Can anyone recomend a personal ioniser.The type worn around the neck.Or were I could buy one from.Didnt want facy trying Boddy and ridewood,as I wanted it before Christmas. Deb.

I called at a trade electrical supply's,and they advise on what wire and circuit breakers etc I would need,then drew a detailed diagram which my husband was able to follow with just a basic electrical knowledge.Hope this helps,PM me if you need the name of the electrical wholesaler they are nation wide. Deborah.

We used ivermectin for years,then the farm supplier switched to noromectin.When we inquired we were told that it was a the same product,but a different brand.Much cheaper than buying the little droppers.At £13 for 500 mil. Deborah.

What a coincidence,I have just called in at Bamfords this morning and saw one just like that up on the shelves with the wicker baskets. Deborah.

Grow up you little fool

Put your glasses on beauty home and read my answer.If you had a dilute hen to start with,you would hardly need to pair any daughters back to the cock.You would simply carry on breeding from the same pair to achieve the numbers you require. Deb

Yes that's correct.But if you have an ash cock that carries dilute,any yellows he produces will always be hens.Then the following season mate father to daughter to breed yellow cocks and yellow hens. Deb

And if the cock bird was dilute as well,you wouldn't need a ash red to carry pale,you would be tripping over young yellows. Deb

But only the cock bird can carry dilute (pale gene)The hen cannot. Deb

I reported four strays last year,all of which were wing stamped.I contacted the owners,none of which seemed interested in getting there birds back.One suggested,keep it or kill it then put the phone down.No wonder birds don't always get reported. Deborah.

I was in Blackpool today.All main roads are clear,side roads and pavements are turning to slush. Looking good for weekend. Deb.

We have always used Chevi-Vac S for paratyphoid vaccination,and had no side effects. Deb.

With all the talk of lights,has anyone tried the Boddy&Ridewood fluorescent tubes that give off a ultra violate light.They claim that there is health benefits for the birds,and better breeding results.I would be interested to no if anyone on here has tried them. Deborah.

Can anyone recommend were I can have my birds dropping tested. I have just finished treating for cocci and canker,and would like to have the birds tested to see if anymore treatment is required. Any help would be most welcome.Deborah.

My husband, breeds and shows Modenas,he usually has some for sale.He is judging modenas at the Nottingham championship show on the 28 December,or he may have some left to take to Blackpool.I no he took four pairs for someone last year. Hope this is of help Deborah.

Very good post. Our vet recommended Noromectin for worms,two drops on the back of the neck keeps them clear for six months,and also clear of lice. £17 for 250 mil, so you can imagine how long it lasts. Deborah.

Hi, I have four Modenas for sale.All show birds,three Gazzi cocks,one Schietti hen. £25 each. Deb.

Really helpful, Thanks Owen.

One of my birds which I have been training has dropped the end flight on either wing.I was wondering how long it will take for them to grow back. The new flights are sticking out about an inch. Thanks Deb.

Hi I used black nest felts last year and found them very good.But after all the bad press in the BHW I didn't use the ones I had bought in. I would be interested to no what your opinions are. Deborah

If its near Longridge,it would be Jim Eccles, who I think has retired.His old work shop were had all his sheds on display has now been cleared. Deb

I now have three pairs of Busscheatxlogan left £20 per bird. Thanks Deb.
