White supremacy rules

Yes I like you(same as ) see birds acting naturally and picking what the need from their surroundings, whether it be the beach, hard core, building sand, salt from the sides of the roads, the underside of my car, burnt wood and ashes and they seem to crave it despite having red/black minerals, pigeon grit, pecking pots and mineral blocks on a regular if not daily supply:-/

I know carbon plays a big part in keeping the crop healthy :-/

They are Van Moochers, a well known breed in parts of Scotland ;) Nice birds Doogie where did you mooch them from ;D

Yes it is quite common

I know they love it and miners used to take home bags of it for their pigeons when I worked in the pits. I was not into pigeons then so never thought to ask. As I said my brother has a chance of getting me some so I would like to know what is the best form to get it Also interested in whats it in that is good for them. I get type one hard core for jobs and if it sits in my trailer at all my birds are in picking at the small and fine particles :-/

Aye they are fine, we have use them but pound for pound pigeon ones are cheaper.

Was it the shiel or blae ???

Aye best wishes to Maw Strapper

I crush anything that I need to with my mash and jeely pan I get scallop shells for nowt and crush them, a lot cheaper than oyster shell

We used to mine really hard coal at Seafield due to the compression of the Forth and it really shiny when cut, anthracite is really shiny as well

Every day is a school day, I knew you would have an answer

What form of coal should I get, lumps, dross or fine ???

He does, I also got him 4 ton of cow dung last year as well, he has the ideal set up for a 120 foot loft as well on an embangment overlooking the firth of forth, sadly he only has raspberries and gooseberries on it :(

Piff puff poop ;D ;D ;D All their poop is recycled as my brother takes it all for his garden, waste not want not in oor hoose, I am working on my carbon footprint

I don't think you should be advocating breaking the law on the site, we can't have that. I will say a prayer for you tomorrow at the church Archie;) ;) My brother is a historian (my mum dropped him on his head when he was young) and he does mining history so he collects fossils from the mines and open cast. He can get coal in all shapes and forms so I was wondering what would be the best form to get???

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D As long as I keep it dry Take at last look at them before they indulge

I like to keep all supplements to the birds natural and cheap, does anyone use coal, coal dust, coal dross or coal combe and what is the best way to give it to the birds. I can get loads of dross, dust or combe from my brother Any advice appreciated

;D ;D ;D

Pure protien and nice with a wee bit garlic

Aye well done to them all
