yes your quite right dovescot,, the forum is for all with or keen on pigeons, whether it be fancy ,show or racer or any type pigeon ,, in fact some of the fancy ones , i take a liking to myself but i dont know about policeing sales , i suppose it would be up to the members of the forum , but we try and keep an eye on things if poss. leave wee chickadee alone ;D ;D ;D if shes happy , thatswhat counts ;D ;D ;D

never have w hood cocks hungry ,,,but different feeding for different racing

;D ;D ;D i think if we had less work load [with the fanciers help ] we could possibly do this, but not sure all members would agree to be quite honest if fanciers would adhere to weby,s post above ,,we would have no bother ,,,,but anyone having bother report it to mods or [was going to say rockers ;D] webmaster

keep in touch with the forum , youll see how kind fanciers are :) great on you bewted ,,also an offer myself a pair or two,,but wait till next year ,, all the best with your birds ,best of luck to you

i have used babies powdered milk in rearing yb,s [didn't use it this year as had illness in family and they had to take a backseat] but have reared beautiful ybs on this,, couple of tablespoons to a drinker , also, birds returning after a hard race , have found half milk half warm water beneficial to recovery

there have been many great fanciers through the years from all over the uk , i dont think anyone can claim to be the best ,,,,,but there certainly have been and still are, fanciers of the highest of standards over many years,,,but their getting lesser

thats the pigeon b,g,l ,,,, a buzzard usually scavenges on dead birds , but the perigrine, sparrowhawk goshawk [which are plentyfull] are deadly

may i also reiterate my first posting on the problem in 1995 [how they have multiplied ,,,,,,,when does it stop????]

may i just reiterate my second post on raptors [how must they have multiplied since then]

and the same here debbie ,, but the rspb watch this as prooved b4 on my e mail to them ,,,,it was a private email to them from me ,,,yet the answer had pigeon basics on it????

think i will do that bart ,, when i cool down a bit

every one on the site should make small [some a large ;D] donation ,, the service on pb is second to none, we all get it free and should be very gratefull ,

Bart,, this is already on the for sale site ,,its been there all along , so when some of these posts are removed , is because members are not adhering to the the webmasters posting

i entirely agree with you bewted ,, but it must be remembered that it is just a few that are spoiling it,, maybe most of the decent members should speak out a bit more , i know its difficult as the decent members really bypass these stupid posts [im quite sure the members that are the cause of this know this ] but most of the members agree with you , including me,,and according to my pm,s theres a post for eveything, and everything in its post lets try our best to make it the best as it allways has been

all info is on this site,, if members read " b4 selling read this" by webmaster,,,,,very very simple ,, not adhered to, by some members ,,,,,,so please read this

at least eating,, glad to be back,, what an ordeal, ,,again my thanks to Jackie for saving this birds life ,,,,,no need to say,, what i think of the rspb and the hawk problem,,,,,,untill i cool down >

bird in shock

window it hit petrified by hawk

mess of pigeon

damage caused by hawk,,,,,how do you explain to a young lad that gifted you the bird,, this has happened ,,,,,,,,fuming >

this is mainly a thankyou to" Jackie" , Jackie is a gamekeepers wife , who tended, fed and watered one of young westies fav birds which was badly injured, this lady went to the bother of phoning me [a few times ,as she was worried the bird wouldn't survive] but off course being a gamekeepers wife ,new well how to tend to it , the bird was attacked by a hawk and flew straight against the window,,pics will follow,,[shocking pics] i released 20 birds at ,between stow and Galashiels , 13 home 3 injured [one had to be put down due to breaking both legs and a badly half eaten back, by a hawk,no way could i let this suffer,in the condition it was in [these birds had flown this every day for a week beating me home] Jackie was telling me of the trouble they have with hawks,with the young pheasants ,grouse etc , in fact one flew straight in her chicken coup and carried away a young chick, she was telling me also that her husband [gamekeeper ] cannot do a thing [AS DECENT LAW ABIDING CITIZENS], and has repeatedly tried to explain his case to the rspb, and to be honest has just had ridiculous answers from them,[as we have] if he does anything about the situation, he risks loosing his house [where he has a lovely young family] his job, and would then have a criminal record ,she added most of the hawks are ringed ,either released by the rspb or rung in the nest , i find this utterly shocking , that the rspb think more of their precious hawks, than of a beautifull ,decent hard working family [who are nature lovers themselves] in a nut shell THEY PUT HAWKS BEFORE HUMANS,,,THIS CANNOT BE RIGHT,UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES however i wish to thank jackie and family for so kindly tending to my pigeon in the kindest manner possible ,far kinder than the rspb who are killing off all the songbirds ,causing gamekeepers to become redundant [no grouse no work]and ending the pigeon sport by repeatedly letting these birds multiply to such an extent , that its effecting all,,,,,a great big thank you to jackie and family
