    Get rid of them full stop.It isn't the one they try to kill it's the ones that kill themselves trying to get away.A pigeon doesn't know whether it's been attacked by a male or female,it just wants to get out of they way.At the mo. I have three with broken keels two with broken legs,through diving for cover. Lindsay.
  12. I've just been scratching my head trying to remember a product we used a lot of years ago when my late uncle raced greyhounds,after taking the splinters out of my fingers i remembered it's name. IGLODINE.This in my opinion was one of the best products on the market at that time great for use on kids as it didn't sting and had no smell,healed and hardly left a scar( cuts and bruises).I don't know if it's still on the market but if it is, it's one no fancier should be without. Lindsay. PS. it's a clear liquid.

  14. I don't like using creams on pigeons,dampen some cotton with witch hazel and dab it on the damaged parts, they'll heal ok on their own.JMO Lindsay

  21. Hi Paul,keep taking the tablets mate and get some extra when the youngens start.It makes you wonder why pigeons do that .Usually the first one can be a bit stupid but the following birds for some reason seem to know it's safe and trap like bullets.My last old bird race I genuinely lost fifteen minutes with the first bird ,he's not the best at coming in,just about caught every race he's been to.The others when they finally landed would have knocked you over if you'd been in their way. Hope you have a great season with the young birds. Lindsay.
  22. Can't understand anyone going to work,mind you I tried it three shifts for fourty + years.couldn't see much sense in it then either. Like Paul the only time I log out is when I clean the computer up. Lindsay
  23. I have couple with broken legs,they are broken where the foot joins,if the leg is broken further up,cut a larger size drinking straw to the length required and split one side,they make an ideal splint.If the ring leg is broken slide the straw under the ring,as sapper say watch out for any swelling.
  24. Congratulations to you and your to be better half Joyce,I wish you all the happiness that a couple could wish for. Lindsay http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDr8Q7lDW8o
  25. Saturday the 10th of July,Flookburgh 45 mile.Just about trained up,will try to get another couple in. Lindsay
