Free Birds Due To Reassessing Requirements

[sapper756]

Now that most of us are at the end of the 2010 season and considering our options for the forth coming 2011 season, some of us will be looking at the birds we currently have, and deciding to cut back or get rid of some birds we no longer need. Would it not be good to offer free of charge any birds that may be of use to others (not birds we know are of no use) so, please feel free to post such birds up on this thread, and hopefully someone may benefit from our offerhttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif JMO,

i would not bother if there no good for our lofts why give them to someone else!

breed them some youngbirds off the birds you are keeping then give them away freely

I agree that birds fanciers class as "not good enough" should not be passed onto to others, but it is not always the case, when someone is looking to cut back on numbers, introduce new stock, it is these circumstances that I am referring to, that the fancier may have a bird that he.she believes, may be of some benefit to some one elsehttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif Just because a bird does not have a price tag on it,s head, does not mean that it is no goodhttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif there are plenty of genuine fanciers out there, who are only too happy to help others, this may include the offer of free birds they havehttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif JMO

Totally agree mate. I just put up 6 for free and looking more like 10 I will be giving. These birds are very good birds and I paid good money for one or two. I just have too many of the same blood now so cutting back as I am getting new blood in to race n cross. Ones I put up are only really for showing in my loft at the moment. But they would grace many good lofts.. Jmo

not doubting your honest good intentions

but are you doing a novice a favour giving him/her birds you never bred winners from ???

[Roland]

Don't seem to recall many birds breeding winners being given away Frank. Like that 'Goldern Pair'.

But the 'Blood' lines, and different management / systems often produce good winning birds.

Indeed a cock bird - never done piddlly dip - brother to a winner, wether a hen of cock often is the better breeder.

[Roland]

Indeed further I say not many sale them.

Even the studs buy 'Related' birds to sale the youngsters off.

with the losses this year some fanciers could be looking for a couple of pairs to float eggs under or use as feeders without breeding off them, a good idea Sapper saves putting them in the ground.
