    "bops"

    I had 6 in one race The race yesterday was a stiff one with very low velocities .Ive heard fanciers saying it was too hot or they must have clashed I think the BOPS had a big big part to play. Its that time of year when they are teaching there young how to hunt and a easy meal is our Y/Bs

    "bops"

    I had sent 20 birds for there 1st race yesterday to Brechin Up till now I have 14 back 6 which have been hawked that accounts for one third of the birds I had at the race. I dont know if I wish tso continue the rest of the Y/B programe as I feel sick of whats still to come. I dont suppose Im the only one that this happened to yesterday. Dont sit in silence and hope the bop problem will go away get online now and express your views I dont know what the answer is but Im sure the SHU could take a more active roll than there are doing now. If this continue' there will be no pigeon racing in the future.
  4. Drizzling with rain and very overcast in the Buckie area that was the f/cast. Its too brighten up later
  5. Whats thats Jumbo "30 to 40 mls
  6. Keep your needle handy John because there are a few more casualties still to come The Bops are rife this year
  7. The Bops will stop it at the rate they are breeding at./ I cant see a future in any pigeon racing untill we solve the Bop problem.
  8. Well done Dave & Lee I was well impressed Good luck to all flying today .
  9. ""Theres nae Jim will fix it now"" John Honestly !

  13. Well done John and to all timers in a very very hard race
  14. This is how a result should be printed out Clear/Clean and with all the details. A great presentation well done
  15. Nae wonder there are so many big fat backsides In America

  18. Its not Y/B racing is it . If a old bird cant drop into its loft when its in the area. It should not have been put in the basket in the first place ( END OFF)
  19. "" Maybe no sprinters John""

    So Fed Up

    I canny keep fighting if I have no birds left. Im retired and started up again to enjoy sitting out in the garden watching my birds come home from racing Watch them have a bath ect Not to be ripped to pieces in front of my eyes and be helpless to do anything about it ( ITS SO BLOODY SAD. )

    So Fed Up

    I have just returned to the sport . I have spent a few grand on Loft/Stock/and everything else that goes with the sport. This was to be my first season racing, to which I was looking forward to. My birds have been locked up all winter due to peregrines in the area . My young birds are needing out as they are getting strong on the wing. This morning I put out 2 spare cocks to test the air withing five minutes a hen peregrine pinnned the blue cock in my neighbours garden I was over the fence and it flew off The cock is not badly damaged and will come ok. Im sitting just now thinking about packing it all in . I feel I wasting my time and my money just to feed Bops Its very depressing Im going to give it till the end of the week and the decide what to do
