  1. Watch BBC news today at the extraordinary claims at the amounts of birds been killed and nest destroyed , not a mention of the decimation off our song bird population , but i suppose there just not as magestic as these killers. I suppose this has come out at a time when it is said that these birds of prey should becoming of the endangered list as they are well populated . It's claimed that most birds were in the north and Scotish boarders , i suppose these game keepers are protecting there life stock and should be able to do so , as we should be able to .
  2. must be able to fit a fan system in bottom somewhere , or a airconditioning system on side at towbar end , without having a proper look at one i couldnt realy say but that one looks like its wire on front doors rather than plastic
  3. puple crystals dicky , turns blue when diluted , oldies used to use it with parishes food on return to clean them out and get them back in to condition
  4. most of the old guys still use some of the old stuff and work just as well if not better than some supliments you can get

  17. it starts with one pigeon then the bug bites ya and your hooked its better than drugs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! , you'l be racing in 5 years , if you can pm your address im sure i can put you in touch with a local club member that can help advise you regards sex of bird and what you need and perhaps get a friend for your new bird , but rember you need to get the original owner to transfer it to your name .
  18. firstly the owner has to collect or arrange collection of there birds , its a R.P.R.A rule , if they dont report them to the R.P.R.A , they will then arrange collection to them and send bird to the owner at the owners cost so will cost the owner twice as much. The pigeon will need a shelter from the eliments in a ventilated shed / loft , that is cat proof with a trap , this is so can control letting it out and in . A large aviary is not an ideal home for a pigeon all year round in U.K . As for what to build depend on what you have in mind , are you going to race or keep a few pigeons ? have a read of pigeon in my kitchen thread

  22. here goes and a good preventative measure , add a teaspoon of cinamon and a knode of grated root ginger and garlic and carrot juice in water once a month i aint had yb sickness for 8 years and you'l get shinny necks to boot as well ( even on your natural birds ). The other treatment is garden lime in a bucket of water and feed them the water from the top add the above ingredients as well.Yoghurt on the corn is good as well, 1/3of a pot of live natural yoghurt with a days feed add a citrus fruit and brewers yeast . Canker is the main cause to infection keep this down and you'l be half way to solving the battle.
  23. Good luck and i hope you have many happy times together
  24. you did what you could , and i'd like to thank you on behalf of the owner , shame was one of the unhappy endings try reading the pigeon in my kitchen thread , that story has a happy ending well the storys never ending
  25. bird was in a very bad way i did put in loft and clearly had a broken leg and hadnt eaten or drunk for a very long time , i reported it to a mr Featherstone of Filey , many thanks for you helping this pigeon .
