Bumped The Wires

[Craig Forsyth]

Hey everyone just looking for a little bit of advice. I was waiting for the birds to return from training in Aberdeen this morning, and as perusal they were right on time but when invited them in my grizzle cock sat out and I couldn't get him in but I noticed he wasn't standing and was lying on the shed roof. Later on when he came in and I was checking him turns out he's hut the wires I think and tore a patch of his breast feathers off and slightly cut the very top of his leg. In the loft now unless walking about he will choose to lie down. Just wondering if he will be okay to race on Friday?

 

Thanks in advance craig

Craig, you are quite correct to ask when you are in doubt. Do you have anyone local who could mentor you?

Thanks and yeah I'll take it up to my club on Friday and get someone to have a look over him thanks:)

Best left at home Craig. Get him fit and put him into the come back race from Arniston the week after Leicester at the end of June. Good luck with him.

Good idea......but for the pigeons sake don't let anyone talk you into sending him, just bring him home again.

Hi Craig

If he can walk means his leg is not broken, but you will see by Friday

where he was hit will turn black and blue. This is internal damage and

will take time to heal. As other people has said do not send him

If you allow you birds free liberty he will tell you when he is

ready

Cheers and ATB

Yeah that' sounds like a good plan will give him time to recover then if he's okay I'll get him into the come back race thanks:)

If you send this bird on Friday you can be assured you will not see him again as Alec has said

He will tell you when he is ready.

Thanks homer49 and okay I'll see what he's like in the morning and if the area doesn't turn out bruised does this mean that there no internal damage? And yeah I'll just let him go about the loft until I see that he's okay

Hi

Where he was hit will turn black and blue, but by

internal damage I don't mean his liver or kidneys

only superficial damage to blood vessels, he will heal

very quickie and given rest will hopefully reward you

for your effort

I have a cock going to this weeks race. Hit wires 6 weeks ago but recovered pretty quickly I was waiting for his wounds to heal fully. He done a 50 training toss yesterday and that made my mind up.

Always best to ask don't let negative comments put you off asking again.

Best of luck with your racing and enjoy.
