  1. the weather here in england in the north east is white out with snow covering the area 6-8 inches deep the birds are just through the moult and most of us have reduced our birds for the winter but the breeding of our young birds will be underway shortly for 2011 race season-the early birds will be pairing their birds early in december.
  2. welcome to the site -do you race your birds and if so from what distances

    best i could recommend is to have a w/end at blackpool in january =go to the pigeon show and upstairs in the spanish room during show you can buy birds arrange sale and pick up at end of show.
  4. door in centre of shed 4 ft section in line with door to back of shed .section to left with nestboxes in section to right with perches .seperate loft for young birds with no perch boxes only poles that can be removed or pivoted up to roof and secured to enable easy basketing of young birds.the main loft where the 4ft section in. build a frame comeing off the back wall to put your baskets on and possible storage cupboard .trapping through the windows to whichever type you prefer but landing boards in front of windows. when starting with your young birds dont let them sit on the roof of the shed or the houses if your loft is in your house garden,and make a wire basket to put on your landing boards to let your birds see out during the time you are at work.this will make them feel secure on the landing board.feed tit bits through wire basket to tame young birds-it works and when the basket is removed they are tame enough to fly up to it even when you are standing there. get them to eat peanuts and you will tame them easily.
  5. going down it wont take much to be better than NEHU Show couldnt even buy some nest felts only staying for saturday then home again to Co Durham.
  6. well the pigeons love it -but i like cream cakes nice in moderation
  7. thought proposals are going back to clubs to vote to see if we where going to the channel with the up north combine and if so might be flying their program.
  8. water as hot as your hands will stand put in a good measure of bicarb and watch them enjoy it.

  13. * Report this post * Reply with quote Re: 2011 Belgian Rings Postby Mark Palmer on Thu Nov 04, 2010 6:45 pm **************************************************************************************** I have it on good authority that the 2011 BELGIAN rings will be of the same design as the 2010 Belgian rings but with the addition of an aluminium core. The basic design of this ring has been much praised by everyone, as it has a hole for the chip to slide into, without the need for any sharp edges. With the aluminium core in place, the 2011 Belgian ring will be fully compliant with RPRA rules. Regards Mark Palmer . Image . . . Winning the world over with advanced ETS technology that is very easy to use. *********** FOUND THIS ON ANOTHER SITE THOUGHT IT MIGHT INTEREST SOME THAT WANT TO BUY FROM ABROAD.

  15. kirky thought scarb to south shields wasnt that far we geordies are friendly -lol
  16. well what happens if the bricon master fails will you rubber or try race marking with the unikon-if you intend to use the unikon disconnect the unikon clock base and connect to the ringer useing your black lead the rest is easy but when you print it will only give 2 copies just go back in to basketing and then end same and it will print another 2 copies.also go onto the speedy while at home and program your race points into it similar to what you did on the master,or it will ask race 1 scroll along race2 and so on. i have also used this cross connect every wednesday for all mid week races. but if it suits you to carry 2 masters then ok.
  17. the NEHU stopped its members from racing young birds that were rung with belg plastic rings in 2010 did your organisations do the same. does anyone know if the belg rings this year will be all plastic
  18. since 5 guys bought unikon in my club i have not used my bricon master even at open race my bricon speedy was conected to a unikon base for basketing that is what they are compatable for.

  23. never thought of it as form had one this year i called it pin head feathers didnt seem to affect its flying ability.
  24. mate put top half of maniquin in coridor next to y/birds and it quitened them down loads-gave some of his mates a fright when they went in tho
  25. Then go to houten holland you will love it .and it will allow you a couple of extra weeks to save the pennies. NO DONT SPEND IT ON THE KIDS-THE SMILES ON THEIR FACES WILL BE WORTH IT. When they are grown up you can indulge yourself
