invalidusername Posted March 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Invalid is he on medication now?Depending on what it is, it my curb his appetite,so don't worry to much. You may have noticed on here mate, there are some DOOM and GLOOM merchants.Please ignore and enjoy ,whatever you decide to do going forward. These people are in all walks of life,don't let them put you off. Indeed those of us such as Chrisss, and pjc, to name but two, want our sport to continue and flourish. We would do well to learn from this little story, that is repeated time after time right throughout the country almost on a daily basis. Just that we don't know about it. Happy days Rab Smith Cheers for that. He's on tabs that Stuart gave me (wish I'd asked what they are :). By the time I get the half a tab down his throat, it's more like a quarter - whoops! A kind member is also sending me some other meds too, but of course I'll take advice before administering anything. I'm not bothered about doom and gloom merchants - although it stopped me in my tracks a bit at first. But if I think that way, I'd give up.

Peckedhen Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Keep going Invalid - you'll be amazed how many of us are gunning for this little fella! Just a word of warning......they're addictive! ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjc Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Invalid, i'm sure most would agree, when hopefully there is a positive outcome to this story it would be fantastic publicity for the sport if you were to write your story for the local paper. There are many threads on this forum about attracting new members, both young and old and its stories like this that people need to know showing the positive side to the sport.

swilcox Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 You can have a mate but i suggest we mate until he is better of the 2nd pigeon may get sick too. Stuart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjc Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 also Stuart, all being well would be better to have a couple of youngsters as it would be difficult for a newcomer to break in an old bird without some experience. Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invalidusername Posted March 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Good grief! :D The Carry On tradition is live and well in the world of the pigeon ;D I knew what he meant Quick progress report. Popped home lunchtime (not that I'm obsessed or anything). He's only now having one feed in the morning and one in the evening on Stuart's recommendation. But as it was his first day, I was a bit bad and gave him 5 minutes in front of the bowl - let's just say his head didn't come out much (are they all such messy eaters, though?) Took a quick pic before he flapped and nearly got out of my hand. He's certainly not right yet, but from the earlier pics, there's a big improvement. Thanks for everyone's good wishes and help so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doo Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 (are they all such messy eaters, though?) He is picking through the feed to get the grains he prefers, this is why there is a mess. Once he is better & you have him on a strict feeding program he will not make a mess till the result drops from his ass ;D best of luck Stevie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mikkey Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 messy eaters?? like us they have their fave foods so the bird will be flicking its food about to find its fave grains, the spoilt little sod :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invalidusername Posted March 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 whats todays update? Hi mate, thanks for asking! He's doing well and is eating good (a bit slow to eat this morning, but had head in his bowl loads tonight). He's been stretching his wings today and was moving pretty fast around the kitchen! I'm sure he's putting on weight as he felt so light last Friday. Will post a pic tomorrow to celebrate week 1. By the way, droppings being looked at by forum expert :-) Cheers again for taking the time to ask, and to everyone else for the interest. Watch this space for pic :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
