Morning all

Did not know you sir but RIP and condolences to you and and the family

Very well done on the write up Ryan you have done a great job very informative .

I treated for kanker,cocsidiosis,and worms every year ,before pairing but this year didnt bother so we will see if any difference ,usually over the years no probs with youngsters .

I think you look for something to improve your idea of a good handling bird ,what conforms to your likes ,Wiley says throat i wish he would say what he looks for in this theory ,if you wish to put in a bit of speed ,or increase the distance your birds do then shop around with this in mind IMO.

For the un educated how do you know your birds has this disease opposed to any other illness,on one hand we complain about vaccination for Pmv then on the other look for new vaccine for something else ,god help us we are our own worst enemy IMO

Not breeding a lot buying in some youngsters,rearing single young off race team ,racing widow hood cocks with a difference ,better organised ,and trying harder .

Good morning to all

I have"nt been letting birds out for a while once in 6 weeks and a cock s/hawk has been down and looking about to see why ,and i mean down hopping across neighbours grass on to my wall and then down and hopping about between my sheds looking about ,i had a lot of trouble spring of last year more or less witnessed 3 kills ,wife chased it of bird ,me and the dog scared one off ,i lost 7 birds ,NOT !! going to happen this year.

When you clean out a vacum cleaner ,you become a vacum cleaner !!!

My cocks and hens have looked at one another through mesh wires for 5 weeks approx ,no problems no hens pairing the gether or anything ,only one upset let hens out once and 2 year old hen buggered of into my mate loft took it back they havent been out since .

Hope its a good 2017 for everyone and it brings health wealth and happiness.

RIP Ron.

A watch ,outside security light ,furry lined out door cardigan ,a towerie ,whisky and tumbler ,guinnes book of records,socks,slippers ,and all after telling fowk dinna spend money on me ,count myself ver lucky .

Merry Christmas to you all ,hope you have a good few days relaxing .

Thats the thing i have, the photos show it exactly ,i paid it on the 16th i got it today 7 days eh some English companys cant give that service .

I have had a few things from China yes very cheap,i am currently waiting for a thing made of plastic ,it is for holding pigeon in until i vaccinate can be be used just on my own (we will see how it goes).

Good morning fowks.

Thats an awfy skinny fish

Had a plastic molded one up until about 6 year ago ,about 10 ft long by 5 had some nice fish as well.

I was a butcher when i did work and one of the places i worked for was a company that imported birds from France to fill orders for a large number of hotels all over the north east and they were cheaper of course and i am sure the farms are buying in youngsters to rear from europe.

I spoke to SHU at 12 o-clock the day they said (Linda ) that it was ok to let birds out for exercise ,so far are we now eh .

I see in BHW online message from RRPA that the holding in of birds lifted is that just in England or is it in Scotland as well ,I just wish somebody with the real story would lets know .

Now after reading and listening to the ensuing debate ,no one shareing the same opinion as per usual even the top brass dont know what they want i am totaly confused ??? I take it you can let your birds out only in a avery with a mesh that will keep out little birds sparrows etc but you cant fly them out in the open as they will be able to make contact with wild birds ,now as usual there are the few that say they will go their own way and i cant blame you but as for me i think i will keep them in ,i think????.
