OLDYELLOW

Heres a photo of my second loft it had no birds in at the time and was listing due to old age , this was the replacement for the dowl fronted loft , unfortunately cant find the picture at the moment but one does exist and ill put in on when i can locate it

yup 38 votes so far

dint see no hawk strike , was that bird on an elastic band went three stills then back ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

ill pop up next fornight Billy

well done keep up the good work how about taking a few pictures of this bird so we can see it

be loads of skips missing there lights now ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

nice birds there

there more likely to sell with a few pictures and perhaps Auction them off ? i know you would pay far more for directs

good to see you back on Billy you must be feeling better

was it both cocks and hens or just the hens ?

cheers Albear i feel better to have 20 involved at 450 plus miles than 5 involved at 500+ miles , although yearling arent fully mature which im sure all distance fanciers worth there salt will know , it will come down mainly to managent and been able to condition for the intended race making it more intresting as racing a unknown quantity hence yearling challenge

surely better to have 20 people in at 450 mile plus than 5 in at 500 mile the poll has been started and will run for 7 days

those that are intrested please vote then the majority vote will be carried forward , rember this is a bit of fun and surely will create a few good posts pictures and discussions on the way

i also agree with you but theres thos who will be flying 560 miles that may be better flying a shorter race in the high 400's

id agree with ypres for you

with last 2 race points ashas 498 , and thunderbolts been 493 , you can see the point im making i hope anything over 500 mile could possibly be over 2 days racing so a sensible idea would to have the cap at 520 miles would it not ?

Happy birthday Just Ask Me or as some call him JAM and Jan Aarden Jamie , have a great day go treat yourselfs and make yasen a nice snowman and have a few sherberts but not too many have a great day

now thats what i call snow

we got a good dusting of snow over night enough to lay

welcome to Pigeon Basics 01Jamie01 , i hope you enjoy the site

im wanting to compete at the 510 mile thats been my intension all along however i was thinking of the flyers flying 560 miles and the likelyhood of them having a two day race would be higher so in fareness a difference of 91 miles from shortest 469 to 560 miles , so i am mearly asking for the last two distance races to see if i can get most members competing at a similar distance but by no means should others have advantage by not nominating there race point and distance and having a choice between a few races as i could easily send with the midlands national and do the same surely a unfair advantage if i did so ?

i'd have to agree to disagre

was snowing when i left

i would personaly go for young birds as you'l learn as they go along

as state everyone intrested please put your distance of longest race 2 races so in my case and Kirkys would be 420 miles and 510 miles then i can work out what distance to start from as in Rolands case would be 469 miles i think a pannel of judges is needed perhaps Rose , Frank Tasker , M J Burden , if we can get a pannel together
