    Breeder Buyers

    Yeah i'd say around £25 - £30, but some go daft after people have had a few pints xD
  2. Im sure they'll be fine mate, I've got a pair rearing 3 ybs, and they're coming on well even with the cold!
  3. I did have a look, But couldn't find one! if you fine one, Let us know He was a 'good pigeon flyer' With the mess in the hut it didn't look like he had a clue
  4. just been watching Calendar, There was a pigeon flyer who has been catching wild birds and selling them, He pigeons lofts was in a right mess muck wise, He was from Derbyshire, His names was Yates.
  5. Not the weather for keeping pigeons, Bloody awful having to mess about with water and stuff at 6am in a morning and then do the same when i get home
  6. Daft as it sounds yeah, one reason, i lost a yb in 2010, came back the winter that year and i was short of hens so she had to stop, Paired her up and bred a yb of her, As a yb it scored, 1st, 2nd, 2nd, and was in clock more than that and took the pools, Last year he was barely raced cos of the weather but still managed to score, So for that one reason, every bird what stops in my loft i like to try a yb off.. And as it's only a stray people may not be keen of it, a friend of mine get a stray in, Trained and raced it.. 21 1st prizes later and the blood is still about in the world now.. You don't know what they can do/breed until you try them
  7. Sorry to sound daft but.. why not breed out of her?
  8. Looks like a nice hen to me!

Atm, The cocks are getting fit, Going out daily until around the 1st april, the i will give them some training, and let them see the hen on return only, Not repairing, No more eggs from race birds as last year it mucked them up so trying this method what i saw on Dvd The stock birds are rearing a few young birds here and there and the young birds, Are just learning
  17. Couldn't agree more, I only have them out at the weekend with working week days my dad has them out all week but the 2days this weekend was enough for me! Scared me to death
  18. Haha yeah, Made me happy to get her back, She's a stunning young bird
