Reminder All welcome

Have problems with crows but none with sparrow hawks Food for thought

Congratulations to the north fed lads on their Successful show today. Hopefully it will be repeated next year.

Thanks for the comments guys I was hoping others would turn up and get Some more info on them. As far as I know all Feds in Scotland raced for One of these diplomas

Thought might be if interest in this year of Commonwealth games in Glasgow My late father,Bill Cowie won this in 1970,when Games were held in Edinburgh

Have to point out the hen was raced by Chris Donaldson of Peterhead She won Marlborough in 2011

In my own experience you'll breed mostly Cocks(all red) with blue and cheque hens. Also pied hens Pied cock looks a cracker in second pic

I'd take two down if Jim Hannah is confirmed

The very best experience in a lifetime of doo Racing for me The wives also enjoyed themselves Well done the SNFC

115 from the north Chris , got 3 away misel Don't know total ,sorry

Why not just move it alternate years,but of course wind will always dictate where winner will be. But no inland national has been won in north section. Yet

Robbie,you know guys up here will send wherever the race point is without complaint. Don't agree with your earlier point though as my best old birds this past few years were at YBN

I would be happy with that. Don't agree with split/seperate libs though, not a national then is it.

Where would you like to see the YBN flown from?

If the north guys had that attitude John they'd never send to any national. Sounds like sour grapes to me.

Can't understand guys moaning about the race points or contemplating seperate libs. North section fanciers happy racing to win Section and hope for a decent open position. Prevailing wind in UK is south west,you have to live with that. There have been plenty brilliant performances into the west section over the years,from ALL race points

Well done Davy and a big thank you to the Angus Fed for collecting strays both from Aberdeen and North fed

Aberdeen & District RPC b/b won by Alex Rae from aberdeen racing his own bird and winning £800. Aberdeen Fed b/b won by Alex Dickson,racing a bird bred by Gibby Reid,both from Aberdeen. Winning £274 each. Congratulations lads.

Been in touch with Angus fed and arranged to Have aberdeen and north fed birds picked up and brought up as far as Forfar at least

Well done stu

Would like to congratulate the North fed members on a great sale,and thank them for the hospitality shown to my wife and myself. Best of luck to those who bought birds.

Will try and get through,would be nice to meet some of the lads & lassies. Should add young eens will be ready 2/3 weeks, buyer will get a pair provided all goes well in rearing both nests.

Hi Ally Would like to donate a youngster for Your sale on Sunday. I bred a couple to slip under young eens for the races. Jim Cowie (cowie&mackie)
