hatch just remember to give them a wee wipe with a damp cloth weekly to stop them drying out and kept at room temp there fine no fridge as it chills them
  8. me ethere billy but il not knock it till i try it m8 a few guys saying its good stuff you can put it in the deep litter and nest boxes and bowls so il see how it goes try anthing onced m8 off to work now speak to you later
  9. forgot to add my birds are all distance blood go figure
  10. aye sometimes billy lol but in saying that mr burgess does ok at the pooling with widowhood cocks id just pool them all m8 if there racing that is
  11. well done on your wins at lanark tom dont think they will be asking you back m8 lol
  12. its called multi mite de powder billy greenlands says its good stuff got it this morning you put it on the feed and it worms them to keeps flys away to cause its in the birds dropings im going to try it in the bath water to when the ice melts lol il let you know how it goes guys worth a try its natural and cheap
  13. still a novice at this showing game wullie lol
  14. true john same with the racing m8 its easy to be a winner imo without the rest of the guys who try there best every week we would have nothing your hen looked a cracker john and good picking to m8 well done to you
  15. to many hens in the sections just now wullie cant keep them clean some just droped there last flight to so just took the cleanest ones which were not good enough m8 took my spin hen up but shes the dam of my loft bred 11 firsts 5 fed section winners and 6 birds to score in the snfc did not get a second look but to fair my prisoner stock handle soft imo and at the end of the day its just what the judge fancies but no complaints beat by some cracking pigeons pal you have to put a wee bit work into prepairing them imo which i dont do if im honest so you only get out what you put in wullie hows your health now m8 hope your keeping better
  16. i have heating in the lofts now so no problem in the stock lofts but not in the racing loft and i think lindsays idea is the best empty them at night and fill in the morning simples
  17. i fly natural and win from the first race to the last and prefer it for two main reasons one i can watch and read when my birds are ready and two i dont want all my birds in the same condition at the same time as only one bird can win the race
  18. well done john and all the guys that got tickets heard jim cullen say it was a very good class
  19. true davie but was nearly caught out tonight myself with a stock hen i was taking to a show i dipped her 5 days ago and still had some and that was clorecarb but only had a third of a pkt left maybe not strong enough ive got new stuff coming tomorrow let yous know if it works any better
  20. dont know about red mite but anyone judging at shows this year will tell you far to many birds covered in quill mite so guys are not checking there birds or what there using is not working imo
  21. a lion doberman cross lol alan did you not try the dog and cat home bothwell road m8
  22. wonder if it works m8 maybe the guys would come on and tell us anything that keeps them off your birds till they get on there way is worth looking at imo
  23. likewise they can also tell you when not to lib if they sudenly freeze and are very quiet they have seen something you cant so give them another 5 mins untill start bussling about the basket again then lib watch your birds and they will teach you imo
  24. the only guide you have with any birds you bring in is the race basket m8 theres no garntees even with a champion pigeon very few breed there like its harder to get good breeders than good racers imo
