In the same boat cass, only we have a harder route into the Waterside ;D ;D ;D

Ours are away at 10:00am in Mullingar with NIPA for our ybs first race. (100mls) to my loft.

Hi cass, sounds like you have a good'n there. Where abouts are you flying into.

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner John, I've only seen your post. Most of my Delbars are from Ian Axe (Axeholme Lofts) and I have a few B. Stoker & B Mc Neilly lines.

Sammy the Harper pigeons came from a fancier in Ballymena by the name of Tommy Harper who flew them very successfully especially at the distance (500-600) miles

Hi Mark, I still race the Delbars and fly very well with them. If you can arrange the transport I will gladly send you a pair.

A view of my lofts & some of my birds.

As you know Jimmy, due to personal reasons I never got to race the OB programme but the one thing I realised is that when I started breeding I have ended up with far too many birds and most of the yearlings are untested.

Well done cass04, super pigeon, hope you get one soon John.

Agree with you jimmy, but I would also add that some of the best birds you'll probably ever come to own will be gift birds obtained through friendship.

Best of luck John, hope you get a good one

Hey Paul, If you are coming anywhere near the northwest, your more than welcome to drop in for a chat and a cuppa Pat.

Rick, if your going to call Paul names I will at least tell you how to spell it, Lephrechaun ;D ;D ;D

Nice pigeons paul, what breed are they, have you any ybs off this pair

Keep them going mate, survival of the fitest

I know it may sound silly , looking for a particular colour but i am looking for a grizzle hen, preferbly a kirkpatrick with a proven record.

Sorry to hear this Mate, I know you were successful in bidding for my ybs in the auction. If you ever change your mind or want to restart let me know and I'll breed you a few to get you going again. Best of luck what-ever you decide. Pat.

Its great if you can involve the whole family in the sport, unfortunately I'm the only one interested in my home. Sounds a great set-up you have there barlby.

Excellent Roland , If this poem changed the mind of one person getting behind the wheel of a car then it was well worth it.

Welcome to the site David, hope you enjoy. :)

versa laga irish mix, very good all round feed and the birds seem to enjoy it

Ridiculous amount of money to pay for any yb, not a bit wonder the HOBBY is in the decline it is in trying to attract new younger members. Its no longer a enjoyable past-time with all the money involved these days.
