Right guys what's the best way to build a base for a doocot I got my keys to my new house and went down to the bottom of the garden were it was all tarpallin with would chips over it so I pulled it up and found out that it was alreaddy slabbed so that's a bonus I was thinking just concrete blocks but want to make it the best I possibly can any tips ?

Just realised the house I'm buying has a close to get to the back garden and I'm not sure I'm my lofts will get through it anyone know the standard size of a close on a council built house hahahahh

where did you move to george?

and if i was you mate if you want to concentrate on inland racing for a couple of years i would fly roundabout if you have the room

as you need to weed out the poor hens you have so they must be raced

then as you move to compete at the distance fly natural system

I have just completed reading all the posts on this subject and found it most interesting and my only tuppence worth would be to advise you to leave the birds to pair up themselves and race natural. It is a far superior system than any other.

Thanks very much for you reply mate

I only wish for you to avoid the many pitfalls when racing, however, methods are only a small part in being a successfull fancier.
