Novice Posted January 19, 2015 Report Posted January 19, 2015 I bought 3 scrapers and some wormer---easifen capsules -buy one get another half price. I prefer to use capsules.I had other items on my list but could not be bothered trying to navigate through a crowd half of whom were producing hydrogen sulphide like it was going out of fashion.

white logan Posted January 19, 2015 Report Posted January 19, 2015 I bought three birds ,two from VEN lofts and one from a friend of VEN I was wanting another yellow hen but there was not any upto the markI would not buy any of the tonics/medication from there as I believe it is all crap and would sooner buy it from the local Vet
andy Burgess Posted January 19, 2015 Author Report Posted January 19, 2015 what date did you get on the Nobilis Andy,April or May 2014 is the best date I have seen,we have recently vaccinated ours but I bought Colombovac which expires January 2015 to do them all again start of January 2015 this batch expiry date is march 2016 Tam. i have bought in the past ,same product , with a very short date left , a month maybe ? the price was around £10 cheaper with the short date. nobody more than me likes to spend as little as possible ,and get the best discount available . has taken me a year or 2 to realise , its not always about the saving though

andyyy Posted January 19, 2015 Report Posted January 19, 2015 Got myself a few new trays and few new hightop drinkers, also ended up with a pair of yellow Kirkpatricks, simply because they are yellow! Not sure they'll race
Guest thomas mcgowan Posted January 19, 2015 Report Posted January 19, 2015 I went on the Sunday,bought feeder tray and wheatgerm oil,and a pile of pocket loft books.ii really went to see the fancy pigeons and on the way into hall bumped into a friend who was showing his Pouters ,he told me he had two of his good birds stolen,straight out the pens.I've shown twice at Blackpool andrealy enjoyed it but the birds had a padlock on the pens but not this year.hopefully the culprits are caught.
