in must club agms especially down this end it will never go through at the first meeting

come again? what has this got to do with how i like to handle my birds on basketing night?

Staff pound for pound are smart, strong and full of energy, and very pain resistant, will kill anything at will

Jim those van limpt de prut, wasnt he a good friend of de klak, im lead to believe he has very good sprinters!

if i can be any help, i live in east london not to far from stratford, however the birds are now in moulting condition

its difficult to explain, but the best expression would be like a balloon, light but blown up.But what you gotta realise the prepartion from 300-400 miles would be different to 60 miles to 250, i race 70-250miles and this is what i like to see

i feed a base mix all yr round and has a very high protein content, they moult out lovely aswell

Ive often heard tho old wives tale, that Joe bloggs had a tippler cross to go out and win the LNRC of Thurso, xxxx amount of years ago, but i myself have gone round blackpool and thought i might just take a pair of them home or at least a hen as a flirt bird, especially like the agrression of those modenas and kings

Just to add hope you dont mind but the Turbo Filmstar, is also the sire to Franks Millenium Filmstar who was 1st NRCC 4,000 plus birds, but one thing is for sure ill bet you will find winners in every generation of the pedigree

bang on u also dont become top prize winner in club by having a gd old bird season

reduction £30, whoever shall buy would have a bargain

Id consider Joe connolly and son to have some of the best, your best bet would be ringing up Ronnie Bigwood, or Ian Stafford, as there thornes agents and im sure they will tell you were the best source would be

one of the main reasons why young birds are lost, there bred early december, january time, and there trained at 6months old. They might home but they dont have the same intelligance as the later bred youngsters that you breed in your 3rd rounds, as these are pushed to get into the races. A little darkness tip if you want to practice the darkness when you take them off the dark leave your lights in the loft till 10pm, all youngbird season, this way your ybs shouldnt drop a feather and should hold a full wing the whole programme!

there cracking busschaerts mate

id have to go poorly trained as i dont think the ybs are trained early enough these days, being bred early

just a shame vandenheede isnt a hen

3rd photo looks like a hen

from the first picture looks a hen lol second picture looks a cock, confused you will be!!!

this fella is still unsold, the closing date for this sale will be next friday 6am

agree

lead to believe Billy Lynch had/has some of the best of these when he moved down to Kent, and knowing Billy he would only buy out of his best pigeons!

have to say i scower the books every week and so far have hardly seen any major winning done with them, sorry to put a downer onit,

Jimmy one conversation i bring up for major losses is that most people train there young birds too late. Nowdays most people breed in December-January, but they dont train till 3 weeks before the first young bird race. Now a pigeon i do not know its ageing but they grow at an unbelieveable rate, if they say a dog is 8 years to a year i believe a pigeon would be double or even triple that. Now those later bred youngster bred in April, these ybs are pushed up in the air, and are forced to go through the paces, so by end of July they can get into the first young bird races at around 12 -14 weeks old, while those bred in decemeber are now 6 months old before they are being trained, when in fact they should have been trained around march time, but because everyone concentrates on there ob racing the early bred young birds are given the backseat, untill the old bird racing comes to a close. just my personal opinion and have personally found that through the years ive kept onto my later rounds then the 1st round, its just like a 40 yr old man with no education, being chucked into school, the saying old dog dnt learn new tricks is a fallicy, but old dogs find it harder to learn new tricks is absolutely TRUE!

i made my own of these boxes, 2 cocks to 1 hen the cocks raced well on the system

may sound silly but have you checked the area near her *expletive removed*, if there is any dropping stuck ect, ive had this in past and treated with baycox and it cleared up, as i believed it to be cocci
