Re: When you get a new buzz

Yes i think so Buster, with my youngsters in Olr. And also the pair of youngsters from Blizard king Kittle /Porsch 911 along with The New National / Olimpic Jules family.

Re: Pedigrees

I only buy from club or Fed sales, and in recent years, there are a lot of birds without pedigrees, and so you are buying on the fanciers name only.

Re: Selection Criteria

Pigeon racing in it's self, selects the birds, especially if you race to 500+miles, I myself don't have a large team, due to every bird being raced to the distance. That's why the farm yards have plenty of pigeons going about them, plus what we lose to the B.O.P. This works for me, and keeps pigeon ...

Why did Devo and George, want thier account closed, why not just stop posting, asking for the account to be closed, seems a bit dramatic to me.

Re: QUESTION

Interesting topic. I think it depends a bit on where you are. Here in Australia the losses are often heavy. It's all well and good to be Gung Ho, and send 'em all and sort 'em out, but that can mean nothing to carry on with at season's end. I am always willing to hold a handful back. Last year I ke...

Re: Barley.

So there you go. I will not have it on the place. I think it is pig food. I have a good mate who swears by it. Last season I won a race, and he won a race. Reason?
