Sorry just seen it. Says permethrin 25%WP.

I have chlorcarb but there is nothing on the packet that tells you whats in it.

I have read this with interest and would like to know the brand name of the product that you and Kevin use. This would be helpful if there are inferior products on the market.

Thanks lads, going out for a birthday lunch shortly. Happy Birthday to the others that share this day.

The sparrowhawk is round this area all the time Fred. Had to chase it off a bird the other day.

Thanks lads, got one off e.bay.

Can anyone tell me if there is a printer that can be bought NEW that is compatible with Unicon ets.

Yes Roland, and if pigeons were not classed as poultry there would be VAT on pigeon food.

Spent all my money years ago. Now officially skint.

The sire and dam came with it for free, so thats why it went for that money.

Well that letter from LINDA BROOKES that i have just read is full of contradictions. I would rather see something in black and white from DEFRA.

The way i read it is that you can let your pigeons fly out at the loft for exercise only. According to the link above this is ok as it says pigeons are fed and watered in the loft. We are lucky this is not the racing season because you have no control over where your birds go, feed or drink during a race and there would be no chance of DEFRA allowing that.

Due to Fed Secretary Gibby Reid being in hospital and the low number of pigeons entered the show has been cancelled. The Fancy pigeon show is still on tomorrow at the Broadsword Bar, Hayton Road Aberdeen, with loads of birds entered from all over Scotland. If you are looking for something to do and fancy a pint why not go along and see some of these amazing pigeons and a chat with the other guys there.
