thanks to christian for sorting my young lad 4 white racers,and spending the time to explain about his birds/setup,hes made up with em,he cant wait to get them out,atb.

all sorted thanks got 2 pair collecting soon.

got sorted out with 2 pair of young birds from christian,going to collect them in about 10 days,thanks again mate,and thanks to others who tried to help us out atb.

cheers lads,but already tried mick at logic,a nice bloke but booked up for 6 wk,he does have whites and whites with bit a colour,but telling lad to wait 2 month might as well be saying 2 year we aint got none yet and hes asking how long they must stay in for so search goes on atb.

do many still keep pure whites,finding it hard to source a pair around sheff,

mick sent you a pm atb. any out there lads,nr sheff if poss thanks.young or old pair not fussed.

not realy andy just fancyed the whites because always had white around garden,dutch tumblers,fantails,ect,but want to try some that my lad can fly back from a few miles away,not racing just for our enjoyment thanks for reply.

sorry,i am between sheffield and manchester,edge of pennines great bop country,

trying to locate a few white racers,dont mind if there breeding pair or young birds,dont race so ringed or not,just for garden and small flights home for kids amusment/interest,thanks,can collect .

got some spare due to breeding,would like to swap for any canarys for aviary

thanks for replys will leave em to it,due to not enough time and thought on my part i made a set of six boxes to fit in a small hut/kitbox for the young lad,should have had four big boxes to take two pans me now thinks,you live and learn

ok this might seem a daft one but we are complete novices,lads tumblers have got 2 young in pan featherd up ,they have laid again so the hen is sitting with both youngsters in the pan with her ,is it poss to hatch like this,i cant remove the first round yet they aint eating themselves yet and due to box size cant fit 2 pans in ,tried putting young in box corner they jump in with hen or the eggs if shes not on them

quick update lad got sorted with birds,hes got 3pair tipplers,2 pair tumblers,1 pair on eggs at mo,thought this would happen,need bigger shed next .

lads been letting em out for a fly last few days,one down already due to bop attack,took it down mid air,then to the ground a field away behind house,not fast enough these days in a pair of slippers to save it bit of look replacement coming monday.

i was not present when he bought em,he got em from local old indian chap for a couple pound thought he done a right deal i just sorted the hut for him,plus feed ect.

good point,my young lad got these 2 week ago from a lad,told him these come off good high flyers but new to tipplers so he just took his word for it, will see how they go in a couple aweeks,he wants more now think hes addicted ,trying to source him some half decent birds.

what type are these anybody ,this years young ,tipplers or cross bred ? sorry poor pics.

thanks grizzler thats a great offer ,but 11 year old son wants some yesterday if you know what i mean,i will see what comes up ,carriage no prob i can collect within reason,thanks again.hes got 2 young uns here but not sure if there true tipplers,

thanks for reply ,as a lad most folk had tipplers around us,lad wants a few there like gold dust we are in gods country next week north yorks.

i know its a big ask,anybody got 1 or 2 pr rollers or tipplers spare to help young lad get started,not comp just for own enjoyment but want genuine birds to start him with free if poss,sheffield area thanks in advance.
