Chris Little Posted July 16, 2010 Report Posted July 16, 2010 Got our first one this afternoon Over the moon to see the old boy back, a little thin and tired with both rubbers still on. Hope more work back for the many other unfortunate fanciers
frank-123 Posted July 16, 2010 Author Report Posted July 16, 2010 nice to see young Jim Meikle well up in the result aye tam and his second bird sadly just missed out by a few yards great performance
Pego Posted July 17, 2010 Report Posted July 17, 2010 Got our 1st bird from Bourges noon today. Glad to get him as he already has 3 snfc prizes.
Guest IB Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 They sure pick their days. Not the nicest of weather here today, but my Bourges candidate (libbed 11th July at 0530) arrived home this afternoon, she's a living skeleton, but otherwise unhurt. Bourges sure feels to me as if it was weeks ago , really surprised it was 'only' 11 days ago. Puzzled as to where she's been, there's been no racing into Scotland unless she has tried to come down the road with the Clermont birds libbed 0630 17 July?
Delboy Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Good to get them back Ian, you ve done well this year in SNFC .Keep plugging away

Bodys been gan off her since she got back and now its gettin tae the critical stage. Looks like she will prob die frae the exersion. Have you tried syringing a very strong glucose solution down her? It worked on one of my hens who also had to be hand fed and syringed for a few days as she hadn't the strength (or inclination) - but she did pull round and I'm sure it was the glucose that really helped
robbiedoo. Posted August 6, 2010 Report Posted August 6, 2010 must be some making there way home from the channel 1 of my club mate got his doo from clermount home at supper time tonight

Syringe glucose with cytacon B12 down its throat. This should give it a lift. In the old days we used to give them milk and sugar on return from the distance races. Hope she pulls through
