Guest REDFOXKRAUTHS Posted January 5, 2007 Report Posted January 5, 2007 well i will put lol in full if you want me to!
Peckedhen Posted January 5, 2007 Author Report Posted January 5, 2007 Thanks everyone. The forecast was for rain, clearing later. I took one hen to the funeral but, the weather was appalling - throwing it down and very low cloud cover. The bird wouldn't have had a chance of getting back home so I didn't release her :-/; the family of the pigeon fancier understood perfectly. Sod's law, two hours later the rain stopped and the sun came out! > : Lesson learned though...I need to keep my birds in training if I'm going to use them for 'dove' releases!!
Guest REDFOXKRAUTHS Posted January 5, 2007 Report Posted January 5, 2007 yes that would be good all round, ben

Peckedhen Posted January 6, 2007 Author Report Posted January 6, 2007 It's new experince for you, Susan, hope all goes well with the next release, how many whites do you have now?. Not enough!! Two stock pairs and 12 left from those I bred last year. I'm going to breed a lot more now I know what I'm doing - maybe get another loft this summer. you never know sue the word might get around and you may do more releases. Hope so Martin. I've done two funerals and a school opening but these were for friends - I've yet to make a penny!! ;D ;D
birdman55678 Posted January 6, 2007 Report Posted January 6, 2007 Hope so Martin. I've done two funerals and a school opening but these were for friends - I've yet to make a penny!! ;D ;D Make a ad with your pc and post them at all the local wedding chappels, churchs, community bulletin boards, laundermats, etc. I have tried the wedding/special event thing in the past and actually did well, the one main problem for me was seems like all the weddings were on friday or saturday and interfered with the racing. after 3 years I quit doing it because of the weekend calls. Good luck. Ed
Wiley Posted January 6, 2007 Report Posted January 6, 2007 im a dab hand with photoshop,and always looking to get my work about far and wide,any help needed for advertisements or whatever get in touch will be a good cheap price.
Guest REDFOXKRAUTHS Posted January 6, 2007 Report Posted January 6, 2007 YES PUTT AN ADVERT IN THE PIGEON BOOKS ASWELL
jimmy white Posted January 7, 2007 Report Posted January 7, 2007 i think you did the best thing sue, but at least you tried , who knows you could have a good thing going there in the summer, weddings , funerals , birthdays etc plus some charities word would soon get around :) good luck anyway :)
Peckedhen Posted January 7, 2007 Author Report Posted January 7, 2007 I'll bear that in mind Wiley - I'm hopeless with photoshop etc. Actually I'm hopeless with the camera too - I can't catch the birds in flight very well - often I get the basket with the lid down or an empty basket!! ;D ;D Thanks Jimmy. I can't work now due to health problems but it would be great if I could do a paid release now and then!!
Wiley Posted January 7, 2007 Report Posted January 7, 2007 No problem Pecked any help needed just give me a pm
