  1. your correct he didnt commit to a specific one without testing 1st not 100% sure but i think the blindness is specific to para
  2. in the interests of fairness you would have to include all levels of football if you go that road and im afraid that is far to expensive for small clubs
  3. the further you go raceing the more distance comes into it as birds tire the further they go and slow down in most cases also it depends on weather conditions wind, rain etc im speaking about 50 to 200 miles further not 2 or 3 miles
  4. paul that was explained rafael pulled out of the 2 footed challenge at the last minute = so no foul gerrard went through on his man 2 footed and in the air at best a booking but the rules say sending off as for the pen, it wasnt one for me but that was explained also- the ref was in a bad position to see it as he was catching up with play after a quick through ball he had to make a call as the linesman didnt
  5. aye the ref was certainly on their side today
  6. i contacted a vet and relayed the symptoms which were serious one eyed blindness when an eye turns milky white swollen wing buts (unable to fly ) y/bs dying in the shell just as they are due to hatch and dying in the nest at a few days old lameness in thier legs i was advised that with these symptoms it was para,e coli, sammonella another fancier advised me to use parastop and i never looked back i treat every year after the moult as im not going to have that happen to my birds again i had to remove most of my stock birds and a good few racers dave
  7. i can assure you it works i had it in 2005 and it cleared my birds up no problem they say 75 % of lofts have parathiphoid and dont know it
  8. if birds dont clear a racepoint straight away say they take 10/20 minutes to clear due to birds of prey ,overcast there are a number of reasons then recalculate thier times with the 20 minutes going nowhere then the further flying birds have a big advantage if you are an early drop and say you get a bird at 12.00 then you see a bird going over head 5 minutes later travelling 5 miles further if it maintains the same speed and traps well your beat as the wasted time spent at the racepoint all counts into the equasion
  9. if you give it to birds that are already in egg then you are defeating the purpose as if you have a problem it will be in the eggs aswell as the birds and they can re infect any old bird youve treated as you say best remove any eggs and any laid in the following 2 or 3 weeks dont know if your doing this but if treating with parastop i treat every bird in my lofts at the same time jmo dave

    did cem manage to get someone to take his class winner up for the top table
  15. do clubs not have thier own radiuses within fed boundries so each area is covered by differant clubs to my thinking boundries are set so that club members are flying against other members situated close to them hence making for the fairest raceing if your in one area and want to fly in another your looking for an advantage which defeats the object of clubs just have a fed if your in the boundry of a club and are a suitabe candidate then you should be flying there otherwise if you open up or have no boundries whare does it stop 25 miles 50 miles 100 miles
  16. correct ive dropped off a few after work if im stuck they dont leave the depot till after 6pm and sometimes travel overnight between depots
  17. 1st question -is this guy a member of a club at the moment 2nd - is he moveing to try and win in your club because hes struggling to score in his own one 3rd - radius were put in place for a reason to allow fair raceing in a club/ fed and were prob put in place 40-50 years ago as hes out of the radius for your club is he in any other clubs radius there are lots of things you would need to know before you can pass judgement on this matter jmo
  18. i use them all the time brian always got a 1st class service its sometimes a good idea to phone up and confirm a booking as addys and phone numbers can easily be picked up wrong over the phone they prob turned up at the wrong adress lots of things could have gone wrong on route
  19. think a lot of us in the same boat there john back to work tomorow though so soft drinks tonight

  21. your prob right
  22. youve totally lost me there john either you know something we dont but it was never said the bird went into someone elses loft just that it was bought as a breeder buyer and had a few minor tickets and to me the birds just 2010 bred and has pleanty of time to prove itself as a racer or stockbird
