Good Luck Andy

only sent 16

UNC are at Rivenhall - 202 miles to me - sending 18 - 20 - Although we were on darkness with the youngsters, some have moulted anyway so some being stopped

If the weather is warm - the birds themselves want to eat less anyway, this coming weekend - the birds will be racing in a strong wind - currently WNW - its also not that warm, so the birds are hungrier Agree with Davy about the moult and feeding well - and the best, these are the flights we will be relying on for good racing next year.

I've got various measures if you get some of those tiny jars of jam (like sample pots) or the likes of horseradish sauce (Morrisons sell them) - the small glass jars vary in size and hole between 3/4 and 1 1/4 ounces The paste jars - like Shiphams (beef spread etc (yuk!!) hold about 2 ounces I also have a set of measuring spoons - and the 15 ml spoon (tablespoon) holds half an ounce A dessertspoon - is generally 10ml - approx 10g - x 2 = 3/4 ounce (which is 21 grammes) My youngsters get 1 scoop of 15 ml in the morning - and a scoop plus a bit in the evening

you're not feeding too much - you're feeding too little

Its not enough - young or old birds I know there are some good fliers who fly to the corn tin - and that's all they feed, and are also not bothered about how many youngsters they get home, I feed my youngsters 1/2 oz morning and 3/4 ounce in the evening, and as much as they want Thursday - I may not win - but I get them home, as I want them as yearlings

First one is a land line number - 2nd a mobile number

Well done with the racing - and well done on the report Mick - a good read

This was our 2nd season on roundabout You seem to get the best out of the hens - but the cocks under perform - to the point you wonder why you race them LOL !!! This year we also had a small team of widowhood cocks - but the roundabout hens still out performed them Our results have certainly inproved these last two seasons since we started racing the hens

loads of images on google

Well you need some microscope slides and cover slips (e-bay are cheapest) make up your own flotation liquid (you can just use sugar or salt in water a saturated solution - until the water won't take up any more of the solid) and away you go (evil)

How many eye pieces? Just the one? Whats the magnification on the eyepiece?

Well - I didn't get any Scottish pigeon strays in that weekend - but I did get North Roaders in, so there was some clashing somewhere between North and South

Ours are doing 1900 ypm - very strong SW Wind (24+ mph)
