yes, im sticking to all the natural fresh, ie: cloves of garlic, fresh lemon, cider vinigar, thanks again all. snowy & westy

im no expert as you all know (far from it) but did spend sometime as a kid with my uncle when he was racing, & i remember him just training & maybe one race for the young birds, i think these young birds are put through too much for such a young age, hence the amount of young birds losses, not giving them time to mature properly & become wise, all of his races was with 2 yr olds & older. just my opinion. snowy.

GREAT LOFT JOE

I THINK THE 3RD PIGEON HAS MOULTED ALL ITS FEATHERS!

BHW FRONT PAGE HEADLINE BIGFOOT & ALL THE LOST RACING PIGEONS FOUND ON DESERT ISLAND!

great that was bruno, bet you will never foget that one!, & i bet you look twice at the weather REPORT now!

its sister now gone? whats the matter with my new ones it has flew round for 2-3 hours as high as you can with my others & came back, just as nearly dark, when others was trapping, she went! oh well, got a couple left (lol)

samantha? are you sure the rumour going round was he was a bit of a LUCKER ?????? OR??? only joking doostalker....(my humor)

thanks jim

hi, just another idea,,, a lot of people have pcs now, would it be a good idea to ask your local pigeon club secretary, or whoever prints off the paperwork, to add the websites address on the bottom of all the pages, as a footer?

report +weather already been forcast= weather they are guessing? i think

yes bruno i think your right, i have left her sitting the last 2 days now. oh well im im slowly getting there. thanks again

very true all, all i have recieved from anyone on this forum is good advice, so keep watching your % go up up up. thanks all.

LOST IN THE KINGSTANDING AREA OF BIRMINGHAM, ITS HIS 3RD FLIGHT OUT, HE CAN JUST FLY, SON WESTY IS ( DEVASTATED), IF ANYONE KNOWS ANYONE IN THE AREA, WHO KEEPS PIGEONS, CAN YOU PLEASE TELL THEM TO PHONE OR TEXT 07743440351. IT IS A PIED, MAINLY WHITE, WITH BITS OF GREY/BLUE BARRED. THANKS, SNOWY & WESTY

thanks all for the advice, it seems mad though to take it a couple of miles one way, & its straight home, & then not even 50 yrds the other way & off she goes? as soon as i let her out, there was no hesitation she flew in the straight line( but the wrong way for me), & once when i was a kid & we went on holiday (apart from my dad, as he had a heart condition)(hereditry) & i took my first albino muffed pigeon to great yarmouth, & let him out(about 100 miles plus from birmingham) i phoned my dad up from yarmouth later that day & he said it was back at 7.30 that evening! the racing pigeon i have only went on one training flight before i had her & she was on eggs when i took her! oh well thats pigeons for you, their a funny old game... & Jimmy, all my birds eat out my hand, it does make them at ease & mee too. thanks again all. keep the advice coming.

what seed is best for them molting? linseed?

thanks carter, im not in any club yet, just getting ready for next year i hope. thanks again anyway. snowy

hi, can anyone tell me ? i have had this 2005 bird off a local a few months now & she has been flying round now for a few weeks, she has now paired up & on eggs about 10 days, i have been taking her about a mile or two(graduly) in the same direction for the past 2 weeks to get her used to the basket, & this morning i took her the opposite way not even 100 yrds & she flew back to her old owner? how come? is this the norm? im confused as i thought she would be straight back. thanks, snowy

hi tim, WE HAVE A WOE COCK, & I THINK ITS A WOE CROSS? AS SHE HAS TWO DIFFERENT COLOURED EYES, & NOW HAVE 6 2005 RACERS, http://www.freewebs.com/racingpigeonsbirmingham

like to see your mobile loft hyasinth

which of your birds seem to be the most winners? cocks or hens? or does it go both ways?

i was looking for one too, just got one 2 weeks ago, 10x8, from the local bargain pages, check your local paper or look for a shed to convert, (ive just got to put the bloody thing up now!)

lovely looking bird carl, is it a hen?

jim/ webmaster, why dont you report this guy to the webmaster & block his messages, as i think its the minority idiot shallow sad people that have nothing better to do than pick fault & go on to genuine pigeon fanciers! the word JEALOUSLY comes to mind, so i wouldnt even let this low life enter your thoughts. some people are so sad & alone, they have nothing better to do than do this sort of thing. let the children play jim...
