shame think everyclub should be breeding young stock birds unrung and take them to where they train from before the racing starts lots talk about it but do nothing it will help solve our problem if we fill the sky with them lets all breed a pair or two for this good cause or are wee just gonae keep greetin about it and do nothing spread the word up and down the country what do you think guys caution

you tell them billy

dont know the people but very well done

i did not know about this coment i was talking about when i first heard it a few years ago and as long as the public thinks that way we will neaver win them over

the flying rat coment was made about 4 or 5 years ago on tv by guys who were making money from dist councils catching strays to help there cause that was the first time i ever herd it when i went to work next day everyone was talking about the program

youll do for me

i think all pigeon feed is a load of bull doo men are falling in to the fashion pitt of if its got a name it must be better like nike or aadidas trainers can cost 200 quid you can get a pair in liddles for 12 quid that are every bit as good the ones with a name wont make you run any faster same with the feeding if you dont have good pigeons does not matter what you feed them your being conned bye big name feed merchants up to 350 miles a good pigeon will win on any good clean corn ive good wins feeding 50 per barley another year had greatresults with 50 per wheat and again with 50 percent chicken pellets the other 50 made up of the cheepest mix ican find we are all guilty of it if it cost more it must be better wrong good pigeons well trained clean dry corn add to it for the distance if you feel the need doo men are far to gulable to the sales pitch of feed merchants at the end of the day its still only corn and as for the so called champions that say they feed this or that for a back hander if hovis give me a wee backhander ill say i fed them bread all year

the flying rat tag killed it for the doo men dan

i was still laughing for weeks after mick

allan i worked with a guy from the gallowgate years ago he told me alarge rat was coming into his house through a hole in the wall it would not eat anything with poinson on it or go near a trap he said be happy if he could just stop it getting in the house i told him to brake a bottle and shove broken glas up its hole naw a couldnt do that he said who wid hold its legs open and thats no a joke lol

a top man george enough said

no way unless its an east wind

your right john and not just the yb nat its the same in the ob nat as well apart from an odd one or two in a west wind east sect birds are normally one hour in front of the west sect winner wee must be keeping monkeys though here only fair race in snfc program is ypres

i normally spot any problems like that before basketing chad but could have missed an odd one swings and roundabouts

ps you can allso work this idea with your sputnics by making a platform to bring your basket up level with the sputnic

they will aw be gone to the mecca when they come back dan lol

this is the way i do it today put basket against the hole flap inside put tipbit in basket allso hang drinkers on with seed in to get them used to it 2 or 3 times then start chasing them into it then shut flap after 2 or 3 times they know what to do i basket 40 yb in less than a minute put basket on even if not going training with drinkers on so they learn to eat and drink in basket

your right cawdy think we have to sort this our self and there is only one way

we are wasting our time and money no one is interested in what happens to pigeon our only chance is highlighting whats happening to our small birds bye making the public aware of why they they are not getting half as many small birds at there bird tables because rspb and other s have trully upset the balance of nature i have taken my bird feeder down the hawks were using it as a takeaway

hard lines but good effort john gave them a fright

my lofts got plastic on the front and heat from the bulb takes the chill out the air i breed in december every year mick it works

derrek ive got the wee ioniser that hangs round the neck find its a great help when i mind to wear it only 25 quid

del somebody phoned the police says they could see a man throtaling a pup lol

i love it all learn something new every day even a novice can have a good idea so say little and listen a lot and ive kept them 50 year
