In a way then you have contradicted yourself by saying the genetic make up is all different, hence the genetic make up is different for each bird in your loft so consequently stating that all birds would need to be tested and not just the odd one or two that your taking samples from as there genes are either weak or strong

Early you refered to human terms you wouldn't take a headache pill for a headache you didn't have, so well go along your lines, in my family home at one time we had 8 of us living there all being fed the same, watered the same, and we mixed with the same people, the only difference was our healths. However we were from the same pack, so in your perspective we all should have had the same health am I right?

Recently I sent of a request for some pigeon rings to the RPRA but I received letter back to say that my partner hadn't paid any fees however I Have his RPRA membership card infront of me, I must state when he became a partner when all rings got transferred to me the RPRA had my nephew down as another fancier in Hornchurch to which I made them change? So I'm thinking they've took the fees as this other fancier and not my nephew any help on how to go about this matter would be appreciated

My grandad who's 92 had pigeons 70 years ago in Derry on the famous lecky road. My uncle Ron Hales was a really good fancier on the Isle of Dogs racing in the one time very strong Millwall Club. My Father has had birds for over 40 years. Myself I have been in the lofts since crawling, the same as my little boy now. My nephew also had a very strong interest however with the other birds and with Millwall and peterbough as well as other clubs trying to sign him, he has other things on his mind. The misses can't stand the birds but she helps me when needed training ect

In my opinion 6 weeks before pairing the birds need to be treated against paratyphoid for 10-14 days there's many stuff on the Market to treat for this, after that they will get treated for canker while sitting.

Forget all the blind diagnosis personally I would take a few to a pigeon or good avian vet, if you cannot do that mate get the droppings sent off and explain the situation,

It's what I use and have done for a good few years I always pick them a good while before I intend to use them so they are dry but they are picked straight from the tree never take the ones that have fallen you never know what may have fouled on them dogs, cats foxes ect

no not really change any feeding at all the stay on diat 200, with added extra linseed, however there is no rations, they get as much as they like but i must say i like my birds to feel the winter, one day a week they will go hungry, however the weather is very very warm for this time of year.

he states anything you value stop after 7 races everything else send them on However how many young bird race programs have more then 9 races?

System X describes how it is done, was a system which ronnie bigwood passed onto derek nichols supposedly. He states they will moult flights, but the constant heavy workload will slow the wing moult down. Myself i am looking to follow this system this season for a change to see how it goes as i dont want to be darkening and undarkening due to the hours i work

The edible version Is known as flaxseed oil and has great benefits not only producing soft and silky feathering, but also offers the birds healthy fats mainly omega 3 and a lot has been writing about it's benefits for us and our animals, it has the ability to control blood sugar levels and also helps with digestion, but anyone who sees my widowers usually comments on there aggressiveness and I feel the omega 3 has some contribution to it as it has a good effect on hormone levels and with any fats they are the best source of energy much much better then any carbs

Andy, anyone who knows me well knows I like to experiment "don't tell the misses" lol but I like to knock up concoctions and potions especially with natural products I am a big believer in oils and my birds for years and linseed oil is one of the ingredients I regular give to my birds just looking for another way might be strange but sometimes finding a different way works 100 times better then the old way easy is the hard way!

A year ago i read about how a fancier boils linseed and it goes like a gluey texture but cant remember much more does this ring any bells with anyone, or know how to use it without feeding it to the birds?

41

really wasnt a bad result for me as i had 2 players on -1 and two players with 0 points so aint bad

shame the picture isn't real mate its been Photoshoped

Bertie Campuis also makes a big impact at there lofts also

how much for bilcos gas ian

yes i use pine needles, but i always pick them the year before so there nice and dry and always sprayed with insecticides, i mainly use them cos im a tight *expletive removed*.

registered however never got an email back from them?

I have been using thin bleach(30ml to 2 litres, in colder temperatures, 10ml to 2 litres in warm temperatures) say for the last three weeks after some advice from a top sprint flyer. Have to say i've been impressed by the way the birds have been moulting and the health they are showing, but it is used only once a week.

this season i am going the natural product way, also it is the cheaper way

i remember at least 15 years ago old fanciers dunking pigeons heads fully emerged under the water with this in a bucket, to cure respiratory infections.
