In Egg! (Newbie)

In Egg! (Newbie) (1/8)

  1. Maybe Kyle Douglas on Facebook could help, he's at Whitby and helps many hundreds of strays per year get home.
  2. Cheers Tiger, I hope they cleared well coz we 7 mile along the A7 South of Hawick and it's been raining here for last 20 minutes, back to sun now.
  3. Guys could you put on here the time you liberate please, just we were hoping for a training chuck Tuesday from Carter Bar back home to Hawick and don't want to get mixed with your birds.Plus have a Fife stray in which might get a good help back up home if she can latch on.
  4. We saw a batch go over us, live on A7 7 mile southwest of Hawick they were heading towards Newcastleton/Langholm, unusual for us to see batches of birds. If you imagine an egg box that's what the hills and valleys are like, birds don't like crossing the hills so end up going down the valleys for miles before they find a way out. We were going to train as was sunny first thing, but quickly got full cloud cover and very windy. Hope the birds work their way back home. If we get any we'll report them.

  6. What a cracking offer for someone from a winning loft!
  7. I would say wires as it looks like a slice of top layers been took off, whereas if it was a hawk I would expect to see puncture wounds were the talons had grasped at the bird.

    Oldham

    Have emailed a guy in Oldham to see if he's available/able to help. Have you posted on pigeon chat as I think Jeanette their admin is from that area? Might get a quicker response.
  9. We 2nd club from Newark doing 1095. 4/8 back been raining since 12 ish!
  10. First race back in Hawick club, won't find out til tomorrow but looking good for winning club. Rubbish returns tho 6 out of 17.
  11. Just heard Scottish Borders fed up at 11.
  12. Any word on Scottish Borders Fed?
  13. I would be careful putting it out unless council have agreed, me mum had a sofa n chairs to be collected and was told to put them out before 7am, at the time she worked nites so explained she wouldn't be home before 7 so would put it in the back street (with security gates the council have keys for) before she went to work. But was told if she put it out the nite before it would be classed as fly tipping and she would be fined!

    Why?

    So far so good this year, but last year had a latebred hammered by a cock that had got in the wrong box, it was the worst I had seen, my man wanted to dispose of him but I asked for a few days to see if we could get any healing, salt water bathed and then propolis applied daily, he's now a cracking young cock looking forward to training him this year. I use propolis any time we have an injury with the birds, also on a hen that pulls her own feathers at the start of the moult each year, works a treat.
  15. The Solway Federation is looking for a driver/convoyer, information available on it's website if anyone interested.😊
