its a parasitic bacteria is it not ?

burning wont cure the birds may prevent to a certain extent

suppose i can give a rough idea to the cause and cocci is distinguished by wet droppings , however it could be a number of things like previous posting moving birds pairing up , screening your birds droppings would be the next step rather than running for a medicine bottle

cocci is a bacteria that is natural and is present in the bowel low levels are passed through the birds but during infections these bacterias can multiplty due to abnormal behaviour in the gut , if you feeding a high percentage or 100% wheat / barley this can also cause wet droppings

sounds like cocci

was it plain and self raising ? ;D ;D ;D ;D

happy birthday Gemma hope you have a great day

Van Loons will do up to about 420 miles and are a good honest pigeon so i'd say sprint to middle distance John Williamson of Bolton and Williamson ( of Bridlington ) told me they could do 500 miles but not in a head wind

bit late if indeed she has been sacked

hope you get these guys and i hope the police get them banged to rights

i wouldnt use any medicines a vet didnt prescribe

a pigeon loft is not public property

had mine shiped out to me direct from geraldy

i hope you checked your wallet straight after you woke up to see the racing moths still intact , theres those that help themselves when your incapacitated

hope they get these caught they should get the stills up someone will know who they are

i paid £800 a few years ago

must be a fancier in the area that knew your grandad that can vouch for his state of mind or even a neighbour ? and surely there must be a fancier in your area that would be willing to look after the birds as 3 birds wouldnt take much seeing to i hope all goes well for you in the future all the best . Mark

just thought micheal J Burden has one hes selling as given birds up

i have the roof top box on my suzuki wagon r+ , means you dont need a big estate car and much cheaper on petrol

well theres many schools of thought on this subject , one is some racers that have won wont breed a sausage and some breeders of winners wont race , so by racing the birds out could leave you with racers with a few winner but no breeders of winners , but then theres the best catogory racers that have won that also breed winners , so i would personaly breed a full round and eliminate from the ybs performances as yearlings , so basicaly if not made it as ybs swap pairs round if no winners by 3rd year remove

i managed to find it twice result ;D ;D ;D ;D

good post Jimmy

well i only train before racing and if going stale or if not racing that week but id give a few inland races prior to race then straight in but at that distance i would only fly 3 year olds but if you can single up every week 30 miles twice a week

single them up get them used to flying on there own
