  1. lol jim dont read they hype, how do you think strains are created,the create of the strain, gets birds from joe bloggs and steve smith ect its a load of rubbish crosses dont make good breeders, you have good and bad pigeons in breeding and theres only one way to find out and that is by breeding from them. Pair crosses to crosses will do no harm at all
  2. Joe, we didnt speak on the night, however they were lovely young birds you put up for the sale, a true credit to you.

    Yearlings

    Barren hen, takes me back to my success with semi widowhood, a barren hen in the right hands will cause many many wins, the old alf baker knew this, and so did i, i agree with phil dont push them to far,

    Lazy YBs

    the lazy ones, i give them a chance for a while, aslong as they are not having an effect on the main team, only then will these birds be put in a basket, and be taking down the road, to roughly half a mile, if they dont make it home there no use to me, as they can see my house from this area and if they've been on the roof for that long they will know where to land.
  5. as a life long tottenham fan, i hope he stays and takes west ham down :)
  6. josh has ur t3 been converted to thimbless?
  7. Im sorry to say it but i think its all going to end in tears unless something very drastic is done to either get this birds healthy, or to dispose of and start again. Im not sure the avian vet(DR.) in your area is of high reguard also as i very much doubted his last diagnosis of worms, i hope very much you come to a conclusion, and what i would say is reguarding the loft have a look around on the internet and such for ideas of lofts as in your design there doesnt look like there is much space
  8. Mamun2a sorry to hear however ive noticed in your loft you've had many problems and have many pigeons that are ill, i firstly would say its unwise to breed of unhealthy pigeons as the youngsters will be unhealthy, regarding cleaning eggs in my opinion it isnt a good idea, and could be a lead on effect from your pigeons being ill, as on healthy birds they wouldnt let there eggs get dirty just my opinion

  10. thanks phil, just was worried as ive never had a broken flight so low down before, so was wondering if it would have effected him throwing the stump out before the combines Thanks also for your reply novice
  11. Morning gents wonder if any could post there views on a broken flight right at the stump, litterally unable to pull the stump out, any ideas or views on racing would be appreciated. I should say it is his first flight

    Training

    when the winds in the west is when ill train my birds, pick and choose my days, no need to rush them in these early east winds
  21. ive had it in the past with two blues breeding a gay flash pied and a blue, and all mine are individually penned untill eggs are laid, so no chance of another cock jumping however parent on one side was a flash blue pied, is there any chance there is pied in the pedigree
  22. there is nothing wrong with the brown nest felts, its the BLACK ONES u need to worry
  23. my boys first birthday so romance is truly dead
  24. An Interesting question, if it was a hen 100% i would say defiantly yes as i believe hens recovery rate is very very fast, however it would also depend on the condition of the bird after the race, i.e loss of body weight. However had different experience with cocks, regarding the years we used to send lerwick, birds in this condition would be no good, unless it was a wind up the *expletive removed* job,
  25. very nice r harris, out of interest how many young birds would be kept in this section?
