greenlands Posted July 28, 2012 Report Posted July 28, 2012 Seems rather dear for carriage,which website are you getting them from ? http://www.avenueag.co.uk/ProductGrp/0022000e000900030001 http://agricultural.spaldings.co.uk/Shop/ProductDetails.aspx?CatalogID=18397 http://www.apm-supplies.co.uk/bird-scaring-rockets-p-983.html http://www.hisltd.co.uk/Portek-Bird-Scaring-Rockets.html£5:95 here ? Portek have a good reputation.I have never used them but I can guarantee that Percy does not like loud bangs.Wish our Fed would buy some,would be very useful for our first two young bird races which are in Peregrine Country.

Guest bluemorning Posted July 28, 2012 Report Posted July 28, 2012 let off before birds go out,what happens when percy drifts in once birds are flying. sam may be a better but but quite expensive.

chrissyboy1 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Posted July 31, 2012 The Chapelhall van used to use before releasing the birds from there training flights with great effect. Possible we should release before each liberation? Would possible prevent initial attack.Got to try something to protect the pigeons.
Guest alangee Posted August 1, 2012 Report Posted August 1, 2012 http://www.hisltd.co.uk/Portek-Bird-Scaring-Rockets.html i got them here. ordered online and very promp delivery for £5 better ordering a few boxes to save carriage took two days. atbalan
Guest IB Posted August 1, 2012 Report Posted August 1, 2012 The Chapelhall van used to use before releasing the birds from there training flights with great effect. Possible we should release before each liberation? Would possible prevent initial attack.Got to try something to protect the pigeons. IMO should be normal part of transporter equipment. Think Lanarkshire were the first to pilot it a few years back. Criticism loud and IMO unjustified on their first (and last?) attempt, they were said to have set off the rockets too close to transporter and scared the pigeons? Easy to make a mistake first time you try anything new, IMO should have continued with it, as well as flashing red? lights on transporter roof and playing eagle owl recording over loud-speaker system.
THE FIFER Posted August 1, 2012 Report Posted August 1, 2012 Also would have to make sure birds liberated before those with rockets are well clear,
