Altered sputnik for ets

[OLDYELLOW]

the pad is two inch from the front of the bobwires as would be too far back to clock anything

[OLDYELLOW]

 

OLD YELLOW WHY DID YOU MENTION BIRD GOING BACK ONTO PAD IT ONLY REGISTERS ONCE

 

if a bird flys back the pad reads the ring again but doesnt register it which could cost seconds or miss a bird perhaps

[PIGEON_MAN]

Whats your thoughts on this,Any trapping system where the bird is recorded before the bird becomes confined within the the trap or loft contravenes rule 241 of the RPRA.

[OLDYELLOW]

bird is within the trapping system so is confined  

[PIGEON_MAN]

bird is within the trapping system so is confined  

 

The bird could get out again so its not confined.Looks like the RV Woodcraft trap is now no good.

[tskyes]

IF I FLY TO OPEN DOORS AND HAVE MY PAD ON THE WALL I WILL SWIPE THE BIRD OVER THE PAD THEN IT IS CLOCKED IN,I WILL THEN LET THE BIRD GO TO HIS BOX BUT HE CAN FLY OUT THE LOFT IF HE WISHES SO WHY AREN`T THEY ALOUD OUT OF THE LOFT WHEN THEY HAVE BEEN CLOCKED IN THROUGH THE TRAP BUT THEY ARE ALOUD OUT WHEN CLOCKED IN THROUGH OPEN DOORS ?

my birds can get out of  standard sputnik or can get out by accident when entering / exiting loft  

[PIGEON_MAN]

Looks like we could have new problems now with the word CONFINED,for those that dont know the  piece I quoted was from the RPRA spring meeting held the other week.

THE BOBWIRES ARE AT THE BACK ON THE RV WOODCRAFT TRAP LIKE ON THE SPUTNIK AND HAS BEEN PASSED BY THE RPRA !

 

 

Thr RV Advert did say it doesn't comply with WHPU rules where as the west country one does as the bird has to go through the wires before being registered.

it seems like they change the rules whenever it suits lol can soon put tray back in bottom and remove bobs or make a new trap   but the rule was the pad was to be within the confines of the loft  or trapping system to which mine complies at the moment they've had a year already to sort this

Made mine last year but i,m concerned  a bit now about this new ruling,not sure if it is a new rule straight away,how do others  read it,it was in the BHW April 10th issue page 7 last column about half way down.

You could say that the bird was confined in your hand until you passed it over the pad.

[PIGEON_MAN]

Special Notice in this weeks BHW.regarding above,rule 241 stays the same,the opinion given by the committee at the recent meeting is in obeyance pending a full review of the rules being carried out over the next 6 months,so no problems at the moment with the traps we have.

[just ask me]

have said this before too it makes a mockery of the rules legally going by the rules this is wrong as bird not confined in loft its a mad rule best of luck with season

 

wouldn't it be easier just to have the rule saying that the pad has to with in the 4 walls of the loft i.e trapping systems and averys are loft extensions and so should not have pad in them would this rule or something worded a little better clear up any confusion

RPRA rules do not say that bird as to be confined in loft,my pads are within the 4 walls of the loft but the bird can still be clocked in without going inside the loft.
