    i read about that..diclofen(spelling)...i would soon ease evry pain my birds have with with voltarol if i thought it worked mick
  11. Bill im of same belief, but there no consistency in the rules to enforce this. So i would forget about checks and enforce a clearer rule to determine whats right. Mick

    Sparra Hen

    i feel for all that are getting hit. im in a built up area and have it relatively easy but my most dangerous month is march. The SH hen is an animal at this time and often comes into built areas to feed before lay. however they are still an animal and need fed, its up to each and evry fancier how to feed them or "not". As i saw posted earlier lose one = act..lose 2 missed chance...and lose 3 means your prepared to let it happen. atb Mick
  13. jasus Cem what if it was a hen the first time :emoticon-0140-rofl: but point taken Mick
  14. Thats exactly what people are telling me, bobs dont need to be down for bird to be clocked as long as pad is in confines of loft. ???????????
  15. Walter that is the plan that thru bobs then pad. But i hear others telling me differnent and im confused Mik
  16. thanks Bill I thought it through and thought i was close , but the rules are that obscure, who knows whats right until challenged. Mick
  17. Im going to use ets first time this year. I dont know why, i was quite happy with T3. If ye all can try and picture this without photo as i havent made box yet. I normally had a drop trap on landing board, but i intend to make a box to cover drop so i can include pad. Pad will be underneath landing board in close proximity to drop, an external box will be made to completely cover width of pad with bob wires external to pad. Box will also have a flip lid that can close. Now this is my pickle, i would like to make this box portable, and by that i mean move to YB loft later on in the year. It can and will be screwed to whatever loft its in. would be nice to hear thoughts on this. atb Mick
  18. good luck to ye all tomoz, hope a basics winner amongst you. Mick

  24. dabbled as a kid with me dad in the 80s/early 90s. Teenage years kicked in and beers/women came to the fore. It wasnt until 2003 when married with own home that i set about building a loft 2003, age 29. Me dad packed up same year, i disposed of most brought done what i thought would race and kept 1 or 2 stock. I have spent a fortune on stock that have done *expletive removed* all into this area over the years. Now im concetrating on building a consistent team of distance consisting of ardens crossed with local blood timed from france. i have also invested in a few Scottish birds to try. I have won a few races but dont class meself as a good racing man yet. Im still learning and building. so to the answer to your question is 10 years and best bird is hen to fly France twice for me. atb Mick
