kev01293 Posted July 19, 2006 Report Posted July 19, 2006 :-/hi i am a novice living in crawley,west sussex and have had a yb reported in prestatyn,wales can anybody recommend a good pigeon courier service to collect my yb as i dont want it to spend any longer in the courier box than is necassary as im assuming my yb is quite weak after spending 3 days flying in the hot weather,the finder is a non fancier who is managing as best she can but obviously i need to get my yb home asap any help is much appreciated kevin
PIGEON_MAN Posted July 19, 2006 Report Posted July 19, 2006 KEV,JUST A FEW IDEA,S,IF EVER I GET A BIRD REPORTED BY A NON FANCIER THE FIRST THING I USUALLY ASK IS THERE ANYBODY AROUND YOU THAT KEEPS PIGEON,S,I ALSO SEARCH THROUGH THE RING RIST AND TRY AND FIND A CLUB WHICH IS CLOSE TO WHERE THE BIRD IS USUALLY YOU CAN THEN GET A FANCIER TO COLLECT IT FOR YOU AND TO MAKE SURE THE BIRD IS O.K. TO HAVE SENT BACK,SOMETIMES IF YOUR LUCKY THE FANCIER MAY LOOK AFTER IT TILL IT PICKS UP AND THEN GET IT LIBERATED TOWARDS HOME (NOT MUCH GOOD THOUGH FOR A YOUNSTER THAT MAY HAVE BEEN LOST OFF THE LOFT)BUT THESE IDEA,S MAY BE WORTH A TRY TO SAVE HAVING THE BIRD IN A BOX FOR SOME TIME.
kev01293 Posted July 19, 2006 Author Report Posted July 19, 2006 heard bad things about amtrak but it may be my only choice, i would be very grateful if a fancier in prestatyn could look after my yb til tomorrow when i can get it collected?
