This is a great book for any fancier,I got mine from the pigeonbasics stand at Blackpool a couple of years ago, and still read it many times, and have permission to post some of the many useful tips from it, for the benefit of site members and any interested fancier can go to the editors website http://www.pigeonbooks.com TIP/ If you give apple cider vinegar or lemon juice to your pigeons, do not pour it into metal drinkers that are not enamelled.
