aye ready

was told soya yoghurt from health food shops was good for doo's,going to try it

stb you'll pick one up cheap with ets being popular.A lot of stb's sitting doing nothing

GOT TO AGREE WITH HOTROD ON THIS ONE ALSO ADD INTO THIS HEMP AT 29.3%,SOYA BEANS ARE ABOUT HALF THESE VALUES AT 15.8%

If her line is leaving the goods i'd be tempted to keep something of her for stock purposes

just a thought does it really matter what u feed,if ure doos hit form nothing will stop them,my auld man won the john donald trophy for the best average over 17 races in the midland fed feeding a mixture produced by swainstons called trophy it wasn't a great mix but it was cheap.This was right out to sartilly with the scc

I had a g/daughter of rooie appie H74-865729 who's blood still runs thro some of my birds.The rooie appie was paired onto voskeroodog B82-6131994.Her no was NL-2559034

it must have been me then(dissappointed)(dissappointed)(dissappointed)

more likely to eat the rice cos its more like a tit bit

long grain rice good for any race,give a handful 1 hour before u take them to the club helps retain water in the crop

what was ur score mines 50%

it's a known fact sparrowhawks hunt at times and places where they have been most successful,returning there time and time again.so in my view fanciers letting their birds out regular at this time of year are asking for trouble.Racers are not fit enough at this time of the year so there chances of escape are nil.The hen is feeding herself up at this time of the year because when she goes onto eggs in mid april she sits the full incubation period (32 to 42 days) thats how fanciers get a bit of respite from april thro may.A sparrowhawk that is still attacking a loft thro this time is most likeley to be an unpaired hen

The sparrowhawk is not so named because it thrives on eating sparrows;it is derived from the anglo saxon [speara]meaning flutterer(a generalisation of it's feeding on virtually any bird)

paulo take a look at versa laga prestige,a bit pricey too but if ur not working with a lot of birds add this to ur list of candidates.i think it's false economy with a lot of fanciers they buy the cheaper feeding but feed large teams.Go with what ur pocket can afford,birds have got to work around the fancier not the other way round

believe me frank i know the difference between y/b sickness and pmv.I've had y/b sickness every year for more yrs than i care to remember.so much so that i don't worry about it now

move the egg away from the door bit by bit,then put a bit of plywood at an angle against the wall whils't she's sitting give her plenty straw to build and she'll be quite contented.had this happen loads times when i flew natural

if you have not vaccinated now is the time to do it i've seen first hand the damage it can do,there's been times i've not vaccinated but believe me i'll always vaccinate from now on.

I think fanciers should get a yearly wall planner [harkers were giving them away at blackpool]and once they find out the start of their race programme pencil in a treatment/product plan i.e canker every 4 weeks aviform tues/thurs probiotic sunday.this is just a guide as fanciers can make their own minds up

I think whats wrong with some fanciers is they buy too many products and then they find there aren't enough days in the week to give them all,so they just lie unused and go out of date etc.Chose a couple of broad use products and then plan the days of the season your going to give them i.e tues/thurs

have they got an open window they can go in and out of when their out till they get used to the loft. the 12 you got in today put them back out tomorrow and they'll give the other ones the confidence to come down.

how are they doing for u fifer?

pretty poor oldyellow but will keep yous posted on the results(wiseman)

WHAT A LOAD OF BULL,IF YOUSE ARE TOO BUSY LOOKIN DOWN THE THROATS OF PIGEONS UR AS WELL LOOKIN UP THEIR *expletive removed*.LOOK AT THE FANCIERWHOS BEATING YOU AND MAKE A POINT OF PUTTING HIS DOOS THRO ON A FRIDAY THAT WILL TELL YOU WHAT TO LOOK FOR

thanks for the replies my own are predominately dark ones if this is any help

maybe oldyellow can help,what is the base of this strain and their capabilities mines are via mr and mrs corkett who obtained the best from from porter and richardson,breeding y/bs for 2009

seems to have been passed at shu level that they dont have to be sealed in,but contradictory to this rule it seems you can make it a club rule for them to be sealed in,what a total farce
