aye ready

probably been passing thru bakes and took the opportunity but now that it knows they are there it will be back why do people have these things absolute no use for nothing drastic measures needed if it's going to be a nusiance klaus

was thinking of that kirky but don't want it all over the garden etc as pigeonpete says "it sticks to everything"

cheers pigeonpete(ok)

thanks mate i only usually put someting on the floor of the loft till their all basically perching then remove it but if it was lying ok then i would maybe leave it cos of the time factor i have with the birds

looking at page 55 of the BHW this week the fancier has his young birds on some sort of bedding,it looks good and i would like to obtain it anyone know what it is from looking at the photo thanx martin

dougie the sparrowhen will be hunting like buggery the now to fatten herself up before she goes down on eggs in the middle/end of april then you will get peace from her for a while cos she solely incubates her eggs until then be vigilant (don't leave the birds for a second)

this post was put up originally by catalea lofts and ressurected by myself after i couldn't find find it less than half an hour ago so why is it been removed and by whom

where did this thread go can't sem to find it,it was put on originally by catalae lofts

alex the ones that are not on eggs give them their freedom out of the boxes aswell you are preventing the natural driving process of the cock and you'll find if he gets to drive his hen to the nest they'll probably go down on eggs that bit quicker (ok)

as i said why are the post's being removed (scared)

why is all the posts been deleted

totally agree watched this over and over again totally unfortunate it's a contact sport and these things happen

Another good busshy flier that nobody has mentioned is steve sutton and one of his best pigeons was THE BOMB 16x1st 3x1st fed 2nd amal 12000 birds the bomb was bred out of THE SPLASHED COCK NU 74 V 79267 bred by tom larkins x NICKIE NU 73 D 32876 3x 1st and she was daughter of pluto,another of steves busshy's was champion COW-CLAP he had 16x1st 9x1st fed and there were more

he's gave up the ghost mate try slipping a dummy egg into the nestbowl tommorrow night you might be able to kid him on that she's finally laid sometimes it works, she might be barren

not heard of him in a long time dougie

was he not in partnership with eddie wright at fountainhead at one time dougie

alex i use the coconut nest felts but i also let thm build on top of them with straw if they wan't to

why do you lock them up in their boxes,never heard of anyone doing this while their incubating eggs(birds must be going of their nuts with boredom)jmo

was at the scottish central combine meeting last night the combine is going to ypres for it's channel race 2 weeks earlier than the norm with the snfc common sense to me

i just let my roundabout birds go down on a second nest and as soon as the first pair are sitting 8 days i remove all the hens wether they've laid or not

10 and 12 for me

we in scotland will not have the new issue ring till next year so were still using the old style chip ring for 2010 chers M

just wonderin as the bricon has 2 pins at the bottom and when slid into the ring they branch out at the bottom and lock the chip in place whereas the unikon hasn't got the pins and just slides and locks

do these hold any ETS chip cos i've seen the unikon and bricon chip and they're different cheers M

mine faces NE as well rab but mine has a dowelled front(snobby (happy)) but i made shutters out of perspex and they can be removed if required,but they never are,just keep less birds than nestboxes
