Hormoforms a good product.Not many supplements have been released to the fancy that have stood the test of time like it.Nearly 60 years :emoticon-0137-clapping:

 

Fairplay to Frazers though on their version at the price.Used some of their products and can only say good things about them :)

There were cars out in the late 50s/early 60s that aren't in production anymore-the reason being they are not as popular as the mini.The reason the Mini is still around today is because its a reliable car and consistently good quality.

 

There have been pigeon products that have come and gone over the years much like some of these old cars.Hormoform has survived just like the Mini as it too is reliable and consistently good quality.

 

Because something is popular doesn't necessarily mean its good mind you and whats good to some may not be to others.

 

I'd never really be inclined to copy another fanciers system but when you see fanciers of yesteryear in the league of the Fear Bros,Jock Reid etc. and fanciers of today in the league of John Hodgson,John Duthie,Brian Denney etc. singing the praises of a product,it'll certainly do no harm to give it a try :)

 

Anyway I don't work for Harkers so its no concern of mines if you buy Hormoform :lol:
