I have a load of unraced yearlings and they will go out to 300 mile

1000scousers were asked if they thought britain should change its currency to the euro 99% said no as they were quite happy with the giro

Kind of agree with this also. I'd sooner treat before the hatch for a couple o' days than leave 'em untreated.

Well done for getting them tested mate. I guess you have to decide what next. Moxidectin would seem to be a problem with feeding parents. Ivermectin is similar product but as you use one drop on the back of the neck it won't have any effect on the young in the nest I believe. Best O' luck

Tiz a shame not to go with the orignal challenge. I have nearly all yearlings having moved house, and all must go 515 mile. The first time I've sent yearlings this far but. ;)

Still haven't seen why you can't race a young bird as an old bird, have not seen any rule against it. I've done it, and have not seen any changes to the rules to make it illegal. As for the NFC being the only true national in england....... I race with BBC and BICC cos these are the biggest toughest races I can enter. When it comes to birdage I think the mighty UNC wins hands down. ( I'm a little out of the radius though )

Looks like a sound idea ;D

The challenge should be for what it started out at. Too many people want to move the goalposts.

Count me in at 500 mile Bordeaux BBC 515 mile for me got none over 400

Rugby is a game played by men with odd shaped balls. God save us from bloody soccer. Got to work weekends so not seen a ball played. :(

They look great, but don't let em out or you might lose 'em in the snow ;D

They were the first thing I used to read ;D ;D ;D

welcome mate hope you find any help you may need on here

May be an ideal start but she wants to start now. Pair of young 'uns here in Rugby if you want 'em. They will be ready in a couple o' weeks they wont leave here unless they are good.

Young birds must carry a ring of there birth. Old birds however must carry a registerd ring. Don't matter that it carry's a young bird ring. Pointless putting two rings on, as it only needs one and it can be a young bird ring. In the 70's I raced my young 'uns as old birds. now I just rear a few late breds train the hens with the young birds and send in the old hens National. Works well for me.

I wouldn't worry about the fret marks one bit. Giving 'em names is the kiss of death though.

Can't agree more Scottish birds may have the biggest test in the world.

Tobbacco is the way to go mate. Keeps all lice and mites at bay. If you have broken eggs tiz calcium defficiency not bacca. Don't see any grizzles

Had me Busheaarts out to 630 mile Pau and Tarbes, and done well. Not the starview lines mind.

Me too mate and they look a picture.

Nothing is kept pure here Chichi,but I think you are entirly wrong about the whites I have a white grizzle that flew Palamos last year and Perth as a two year old. White Buscheaart's and I bought in the Aardens too.

Shepherd's at Leicester have 'em. Sold in packs of ten. Sold all my young 'uns the other year cos we were moving and I got about 40 from them.

Tiz 4 inches deep and still snowing here.

Brian Denny, Geoff Cooper, Mark Gilbert, Mevr Deweerdt. In reality I couldn't afford the best, at first hit, so I would probably go to Massarella's and buy 10/12 for racing. As for strains, I wouldn't even think about it.
