Must agree that is 100% correct,just looking now at the relevant page in the Unikon manual,reasons for doing this are given as,birds ets ring might be missing,faulty ring which will not mark,ring might even be on the wrong bird etc.

May be useful as a alternative but you can now get seals for the baskets from the RPRA that dont need pliers to seal them.

Of course you can.

What is the stuff you mention called Slipsanol,cant seem to find anything about it.

This ring was issued to the Barry HS. SEC is Mrs.J.Jones.01446 402568.

This is something which would be under the organisations rules check with them.

Just been confirmed the final race is being held on Sunday,it is from Hexham 203 miles,all the best to anyone who as birds still in it.

At least they will be at the race point,so if there is any chance of a race they will be up,but as you say they wont want to be stuck in the baskets for days that wont do ybs any good at all.

I guess they were basketed yesterday so they must of thought that there was a chance of a race.

If the weather holds up the final race will be on Sunday subject to conformation,any members on here hoping to come to see it.

Guess its like a lot of things in pigeon racing what may be good for one fancier is not so good for another,remember years ago I would train my youngsters twice a day from about 20 miles and do really well,this year I trained quite a lot up to the first race but now there racing some weeks they have a midweek toss other weeks they dont and I am having a really good season up to now with them.

What a fantastic bit of flying 10 birds clocked in 17 seconds when the wind is totally against the fancier (he,s situated in the East)and takes the first 10 in his club and first 10 in the Fed.Wind was South East.

Bird is getting picked up tomorrow just in case anyone else decides to ring.

Sorry mate do you mean this is the guys number for the bird I have.

This was the correct number for the bird I got but yours may be from a different club as the number is a lot higher.

NO MATE NOT HEARD A THING.

Sorry mate my mistake.
