geordie1234 Posted February 11, 2014 Report Posted February 11, 2014 Went down my loft today to find little ratbags have been trying to set it on fire. I have youngsters in the nest and all pigeons paired up on eggs etc loft was stinking off smoke. Hopefully they don't come back and atleast let me see how the old bird season before I move back home.
Guest Gareth Rankin Posted February 11, 2014 Report Posted February 11, 2014 Sorry to have heard this George.
TheHigg Posted February 11, 2014 Report Posted February 11, 2014 sooner youre out of there the better geo
geordie1234 Posted February 11, 2014 Author Report Posted February 11, 2014 Thanks guys the police have not been informed as I had to get to work Not to much damage but it's the intent that is the worrying part.. couldn't bear thought off my pigeons getting torched alive worst nightmare
Roland Posted February 11, 2014 Report Posted February 11, 2014 I fear that they may well be back within the next three nights. Take a flask and wear long johns and a bin liner under thick jumpers and over coat.
paddymac Posted February 11, 2014 Report Posted February 11, 2014 Its disheartening and sickening to see how some people get their kicks these days, to set fire to a loft of defenceless and harmless birds which bring so much enjoyment to their owners is just beyond belief. Sorry to hear about this George I hope the evil scum that have attempted to burn your lofts are caught. I would keep my guard up though as sadly to say theres a good possibility they may return again having failed to succeed the first time. :(
bigjamie Posted February 11, 2014 Report Posted February 11, 2014 george thank god the loft and birds are ok pal
walterboswell59 Posted February 11, 2014 Report Posted February 11, 2014 soon as your out there the better george m8 can you not get a loan of a big dog for a few months

Guest Owen Posted February 11, 2014 Report Posted February 11, 2014 We pigeon people have a heck of a lot of things to put up with. It feels sometimes like we are in a battle for survival.
Kyleakin Lofts Posted February 11, 2014 Report Posted February 11, 2014 Bad news George, hope it all works out till you move home.
yeboah Posted February 11, 2014 Report Posted February 11, 2014 If it had been falcons it would have been on the scottish news tonightAnd the army would be guarding them by now Keep your head up George
gulkie Posted February 11, 2014 Report Posted February 11, 2014 Sorry to hear this George ,this seams to be the same people that areCarrying out this same act as the other lofts that were burnt, keep a Baseball bat handy ,and report it to the police.

geordie1234 Posted February 11, 2014 Author Report Posted February 11, 2014 Was hanging about down the lofts there no life at all maybe the snow is helping keep the fkrs indoors or maybe because the schools are back tomorrow. . Just really hope I manage to breed my yb team atleast before anything else god forbid happens Quick bite to eat and back down to stake out a pigeon loft what the fk has my life became

geordie1234 Posted February 11, 2014 Author Report Posted February 11, 2014 Gave up for tonight no joy in catching anyone... need to have a think on whether I'm prepared to live like this for the next six months
bigjamie Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 dont blame you for feeling that way george every time we are having a meeting about something there is always something happening down at that compound are they trying to scare people off thats wanting to move into the place very strange
walterboswell59 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 deff something going on there jamie is george the only one left in there now or is there more guys still flying from that compound
coey18 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 dont blame you for feeling that way george every time we are having a meeting about something there is always something happening down at that compound are they trying to scare people off thats wanting to move into the place very strangecan u dig a 3/4ft wide hole around your loft? if so dig a trench a few feet deep an cover it with cardboard or old carpet and some dirt, put broken bricks and sharp/spikey metal down there, if they go near ur loft, they will be hurt, unless they know its there and jump over it. might seem a bit extreme but, im sure if some1 falls down, they will flee b4 they light any fire. hope your birds stay safe mate.
bigjamie Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 no theres five members on the compound walter
