  2. Can you join just for young bird national thanks for any replys .
  3. Aye but if they can see 30----70 miles how can you lose them in short toss ,or 60 mile race ,do they hate their home ,lost interest in partner,eh well maybe we always say they have got charecter like humans ,but seriously i dont think they do see that distance,or mine didnt this year.
  4. Well done Eric i hope all your family well too.
  5. The subject i raise is ,just started racing after 12yr lapse ,bred some youngsters trained them first year, only started racing this year, lost the lot or almost.IMO! The only thing good for racing is a cross ,what i did first year was paired them up by strain i think i made big mistake what do you think??
  6. I would think its worth debate in our Fed but on a new topic nae here ,start it up see what you get???
  7. Will youngsters leaving nest now moult out before end of year ,and when are they classed as latebreds ,glad to hear your opinions.

  10. Make that 4 i have a NL rung bird havnt got number yet but will see the morn.
  11. You can ask the experienced men from now tae doomsday its just doos you take it on the chin ,pick yourself up ,and get on with it .I have just started back into this and it is hard to get going i expected this and saddly i am right lost birds, had dissapointments ,but there are no easy answers.
  12. Low clouds touch of blue in the sky SE wind ,blinks of sun,ie hard to say whats going to come.
  13. Lost 5 stock birds in last year ,leaving door open ,or lose catch ,if i buy anything again for stock it will be latebreds easier settled i think.

  15. Put on the full ring number and more chance than not someone will tell you who owns it.
  16. George Slavin Glenview,does he still sell birds and are they any good ,i thought i would ask those who know I came across his place on the laptop ,any comments and views appreciated.
  17. I dont know about you but i am back into this after a12yr break and have found it hard to get any homing, as for me i know it just takes time to get a puckle doos that will fly for you ,its certainly not a easy hobby to find a bit of success in,good luck anyway ,i will just look to my young birds now.

  19. We fly on the east side ,and i think Ayr NR fed are at Newpitsligo am i right this weekend ,we suffer losses up this way to flying into the north ,if you dont have losses count yourself very lucky i would say ,on any side .
  20. Warm,a bit cloudy sun trying to break through ,the chance of a fine day.
  21. Well it looks as though its over till the young birds sent 6 and nae a feather from 240ml Rippon.
