what are the best stories youve heard for getting beat in a race hear is few to get started one guy told us years ago that his bird was there before the club winner the bird trapped he ran in the loft grabs the bird takes off the rubber goes to the clock an old wooden case benzing which was kept in the loft but the key was missing from the clock and it was deff in it before he searched the loft for 45 mins before he found it and could time in youll never guess where it was he said the old blue cock must have taken it out the clock and put it in his nest bowl and was sitting on it lol another guy said he was caught out and not ready because he was washing his wifes hair when the bird went in what the best you guys have heard

Struggling With ,,,,,, Time

you can also make extra drinkers out of the 5 liter plastic bottles you can buy spring water in just cut a small hole about 2inch high 2 inch wide just over half way up this helps keep it clean then put a brick at the front so the birds can stand on and get the water as the level drops down i use this at holiday time to so my daughter does not have to change it as offten or forgets even -

i use easybed to andy only clean floor twiced just be fore pairing and just before racing i put boards about 10 inch wide under the perches you just run along them with a shovel my boxes and perches get cleaned once a fortnight bye a local lad whom i pay and he changes the litter for me to when needed he used to have the birds himself and knows the score and a nice lad as mick says only downside is you tend to carry it on your shoes so i keep an old pair of carpet slippers for in the loft and its not as bad with me having pigeon lung scraping out is murder for me id love my loft to be spotless at all times but as long as its dry it does not make one bit of difference to the birds infact i think there better for it not getting disturbed every day -

did not pay 500 for him he was a cheap one 300 dell lol but payed 1300 pounds for two direct sons of debarcelona and they were 11 year olds and have plenty winners off them but for some reason there sons and daughters are better breeders than the old cocks one of them is 17 and not missed an egg the other missed an odd one gave him to billy 99 a wee while ago and filled them no bother payed 8oo pounds for the direct daughter of smarged 2 when paired to his own daughter got five years breeding off her and her and the old cocks blood is in almost every bird in the loft the house of aarden bought a full brother of one my debarcelona sons for 35oo at blackpool for one a bit younger so i got a bargain i think and mines breed winners would not part with these birds as no one has this blood any more that are prepared to sell 98 percent of the birds in my loft is at least a granchild of a 6 or 7 hundred mile national winner so im looking forward to getting better but as you know it does not always work out that way m8 -

just found 7 national tickets that i won in 2011 had not a bad year then to im afraid if there not in the first 12 or so in the section it does not mean a lot to me goes over my head a wee bit m8 as if your getting a prize for going if you know what i mean but every man to his own i know many would be happy with a 83 sect 407 th open just does not ring my bell maybe i just expect better or maybe its just auld age takes a wee bit more to get me excited i could never get my head round someone keeping 40 0r 50 birds timeing one in a national and being happy with there year what happend to the other 39 or 49 or am i just being to hard im out to win every race i go to wither its 60 miles or 600 we only send an odd yearling to the nationals the rest should be winning in club and fed imo -
