Re: Is this to clean
I don't think it matters. I used to clean out everyday. Now I'm on deep litter and have been for the last 7 years. The health of the birds is EXACTLY the same. I look back at all the hours I wasted scraping out. I think it's the fanciers who feel better about a clean loft, the birds don't care ...

Re: What can WE change.
3.EXTREME TEMPERATURES
4. FOUR G and 5G
5.SOLAR PANELS
6. SUN SPOT ACTIVITY.
Here's my views. If something is thought to be a cause of YB losses, or a cause of homing ability it can't be used conveniently as a cause/excuse when birds fail to return. The sport has for years had old wife's tails, and ...

Re: Aviform
Being in the colonies I'm not familiar with these products.
It all looks very good, are they popular in the old country?
Aviform Liquid Magic was the very first product launched by Aviform back in 1977. It was a highly popular, classic bird supplement formulated primarily with molasses as its ...

Re: What can WE change.
So shall we move on to discuss the problem of CLASHING now.
Does anyone have any ideas on how we can prevent this.
The problem has been around for a long time but even with technology it still seems to affect our y.bird racing.
It seems that with birds going North to South and vice versa and ...

Re: How do we know
@devo yes absolutely, I understand people don't like to spend big or have had bad experiences buying paper birds, but just because the bird doesn't produce great birds straight away doesn't mean the birds no good, often it's the bird they pair it with or simply not understanding that lots of great ...

Re: How important is this.
Been saying this since i started the sport. van den bulck is absolute peak for me.
Well Leon there is not a lot of families to choose from really. Here in the UK when a family starts Winning a lot of fanciers ditch their present team and jump on the band waggon. I'll guess well over 75% will be ...

Re: What can WE change.
Therein lies the key Albert. As King says y.bird racing should be about the education, not about the winning.
Maybe rather than stop racing for a year we could just stop y.bird racing. But like Danny there are a lot of y.bird specialists that contribute to the sport nowadays and I feel that more ...

Re: What can WE change.
