klaus dont send them all first week take your time and split them as its only bath week after as well and dont rush the training wait for it to warm up and pick your days

i have got lavender pekins lemon pekins ,for eggs i have 10 ex battery hens that lay superbly also got couple of marans there eggs are huge next lot in are some new hampshire reds that iv been promised just got to get the run completed its nice to have a variety to look at

£60 stan

put me down as a contact i can get birds picked up within say 20 miles of coventry and have got a spare section to keep strays in , its a great idea all best stan

if its really exposed to the weather and the rains driving in I would screen the front off with something that lets air in but keeps most of the rain out theres plenty of stuff that you can use rain deflection netting from garden centres also the stuff builders use on scaffolding is ok and does the job

domestos and then the gas burner followed up by harkers loft dressing then the easibed on floor and thats it for a year never change floor dressing until after racings finished

i have met bakes and hes a nice bloke he will go far in the sport as i have never met anyone so keen and full of enthusiasm all best stan

I think something that i was told years ago when i started my apprenticeship with British Coal sums it up nicely, the thing that stuck with me was the words OBSERVE and LEARN

man u won 3-0 liverpool drew 1-1 celtic drew 1-1 rangers won 1-0

very smart they are josh, where did you see the pictures? look like they would be good for widow hens

Another example was a few years ago i paid out big money for two pairs of birds from a top fancier anyway after 2 years they had bred nothing for me , i got talking to a big mate of mine who was interested in this strain and was looking to buy some in i told him he could have the two pair for nothing so he came and had them end result they have bred him 4 fed toppers ! he takes mickey out of me all time over them but again you pays your money you take your chance,

Both mate i have been lucky and had really good racers and breeders in my loft that have been gift birds, some years ago i had the misfortune to have a stoat get in and kill a dozen hens anyway an old boy gifted me some hens so i could race cocks on widowhood 2 of those hens bred me very good birds that won several channel races, through friends in the sport i have exchanged birds with over the years and fanciers have done very well with my birds so it proves that you dont have to spend big money to gain success

thats what the sport should be about helping each other and as my old mate says what goes round comes round in other words you reap what you sow

i have found over the years my very best birds have been gift birds not ones that have cost me afortune

Josh who says parastop does not work and why? i think if you use the genuine article not something in a brown bottle with a label on it you should be ok its stood the test of time

same here mate i would have it sorted out without police assistance, whats the country coming to? maybe our wonderful leaders will give up their second homes(paid for by us) to these squatters if its yhought to be the done thing to let people from other countries steal our home and ignore our laws

I purchased 6 off formula one lofts and out of them one pair has produced winners for me and a big breeder buyer winner as well needless to say went back and had 6 more last year

No probs Roland i would do same for anyone, if anyone ever needs birds picking up within 25 miles of Coventry i will sort it for them as i have staff working all over the area and will get them to pick bird up and bring to me, its nice to get a thankyou as well all best Stan

ex shift charge engineer for british coal at 5 different pits, took the redundancy in the end as no where else to go , now director for a charity that works with people with learning disabilities very rewarding job that lets me race the birds

Its snowing lightly on and off here in Atherstone Warwickshire very cold as well although we are better off than most looking at news

Im not far from m42 m69 m6 and right next to a5 there are no probs at all with main roads we seem to have missed most of the heavy snow side roads are dicey though all best stan

canker treatment, resp treatment, purple spray for cuts open wounds etc or wound powder good quality probiotic as mentioned vary the products used

As my mum always says you are what you eat! athletes today all supplement their diets looking for the thing to make the difference and we are the same with the birds

i have used the milk powder on corn for as long as i can remember and my youngsters always look well on it so see no reason to change if you read whats in it you can see why it benifits them and as for cost its not that expensive compared to a lot of so called pigeon supplements, i also use it once a week all year on corn for ybs ask anyone whose seen my birds they always look well and droppings are like marbles

i use ets because it suits me but am not able to use it in one club for several reasons which i wont go into but it still did not stop me topping fed on a fast race and being shortest flier as someone else said it dont make the birds any quicker given the choice i would choose ets every time
