Shepherds Show Baskets

[Guest RedWest]

Hello all,

 

As a new returnee to the fancy, I am dismayed to find that Shepherds Basket Works no longer produce show baskets. I would desperately like to buy either a couple of 6 bird or 4 bird (or a combination of both) show baskets second hand (or new if still available). I am not impressed with the current ones on the market and will be happy to pay best prices for the Shepherds ones with the liners.

 

Feel free to PM me if you have any for sale or know of anyone who does.

 

Many thanks,

 

Frank

JUST TYPE INTO GOOGLE PIGEON BASKET SALES MATE THERE SOME ON EBAY ASWELL

[Guest RedWest]

No mate, unfortunately they are all racing baskets, or aluminium show baskets. I am after the old Shepherds ones and they appear to be as rare as hens teeth. I did an extensive internet search before I even asked on here too. I thought I might stand more of a chance among fanciers on here, because everybody knows somebody with birds and there is always somebody who gives up for whatever reason, be it health or otherwise. Never mind though, I'll keep looking.

I just returned one of those, as they are not what I am looking for unfortunately.

Well lads, this is truly an amazing forum!!

 

First day of posting, one wanted post and you have managed to find me two Shepherds 6 bird show baskets already!! You know who you are and thank you so much for your help.

 

I'm not done yet though and will happily take a couple of Shepherds four bird baskets off anybody's hands that come across any for sale.

 

Great community, well done to you all and thanks for all the time you have expended to help me today!
