Newbury for me sending 23 widowhood cocks.about 90 miles

£30 bid on number 3 for me please.

Leaving mine at home,got 19 yearlings and 3 older cocks,i dont like east winds for yearlings,especially if they havent got much experience.We are at marlborough about 70 miles to me.Ill wait till next week,Newbury.

you were to busy when i walked past Gail,but i did see you. nigel.

For me the show was poor,not many stands,you could walk aroiund the lot in 10 minutes,alright if you wanted something pecific but otherwise poor. didnt think the price of £4 to get in was the right one,even if the raffle included was an ets system.

i actually use a small bell everytime that i feed them, they are then used to the sound and when they need to come in just ring the bell. High protein feed if you are going on the darkness,and wait until a few start to drink then take the food away.keep an eye on them to make sure they are all feeding well before taking food away. hope this helps.

definately a cock!!!!!!!!

Frazer. if you dont race them you will loose them and thats a fact,they need the education of the BASKET, you may not loose them all but most of them will go down. As for feeding ounce and a quarter a day quarter in the morning and 1 ounce in the evening,that will give you control and have them in the right condition for racing. if you intend flying widowhood next year then pick out some young cocks after 100 miles and stop them. put the rest on especially the hens as you wont race them after their first year.

Correct if you log on JOS THORNE PIGEONS theres an article on his feedingmethods and how he uses supplements . ok TAFFACRE

Thanks GOT IT .

Does anyone have the Jos Thorne feeding method,that i can have a copy of.

Sorry neil its TAFFACRE actually nigel holloway and i fly with the SOUTH WEST GLAMORGAN FED. live in Beddau but the birds are in Llantrisant, mid glam. ok nigel

If this venture by the welsh north road takes off,and i personally think that it WILL then a lot of fanciers are going to join (i wont say national because i dont agree with that).Weekend racing is what everyone wants,not being dictated too and told where and when we have to send to get some racing.will be interesting to see how many people join from federations outside the welsh north road.No Giessen? then Strasburg will be the alternative.

If my memory serves me right it was the combine who changed the racepoints,i remember that last year a lot of fanciers had not trained their young birds in time for racing and they added comeback races in between the nationals to cater for these certain members to allow them to get their birds into the Nationals.Fanciers had trained and in some circumstances paired their young birds to coincide with the Nationals. This really upset a lot of fanciers . The fanciers in Belgium race their young birds early in the season and this is the same time that we have old bird racing,that is one reason we dont race on a saturday from Belgium,to avoid clashing.THe new national is south south east and would allow the fanciers to have weekend racin on a regular basis

i HAve had a few kits of 6 from louella and they were total rubbish,i even sent them letter complaining about the quality and heard nothing. NEVER AGAIN.

if you look back on the racing we had last season with the welsh south east national it was a joke,and thats putting it mildly,mid week racing,altering the dates of nationals to suit certain fanciers,and we all know who they are.I think the welsh north road should be congratulated for making the break from the combine,and another reason they have changed their route is they can now race from the longer races on a saturday and not mid week as it is with the south east national.As for calling it a national is a bit much i think you cannot call it a welsh national unless all of Wales has the opportunity to fly their pigeons. Good luck to them and i hope it works,bit lets think about the north wales fanciers they should have the same chances to fly their birds as anyone else in wales. just going back to last years racing for instance GIESSEN a total disaster and a lot of very good pigeon lost,they had NO chance. is it true they are not going there this year???????

5453 and 5426 sold.

had 6 of the same way bred myself in 2007 put them in a comeback race against exsperienced pigeons and took the firdt 6 positions, and they all made the fed result.

Numbers 4 and 5 are now sold. ring numbers 08k 5463 and 08k5441.

Thanks everyone for being patient,they are all correct now. These are grandchildren of the old Brasspennings and are for sale at a fraction of what others sell them for. i have handled them all and they are a creidt to the vendor.
