Recommended Posts

Pigeon Fanciers Lung ..............not being able to do the thing I love & was ok at .....I'm still a Pigeon Fancier make no mistake about that. >:(

Bloom ........when inhaled by some ....affects the nerve endings in the lungs & causes in me shakes,shivers,mucus,coughing,breathlessness

Thats Harsh, Doo - Think all of us who dont have it probaly take it for granted.

 

My own personal worst thing nowdays is all the extra health issues we have to be careful for, when i started it was basically coxi, canker, worms etc now it seems to be 100 extra health issues.

I would say most have been made from over medicating & now we have no choice but to medicate

Waiting for a bird to come home and waiting and waiting and waiting, after a week realising it's not coming home. On saying this, we did have one return after 6 weeks, obviously been hawked by the injury that it had got. Injury now healed and flies out with the others :)

Jealousy, Apathy, despicable acts against fellow fanciers, ie; killing their birds off, burning their lofts down, not allowing them in clubs, polo mint boundaries around their lofts, etc.

agree with dicky darky also waiting from september til april but jealousy is worst of all people should use it as motovation not badness its just a hobby realy is it

Worst thing about being a pigeon fancier is seeing the sport dieing, the backstabbing when your winning and cleaning out!

Breaking my neck for a jimmy riddle just as the race birds are due home. :)

 

Another advantage for having ETS  ;D ;D ;D

Ah Joe... maybe the worst thing is discovering that your yearling is actually a young bird.. then again...

i agree with most if not all of the above,the one thing that bugs me is all these (new) diseases/ viruses , when i started in the seventies you never had all the trouble you have now , it makes you sick never mind the birds

I think it's the few who can't see anyone winning without thinking they are up to something.

 

And it ain't new. I remember as a teenager two fanciers toe-to-toe in the club after one suggested he'd seen his first bird coming after his time on the clcok. Turned out that bird was his second. But the atmosphere that caused in the club, can still 'feel' it to this day.
