Guest bakes Posted July 18, 2009 Report Posted July 18, 2009 wish you the best of look willow with your yb brillent to have a few more ladies coming into the fancie i started up not so long ago my partner loves going into my loft giving my birds a fuss she dont no yet but i bought her 3 ybs from friend that im going to pick up tuesday plus i bought her a nice red yb from a fellow fancier off this forum cant wait to i get the birds in for her and see her face she been asking me for a while now since i started up with racing pigeons if i could buy her a few birds that she could race will be nice when i get my youngbirds fully trained up for the first races just got a feeling now she going to wipe my butt when she got her own birds but all good fun i enjoy my birds and my partner enjoy them. all the best bakes.
willow Posted July 18, 2009 Author Report Posted July 18, 2009 Thank you Bakes and good luck to your wife also , my baby is a Leo her star sign .She will be 1year old next Sunday and her name is willow and only has 14 nest flights just now , so i am pleased she got back from Ypres , I think there is a lot of bickering amoung the pigeon men , so maybe a few ladies will bring the sport a good name .And rembrand , im a united supporter also ! So boys or men . i will keep you posted on my willow as if she gets home , i think im onto a winner so watch out !

Babybird Posted July 18, 2009 Report Posted July 18, 2009 Welcome to the site Willow, glad to have another chick on board
willow Posted July 18, 2009 Author Report Posted July 18, 2009 Yeah too right,us birds have to stick together ! Do you have any at the race ?
willow Posted July 18, 2009 Author Report Posted July 18, 2009 Thanks Don, Canna concentrate right now,I'm waiting on ma bairn,speak later on.
willow Posted July 19, 2009 Author Report Posted July 19, 2009 Afternoon , had to have a sleep , i was so tired from staying awake during the night ,my baby is not back yet , but then again i don't think there are a lot of birds back at the moment ,it's a clear sky but a bit windy so she should have no problem getting here now .It is good that birds are back , my friend has one back think he said it was 3.40 pm but i was sleeping and his other cocks not back , so ma wee wumen can still make it ,i will keep you all posted whenever she gets here come rain or shine .Lets hope she's not been eaten by those terrible hawks !
elliedee Posted July 19, 2009 Report Posted July 19, 2009 Hi Ya Willow Welcome to the site. Hope ur baby gets back ok. I have a few babies they have flown twice now from Pontefract. Didn't do too good first race but all came back. Yesterday I came 10th so was chuffed to pieces. and all my babies came back. Nice too see another Lady in the game. Welcome to pb and goodluck with ur babes Ellie
willow Posted July 19, 2009 Author Report Posted July 19, 2009 Clockman , he has 2 home 2 away times ,15.35 and 17.30 .still no baby home yet .
OLDYELLOW Posted July 19, 2009 Report Posted July 19, 2009 welcome to pigeon basics , i hope you get your bird back
willow Posted July 19, 2009 Author Report Posted July 19, 2009 Thankyou , so do i oldyellow , but if i don't it won't put me off , there is always next season .you live and learn to get the best pigeon's .Willow
willow Posted July 20, 2009 Author Report Posted July 20, 2009 Well done to all who got a pigeon back , my baby willow is still not here , but there are a lot of experienced pigeons i hear are also not back , so i live in hope of her return .I had my first liberation tonight as i let out 4 young birds near my house out so i was very brave considering ive never touch a bird yet .Glad it was only 4 and not a basket full flapping about in my car . What i have to endure to show enthusiasm ,at least they got home ok so that was a bonus .Again congrates to all birds back . Willow
