i myself couldnt give a dam how many people send i know i can train and prepare six pigeons a week to go to race better than some one sending 40 . but if i had the time i would send 40 lol as its not about winning its about enjoyment as when i was in partnership with my mate i wanted to cut down the numbers but his enjoyment on sat was to watch every bird come home and not just winning our saturday was spent all day chatting outside watching the birds come home and some weeks we would have four races on two inland and two channel and we was able to do this because we had a big team . i dont understand some view why people worry what others send prohaps if they worried about there own team they might win !!! food for thought

 

best answer yet prepare your team 4get bout rest

24 w/hood cocks, 10 naturals and I like to have around 35 y/birds for the first race so will breed 40-45 if I dont buy any in.

just wondering how many old/young birds will most fanciers have this year the isrf plans are to bring in a 40/50 bird limit wot are your thoughts on this subject, if your a member of our fed do you think it will affect you and your performance!

we'll have 16 cocks and 20 hens for the old birds and may breed 50/60 young birds

best of luck to all members on here for the coming season and 2010 ;)

 

only a club can bring in this rule as the fed has to take your birds even if you come to the club with 100 birds

it is a fed rule that will never change

the best man in the fed is gerry o'mara, i understand he keeps in and around 30-40 old birds and i believe starts with 70 young birds, this rule if brought in will not effect him, hope this answers your question

he's the champion, so he is the best until someone takes the title from him, if you want to go down your road you can, dicky it up wot way ye like, as far as im concerned he is the man to beat,  he is the best in the south road fed, and some people dont like that fact, but they are the FACTS :X

at the secretaries meeting there 3 weeks again and the men at the top table said it will never happen and that it is not even on the agenda for the A.G.M

Members would be mad to vote on this as are FED is small enough as it is
