Guest BRYANBROCK Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 no bother m8 as for feeding tic beans years ago i fed lot of beans it was called pacemaker we used to get it from the pet shop there was maize.tares.and some maples but mostly beans it was used a lot but mostly for national racing very high in protein there was one lad i knew who fed this to both young and old birds and he flew extremly well from 80 miles to 680 miles but the beans then were dark in color nowadays they seem to be pale not for me i once put some beans in a jar of water they took nearly to 2 weeks to sprout years ago they would sprout in about 3 days so i personally dont think they all that good for the birds of today cheers bryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roland Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 We all used to get a wheat / or barley or mix for the winter from the farmers. Some still do. I moved away, and then came back here like and don't know which ones do or don't. The fanciers ' nod nod wink wink scenario ;) and think they are clever. Some will fetch a little for another sometimes. After close seasons finishes you wouldn't believe the drival they spout about whos' was good or indifferent etc. Best is that they think they are clever. Then wonder why the lad or two won't be training their' birds in the coming season :-/ But I suppose I should get of me butt and phone a few farmers. The one I posted earlier is a Grain merchant and also a farmer. But sticks naturually with the Merchane prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
