jimmy white

hi old guy not sure of the answer to that but should imagine the white racer would be the best flier , then there are white tumblers ,tiplers etc that can stay on the wing for hours , i recently heard a chap flying his white german beauty homers well around the loft ,, i should imagine white fantails would be at the bottom of the list ,,, if its the best white racer you mean,, there are various breeds and just like normal colours some good ,,some bad

yes i agree,, maybe ask,, something ive always wondered about,,, does a pigeon fly faster the first mile of its race ,,,or faster on the last mile of its race

is dave barkel related to jack barkel?? think both originated from that area

danger woman on the lose ;D ;D ;D [stay beside me gangster ;D ;D ;D]

yes this is a very good way for your condition ,,,,,,i think it was keith mott who actualy just raced them to boxes placed along the wall, there are ways and means wish you success which ever way you decide

;D ;D ;D ;D id win the knobbly knees contest ;D ;D ;D should be good fun ;D ;D

i agree dodgeon be it moderator or member [were all members] i have voted for a two week ban ,, but would follow that up with a full time ban ,if not adhered too ,,lifes too short to argue ,,and pigeons will keep you going for ages so it really would be nice to have a happy peacefull forum about pigeons

keep looking at the for sale posts , might get them very cheap [or cheaper ] anyway hope something turns up for you, sometimes a bit of luck comes along unexpectantly

i hope things go well tommy ,, it would be great to keep the allotments ,, these are some of the things missing nowadays

trust vic ;D ;D ;D ;D good one ;D [old dad used to use a logarithims book, paper and pencil , up all night doing velocities ,,,,,,well thats what he said anyway ;D ;D ;D

a cracking sire anyway :) really looks the part

I HAVE WON WITH PIGEONS ALL SHAPES AND SIZES ,, ITS THE INSIDE THAT COUNTS ,,NOT THE OUTSIDE BUT IT IS LOVELY TO SEE A WINNING PIGEON HANDLING AND LOOKING A DREAM

;D THATS THE REALLY HARD BIT ;D ;D ;D

YES ,, WELL DONE KENNY , BANG ON [WONDER HOW MANY MORE GOT IT ;D]

GOOD ONE VIC ;D ;D ;D JUST SHOWS YOU THERES A LOT OF BRAINY FANCIERS ON THE FORUM ;D ;D ;D GREAT FLIERS ETC [MY MODS POSITION WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO SAY MORE, AS I HAVE TO TRY MY BEST TO ADHERE TO THE CODE OF CONDUCT ;D ;D ;D] THE PEN IS MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD ;D ;D ;D

what a great offer jason ,, im sure someone will benefit from these

yes the birds really enjoy lettuce, often with a little salt on,, but green cabbage contains more iron than lettuce,,,,,,my old dad used to hang one up with the roots and earth still on ,, they loved it ;D

when you say ,",healthy pigeons" probably not in my opinion ,,,,,,but i often wonder if it helps birds if theve had a hard time ,i,e been out for a while and run down, especialy yb,s... or ob,s feeding youngsters,, at least the thing is with johnsons iron tonic , what is not used will pass through,,, so wonder what forum thoughts on , on this one an iron tonic for humans is usualy for anem,,,anemi,,, anae ,,,bloodlessness ;D ;D ;D

then there must be more caught out :-/

if you have,, you have them over a barrel

well done dodgeon ;D ;D ;D first post new year ;D ;D ;D all the very best ;D ;D ;D

cheers ch pd ,, really kind thought of you ,,,,wish yourself and all the forum a happy healthy great new year

wheatgerm oil will help or zinc and selenium [but im afraid it doesnt help me ;D]

my father ,,, and charlie wooff

i think these are the most difficult questions regarding good fanciers , there have been so many " greats" over the years [inc the ones on the poll] one of my great fliers and good freinds, are the wooff family , charlie, russel from new ollerton, and les from staindrop , darlington ,, these fanciers over decades have been top fed winners etc midland nat winners etc ,les won the louella car a few years ago , charlie and russel ,[well over 70 now,,,again top fed winners 2007, winning £8,800 ] least mentioned as they dont have books videos etc , just ordinary down to earth ,honest great pigeon men ,,,to me join they ranks of the" greats"
