    The Roger Trophy for best Yb average in the West section was won by Martin Ftzpatrick.

    The R, Telfer & Son trophy for the best Yb average in the East section was won by W. Smart & Son

     

    AND!! The Special trophy for the best COMBINED AVERAGE in the EAST Section was won by your good self Tam

     

    Ps. I can only put up the info when it has been verified, as such i seen no reason NOT to put the rest up when i got the printed sheets in.

    The men who put the work into collating the info and identifying the winners ( And it wasn't me! ) deserve a HUGE round of applause for their hard work and don't deserve the derogatory remarks.

    I'm normally a user of Tic Beans but this year is the first time I've not got a bean in the loft due to unavailability & price.

    I'm going to try some barley as a hopper feed for the first time ever, I intend to supplement it with some higher value hand feeding when required.

    I was thinking of adding some brewers yeast to the barley on a regular basis,it's going to be a bit of a learning curve. Any tips?

    i fed lots of barley years ago i was getting it for nowt off am8 the birds were never to heavy and in good nick but got very dry in the feather so now i put a little codliver oil on it worked fine
