No but I would encourage my competitors to do so

I cant think of one good reason why you would want to put something like this in the drinker whilst they're rearing young.

The wing around 12 weeks of age, the body when they throw the 5th flight or around about then.

Nice bit of kit you got yaself there, best of luck with it.

There was a fella called Chapman from Nth London that used to advertise them in the RP, always had a full page spread.

Just reminded me to charge me cans up

Please state if the pigeon had any pied in it. Add the eye colour if you so wish.

Will start a poll on another thread and see if that'll work

Twine, cotton, catgut etc. gets caught around their toes/feet whilst rummaging around towns. The stuff tightens, toes/legs swell and eventually fall off.

Think were getting there believe the reverse end of the match was made into a point then used to remove the canker lesion then rubbing the other end over the wound.

My father use to race the Boeykens strain and the fella he got them from told him to treasure any that showed the dark tip on their tongue, said they were the breeders.

Its generally said that youngsters will throw their first flight at 12 weeks of age, you could add another few weeks for winter bred youngsters.

I heard the same, I was told though it was a Swan-Vesta match (the red tipped matchstick for our younger viewers )

Peter, I haven't treated for canker for many years now, what I do give them is an Iodine solution twice a week through the summer months and once a week throughout winter.

The English team looked like a rabbit caught in the headlights. Much work to be done.

Have a good'un folks.

:lol:

No plans, just play it by ear. One thing I have learnt is that a weeks rest can do them the power of good.
