  7. Hi David Welcome to Pigeon Basics , we hope you enjoy the site , whereabouts are you in Lincolnshire theres quite a few that would show you around there lofts off site and give you valuable information guess first step is you'l need to find your local pigeon club to apply for membership in order to race use this link give your details and ask for clubs in your area good luck regards Mark http://www.rpra.org/ContactUs/tabid/62/Default.aspx

  9. I have always found the staff nothing but extremely helpfull and curtious and have nothing but praise for them , they are a credit to our sport
  10. never known a hen lay three eggs its usualy another hen laying in another bowl :-/ but have on occasions noticed if they sat first egg you can end up with two days difference in the ybs as first egg is hovered over and only incubated after second egg is laid so eggs hatch roughly at same time or within a day
  11. It can happen at either end of eye laying i.e young hens first eggs or an old hen , better to have one good egg than two poor ones and single reared always look better , when was first egg laid ???? and if 2 days have passed very unlikely you'l get the second egg

  14. how many winners has it bred lol
  15. Nice birds all the best for the forth coming season
  16. if was a yearling id say that given another year to mature it could well improve with age as a two year old , imo two year olds are at there physical peak and perform better and more frequently than a yearling , as a three year old they start to slow down / pace themselves more and are more comfortable with greater distances , my 2 year old cocks will get 500 mile this year just for experience as im setting them up for 650 miles as three year olds i suppose it comes down to this if hes proven himself at 400 miles why push him further
  17. yup your loft number
  18. depends on what kind of shape he went in in the first place if werent 100% fit then would of struggled and homed , seems his recovery rate was good tho , how old is the bird ?

  25. i think most products are aimed at emptying the fanciers pocket , i look at maintaining health , im not looking for a miricale go faster potion , i've tried many products over the years and dismissed them Aviform Ultimate , fresh garlic , cider vinegar and natual naturaline and orego stim do work . but products dont replace hygene or natural vitality or natural immunity in a loft , thats down to removing weak birds good hygene and common sense and hard work I have the use of a good vet and test quite regulary as i say these products do work if they didnt i'd be the first to bin them the amount of money i'd use on treating blind alone would easily pay fer these few products
