Welcome to Pigeonbasics always something to learn & always interesting topics

What about new members who dont know anybody on site in order to be recommended ? Which was my case,How about new members not being able to start a new thread untill they have made a certain number of posts ?, that way you would get a measure of the individual concerned

I once stitched up a YBs crop using ordinary cotton that i soaked in tcp, It had hit the overhead pylon cables above my garden,It seemed fine & didn't look to be in any discomfort,however I lost it in a flyaway about 3 weeks later.
