I know wot yer sayin. My best yearling this year had a dropped tail feather last year but luckily selections no quite that stringent.All the big winners ave handled ave never seen a poor yin. Just think that if you believe in a certain type o doo and youve bred enough for decent team then why waste time and money on them JMO Cheers steven

John mate Have only got room for fifty younguns. Im kill wot a dinny like ie: the yins wae the tail up when you handle them, bent or bashed keels,snifflers, grunters and non conformists. Been daein this for years. Nae point keepin wot ye dinny like. Cheers steven

still got two tae spane then that will be it.Bred 68 killed 19 gan wae 49 hope to find that elusive champ somewhere in there.

I have for sale two Vandenabeele cocks. I purchased these cocks from M & D Evans back end of last year along with two hens. I have bred two rounds each of them and they are obviously untested. The reason for sale is that I have had the pairs as prisoner stock which has driven me mental as not used to it. In the last two weeks both hens from the pair have got out by me so enough is enough. Having just started with the vandenbeeles this year I will probably regret this sale but if I keep them I know the inevitable will happen and they will get out as well. I have included a couple of photos as well as their original peds. Would like £70.00 each. Buyer to arrange collection Cheers Steven

31frae 32 appleton 122 miles. Last 6 hame on sunday one wae half a wing,one wae skint keel and another wae its ETS ring removed. Was 7th, 9th and 10th club 1 min 30 after race winner.

Have had a few SNFC ticket winnin birdsb that have bred hee-haw. Had yearlins doon for first time tae breed SNFC ticket winnin birds. Have spent thousands on stock that bred nowt and had gift stock that done the biz. Been in the loft since a woz walkin in amongst some o the best fliers that we still read about in the fancy and still canny get it right. Jeez o its a hard game!!

No much cope lockin a thread after one comment. The chance for debate a bit stifled me thinks!

Solway fed at appleton 122miles tae the fechan sendin 32 All the best tae the members this weekend

Ye aslong as in that minute

Quite right bigda. When a was a youngun seem tae remember some of the original STBs bein miles fast or slow un givin the clock setter all kinds o heedaches. The twa men who worked oot the velocities were wee Dickie Graham of the show fame and the late great John Carmichael. The backs o clock envelopes were very much tae the fore LOL.

If you were flying 56miles 13yards. It took 1hr 14 mins and 40secs to complete you would multiply 56 by 1760 to convert miles to yards then add the 13 extra yards to give you 98573 total yards flown. Then you need the time in minutes so 74 mins are already known plus the forty seconds which are converted to minutes by dividing 40 by 60 for 0.66. Final calculation is 98573 divided by 74.66 for a velocity of 1320.29. Hope this is correct as this is the way my physics teacher telt me how tae dae it way back in the eighties. If he was wrang then theres been a few false positions in the fechan club until we got the computer software lol. Cheers steven

Sounds like a new calculator is in order mate

Ironocally they might no be sh** ater all just the breeding took a generation skip?
