Free birds

Don’t no if any of the members or their friends would be interested I am over stocked again as usual and have some very well bred syndicate loft birds manly cocks to move all grandchildren of the main pigeons as I am only racing from around 200 miles this season as no channel racing I need to bring in some sprinters

sounds like quite a few fanciers are planning on doing the same mark, good luck in finding new homes for them ......and good to have you back on the forum .

Hope they find a genuine new home and not seen advertised later for sale.

Know the feeling.

Regards.

Goodluck mark. Better putting a price on them as when free nobody wants them . Put 200 quid on them.and they might go haha . Been there a few times that's why I don't give many away free now , then again I don't sell either . Goodluck

i put a few grizzles free when chap come for them i put 4 blue checkers with them

I no everyone is in the same boat with to many birds it’s my fault as I just like them and they seem to stay forever and it makes it worse as no channel racing in the future not paying a vet to tell me my birds are all ok my new year resolution is to come down to nest box accommodation

so will you be concentrating on inland racing this coming season mark ......yes this avian flu seems to have been elevated from previous years to the point fanciers have to jump through hoops to race the channel, wont be long until inland racing will go the same way .....

very strange when you consider there has never been a case of a racing pigeon having avian/bird flu in the uk eh

Pigeon curse that's your problem etc Mark I'm   So never feel alone type of thing I even know a bloke, who actually hasn't raced for a few years now down here & if he lost like he mentioned here recently one a year through some unknown reason factor, he would still have birds in his loft       till around the year 2,150 odd .

Yes dave will concentrate on sprint racing with the club and mccfc as they go out to 218 miles to me this past season racing with middle and long distance birds I’ve been a constant 4/5 minutes off the pace against pure sprint birds

yes mark with all this avian flu caper going on i think inland/sprint racing is the way to go.......thats until the powers that be turn their attentions to registering and using vets for that too .

they have implemented it with distance racing, only a matter of time until its the same for inland racing ........and then for those who dont even race but keep them as pets .

or until powers that be are thrown out

nice offer mark,fair shout
