  1. cafeeine is a stimulant but not a band substance or a drug
  2. health will help performance , but drugs increase performance totaly different
  3. when drugs are so readily available and people wish to cheat to achieve there goals , then birds should be tested , and those that dont use drugs to enhance there performances would welcome this better to remove all doubt from those that point the finger , than to put up with rumours of the few that cant win against the top flyiers , perhaps if these fanciers spent as much time looking after there birds they would get to the top as well.
  4. when garlic is processed it looses most of its good propertys better to use fresh
  5. i very much doubt they will be a shortage of birds at Blackpool for sale they be birds from over the pond and many breed the year before with Blackpool in mind , and theres the few that breed and not race so they'll still be selling what they have.
  6. there only yours when in your loft
  7. the yellow gene i believe is a faulty gene between two colours red a white white been a lack of pigment and the yellow been a faulty pigmented red indeed yellows will bred both whites and reds the reds more chocolate but the yellow gene although not visable / dominant is carried by birds it breeds like silvers and silvery reds
  8. yup yellows would be hens and silvers also hens but reds and blue chequers be cocks
  9. better luck next time Alf
  10. how many had you sent out to go in it Alf ?
  11. fair point then just looked a bit front heavy but a full feed will do just that , be nice to see when has an empty crop , but a nice bird no doubt about it
  12. but there physical attributes are selected and not there racing abilitys , but your right most would probably race i'd like mine not so front heavy tho
  13. mine will do 500 miles on the wing show racers will do that back and fourth in a basket
  14. show racer
  15. silvers would be more likely but you may get as many yellows
  16. best not to name names but you can have a chat with your regional secatary , im sure they'll advise you
  17. I believe that every club winner should be tested this could be done easily if via the droppings members would use small crates , absorbant sheets that are used by ambulances for soaking blood up could be quite easily put underneath floor grills and after race these sheets could be tested obviously names of fancier and club would have to be written on the sheets
  18. well done Tony
  19. i believe its done by regional secatary then test sent to belgium im not 100% sure , as for costs i think R.P.R.A pick up the tab or the person who made complaint im not 100% sure , a phone call to your regional secatary will give you the right answers , i dont imagine any of the dinosaurs use forums
  20. just for Josh http://www.ehow.com/how_2102192_pine-needle-tea.html
  21. pine needles can be used as nesting material and new pine needles can be used to make tea 10 times more vitamin c in pine needles than a lemon
  22. PART P: PERFORMANCE ENHANCING 199. The Council of the R.P.R.A. shall make rules and regulations prohibiting the use of performance enhancing drugs/substances. Contravention of these rules and regulations shall entail suspension, for a minimum period of three years; or expulsion. you also need to read part g http://www.rpra.org/Portals/1/RPRA%20Rule%20Book%202008.pdf
  23. very few if any as who would want to be pointing the finger
  24. pigeons are only tested if objections are made i believe
  25. my great great garandma had a farm and local shop she used to give the kids a bucket to collect acorns for pigs to kids that wanted sweets , she'd exchange full buckets for sweets
