Until Saturday

Good lad, you're on the right line

I think you'll find that we don't travel at 40mph. but the pigeons do

Wouldn't even consider racing old birds in your situation, no birds broken to new address and o/b racing starts in April and you will want to be breeding a y/bird team, trying to break birds rearing young can lead to problems, I would advise you to raise a round of y/birds before you attempt to break the birds and give yourself a chance to join in and compete on a more equal footing with the young bird programme, all the very best this year

Unlucky, take it that was indoors or is it a tad warmer over your side

Hi mate, I make mine 12ins. square and 6ins. deep (30x30x15) They seem fine with this.

Nice one mate, Hope you are all having a great time

You wont mess it up, just keep an eye on them and you'll be ok

7 to 9 days is about right, keep trying, if it goes on and comes off easily it's too early, you'll soon get the idea, I always put rings on the right leg and upside down, they are easier to read that way up, especially if you're working on the ringing at the club

My two collies when that evil white stuff was down

If you get them from the right sources you'll know they are the right quality

Would very much depend on the make up of the yearling

Best to leave some vents open at the top to let the moisture out

You on the Scrumpy-again

you sure

A lot of speculation surrounding the latest Southampton youngster, is there a Premiership club not interested

Thats a little beaut. hope it doesn't keep you awake at night

BSE was created by greed, introducing rubbish into cattle feed, I think if the GM merchants created a pigeon that won every week I might buy into that

I think it's the way to go, they're only speeding up the process that we've been doing for years,where in nature would you find a racing pigeon, it doesn't exist, we've created it like most other domestic animals

Do you not like GM spin?

Well done all, hope you get more this coming season

Sorry to hear that mate, the stoat is about 17/18ins long including tail which has a black tip, the weasel is about 8ins. long

100% pedigree for me, 4 or 5 generation pedigree of winners and breeders of winners, I've always bought "blind" and never been disappointed when handling the purchase, it costs the same to race birds from various sources as it does to race birds bought in from a proven family

I found the whole thing a doddle, but then I'm used to reading threads on here

If someone tried to give me a card for 3rd place when the winner had more come together, I'm afraid I'd tell them what to do with it
