thompson sam Posted October 27, 2013 Report Posted October 27, 2013 Hello my son wants to start racing pigeons next year he is 9 years old.My son has got experience with pigeons so he knows what he's getting into he used to do it with my ex for years and I used to be involved in cleaning lofts etc. He has the bug and I would like to support him in it. At the moment I'm looking for virtually everything loft boxes and birds etc.. I know it's a expensive game so I'm looking for anything for free or as cheap as possible. I live in the birmingham area and help would be appreciated Thanks xxxx

I live in the birmingham area and help would be appreciated Thanks xxxx The problem you have got getting pigeons etc from folk outside your area is the cost of carriage you ll need to pay.Im sure the pigeon fanciers in your area will be more than glad to help you out with birds and accessories, then you don't have any carriage.ATB
thompson sam Posted October 28, 2013 Author Report Posted October 28, 2013 Thanks for the offer Barry and Paulo could anyone advise the cheapest courier and how much it may cost. What birds have you got ??
Guest homestead Posted October 28, 2013 Report Posted October 28, 2013 Couriers £35-00 seems to be an average north of the border i dont know, but as suggested try and source your birds off local fanciers. You are welcome to some young birds next year its good to see some young blood come into the sport.
Guest paulrstokes Posted October 28, 2013 Report Posted October 28, 2013 find your local club, apply to join, and then you may get offers from a lot closer to home

Guest Paulo Posted October 28, 2013 Report Posted October 28, 2013 find your local club, apply to join, and then you may get offers from a lot closer to home Thats how it should work but local fliers very rarely help people as they should if in same club especially when they start winning
