cumbria combine portsmouth, the birds were liberated at 9.30 in a light n.w wind, good luck everybody

cumbria combine portsmouth not fit to liberate at moment, update at 9.30

;D ;D ;D ;D

have you had them tested for canker dave as any time mine do that 9 times out of 10 its canker mate.

lindsay, hope youve got some more back mate, i can remember years ago jack hodgson lossing most of his young with only 9 returning, that year he won the y/bird averages in club, them 9 worked there way back for 5 days mate but they sure learned a lot,hope they keep turning in for you as the ones back will take some losing now mate.

try dipping them in a bucket of duramitex mate right up to there neck, working it in with your fingers but make sure you get the mixture right or you will burn them, probably feather rot.

looking at the wind direction for this weekend it looks like its going to be a tough one, i personally think they have had to many easy races this year (ie) not enough hours on the wing and i think old pigeons will struggle never mind yearlings, hope im wrong, we are at portsmouth 289 mls, whats other members views on this and best of luck to everyone racing this weekend, i think we will need it.

if young are exercising ok and droppings are good i leave well alone.

lindsay sorry to here that mate, most should work back, makes you wonder at times if its worth all the time and money to get knocked back all the time mate, hope you get them back and get them birds to portsmouth, youve spent all week getting them right,i will see you later.

get yourself a blow torch but be careful, better than any sprays plus it makes your floor bone dry.

well done lad, keep it going, it can only get better

used this product for at least 15 years mate and i can tell you this will not get rid of canker.it does what it says for yeast and candida, always give this for 3 days after you have treated with antibiotics, i agree with what it says in your link 100% but where does it state that it treats canker?, p.s, get yourself a microscope and find out for youself, i did.

dont think it treats for canker mate, just my opinion.

5mil to 2 ltrs for 3 days mate.

25 left out of 48,,stopped 10 yearlings flown 238mls, only flew 78mls as youngsters,2 hawked,1 for lessay this week leaves 12 for portsmouth in a fortnights time

beat me to it redcheqhen, i will have to learn to use both hands.
