yes alf is correct in but cannot be used till july

have to agree with tony,safflower is a good seed but if u look at all the breeding mixes ist never in there,safflower is a good seed to use while racing tho mate

who's your buddys mick you buying from? PM me if you dont want to shout it to the world. Just interested as ive never done a loft visit abroad and dont no much about it over there

lmao

currently under going a set of reviews of pigeon websites which im hoping to review as a list of top 5 websites and this will be made into an article and sent into the RP and BHW, dont think ive found anyone to do reviewing of websites, they talk about websites but they have never been reviewed properly and have been fairly bias, in which all writings you will find tend to do. Wondering if you lads and lasses could help me on my quest to find the best for the fanciers around the globe. I have a few in mind but want to find out as many pigeon based websites as possible. If you feel a website should be taken a look at for the review of the list of the top 5 websites please pm me with the website link? Thank you very much for your help Wiley P.S i obviously know the top site on my list already ;) ;) ;)

full safflower??

ya never understood my point DJ it is clear. you are right foxes are wild animals, but racing pigeons are not. They are bred in captivity and when something is tamed to a human is called tame. Tame is the opposite to wild.So it isnt the point of wild vs wild. Its my duty to protect my birds and protect my birds as i see fit, so if my dog wishes to go out in the garden when it can smell the foxes which it often can it can. Will go out and not once has my dog come face to face with a fox, but its sensed them in the garden and as soon as the door opens the fox is gone like the speed of light.

THE WILD is the key word you used! Think about it!

Hi DJ i understand your point entirely, however its also a territorial thing my dog makes sure no foxes come into the garden as its her territory which is also as you say natural instinct not once has my dog come into contact with a fox and wouldnt advice it as they have hell of diseases such as mange. Like i said its a natural instinct for my dog and she considers the birds as members of her pack,so instinctively she guards the home and lofts and surrounding areas from introduers of the human kind and of the feline and fox sort!!

gd you got them on eggs, keep them hungry will help and also do not chase them out the lofts let them come out on own accord

wouldnt agree with the statement some people sell youngsters to get a bit of money for corn, training or even to help towards racing mate!

hi mick you got the link as a friends looking for a loft?

i agree with this

myself the same salt would have thought would have irritated the wound and was used years ago as a preservative. But he is right with honey the powers of honey is marvellous and over last few years has been used in band aids

be lovely if you could breed colours like it

isit a working mans club sean?

have to say this memories of pigeon fanciers stories of the past in there younger days are brillant and a great memory of mine, especially when Wing Commander Bill Thomspon tells them, '' i'll kill the man who threw the monkey" Some of the stories you hear are amazing. I think the best feeling although ive won the federation a gd few times and won the combine. I dont think anything beats the experience when Greedy Guts topped the combine. He seemed to go in slow motion, he was very low down and come over the neighbours owl shed and landed straight into his box, done 3 spins in his nest box, till which when i put my hand in his box he tried to have a wrestle with me till i grabbed the rubber while still fighting of his leg and into the clock. And rest assured when greedy guts has a fight with ya he can cause damage, many a time he tore the skin lucky on that day he never.

lol mate i havent checked the toes of your pigeons to be honest i just checked the legs were okay,but i doubt it as there not related to this hen. But there looking lovely young birds, i hope they will do you the buisness,but then you would have to change your pigeonbasics name lol

ive got web toes come out of one pigeon all the time she only chucks them out every now and then but these ones are the ones that hit really well at the sprint

how many you got about eyesign mate?

if that green one is real i want it !

happy bday mate

was speaking to a member of this site on msn vic just now and he said that if a hawk finds your loft they certainly will keep on returning but not sure if its been scared away

good idea,when i was interested in the birds tho i contacted the breeder before i bidded
