  1. in most if not all species on earth there are 2 main motivations FOOD and TERRITORY
  2. tammy who said there was a problem if done properley
  3. if the hen does not know her box she usually perches on the floor and the cock will stay with her
  4. yes nobivac is oil based and colombovac is water based i have used both and found colombovac the easiest to administrate nobivac seems thicker and can leave a oily mark on the neck if not given properley just my view
  5. hi tammy and shadow i respect both of your statements have you ever bought in new stock and put it in the stock loft could this cause problems then if some birds in the stock loft have been injected and some not just wondering
  6. well said craig there are many childrens web sites for those that want to act like children without coming on this site all the best to all you adults for the coming season
  7. NO CHANCE OF A LIB TODAY
  8. if you are injecting for both paramixo and paratyphoid its the same size dosage and like north wales novice says in the neck for both try and inject in the right hand side of the neck for one and in the left hand side for the other so you avoid sticking the needle in or near the first jab obviously dont do them at the same time preferably 2 weeks apart with multi vits after each treatment we treat for paratyhoid first with a 10 day treatment of parastop first then multi vits then inject
  9. yes in my view a blow torch should always be handy but dont be to severe as they can kill good bugs as well as bad ones just a sweep over the perches and floor is sufficient remember FRIED EGGS WONT HATCH
  10. myself and linda she is the one who does the cleaning out and the training also the exercising and the motavating she also pays for everything but i have to carry the basket to the car never mind i may be able to get someone to help her do this
  11. manchester united have many many players in their squad to choose from but they can only field 11 players in a match the same as everyone else to stop breakaway clubs you need to keep it as fair as possible ive said it before and i will say it again if the big boys are so good with good birds why do they need to send so many yesif they are in several clubs [nationals etc] they need extra birds but at ordinary club level they could send as many as they want for fed cards but limit them to a near as possible level playing field surely if they had a 20 bird limit they could sort their best 20 for competition inthe club race or is it because they work on the theory of the more you send the more chance they have of winning and the advert will look better just an example of how our club works is we have a 20 bird limit before the start of the season each member nominates how many race birds he wants to nominate to compete for club racing at £1 per bird some nominate 20 some 15 and so on depending how many birds they have this is a one off payment all the money is put together and split between the races for prize money so your prize money is guarenteed before the start of the season we only pay the fed birdage charge because no money needs to be added to make the prize money as its already done at the start of the season thats roughly how our club works we also run a 100 club and also we have a sponser sec and each member if possible gets a sponser to sponser each race [ these are normally local business people]in return for their support we give them publicity in our weekly write ups in our local paper
  12. i might be wrong but mosslands1 sounds like someone who never even had a role as even water trough filler keep your seedy thoughts to yourself and give helpfull tips only that is if you have any which i doubt very much
  13. let the big team men have as many rings as they want but limit the amount of birds they can enter for club racing they can send as many as they want for fed prizes after all they can only win 1 first prize in each race they enter if they and their birds are so good why do they need to send large amounts ?
  14. take no hassle off them tell them to do it themselves if they can do it better
  15. we have the same as geraint and for the same reasons i think its a must for small clubs [15 member or so clubs] keeps everyone happy
  16. we personally look only at percentages ie how many they send against what they win
  17. i aarden nice bird you say on the heading winning busschaerts what as the cock won as i could be interested
  18. could be that she as laid an egg and the egg broke under her and if she did not get a bath for a couple of days it would go as hard as iron and she would then have a job to preen herself properly
  19. once a week for a bath until they have grown their last flight

  24. put the frozen one in the house to thaw out the one you put in when you feed them will take at least 1 hour to freeze up so there is plenty of time for them to get a drink
  25. have 2 sets of drinkers for each section when they get froze up put the others in and let the frozen ones thaw out
