THESE REPLYS " WHAT DID MY GRANDFATHER USE" HOLD NO WATER WHATSOEVER.

MEDICATION SUPPLEMENTS ADDITIVES USED RESPONSIBLY  ARE THERE TO  AID THE FANCIER IMPROVE HIS PERFORMANCES

SCIENCE  HAS PROVIDED AN ANSWER TO PROBLEMS AND DISEASES OUR FOREFATHERS COULD ONLY CURE WITH THE BIN.

AS IN OTHER SPORTS RESULTS AND RETURNS HAVE IMPROVED AND THE PIGEONS HAVE BECOME MUCH MORE RESILIANT ENABLING US TO SEND THE BIRDS BACK WITH ALOT LESS REST INBETWEEN RACES. HOWEVER THE MISUSE OF ANTIBIOTICS HAS CREATED RESISTANT STRAINS  OF BACTERIA MEANING WE ARE BECOMING MORE ON MORE RELIANT ON MEDICATION.

OUR RESULTS ARE VARIED MORE THAN OTHER SPORTS DUE TO VARYING WEATHER CONDITIONS SO IT IS VERY HARD TO COMPARE PAST PERFORMANCES AGAINST OURS JMO :)

 

 

Over tha last few months on this forum there has been thread after thread, post after post, sayin that each year that gans buy the mare younguns that are lost and the worse the racin gets. Now there is a lot o difeerent theories, BOP(pure *expletive removed*),phone masts , weather, sun flares(ye sun flares) and such. Could it be that the pigeons being bred and indeed sold ur just no up to it?. Could it be that our birds are overcrowded? Could it be that we the fancier would rather put summit in the water or food than leave it oot just in case?. I say this as somebody that likes a geed tinker wae systems but it makes ya think!

Cheers Steven
