Buying in new stock.....?

are any of our members buying in or getting in any new stock for this coming breeding season, im not because the new stock i got to breed this seasons ybs wasnt tested so for this year i dont need to..........whos buying in and if so what will they be......

Getting back my lambrechts that I lent last year, I bought em and didn't breed of them due to personal circumstances, The guy that borrowed them has bred youngsters to win 5x 1st clubs plus many other positions in club and fed, he won young bird averages, young bird channel race, the best season he's ever had. he borrowed 6 pair.

bet youll be glad to get those back pete, bet you cant wait to get them on ybs......

yeh got to have a trip to derby soon, they are of direct cyril lambrechts, bought em of a guy in burnley, he packed up with pigeon lung, but prior to that won EVERY club race old and young bird,for 3 years except 1 y/bird race. like I say not raced for the last 2 years first had a marriage breakdown, then a sudden death of my brother knocked me back a bit, but theres always next year

hope they breed the goods for you then pete, no doubt they will..............

i all ready have 14 pair of stock birds wont need anymore for allong time and they a giving me the goods so wont be chaging mabe 5 pair will be put to diverant hens or cock but i have more than enough if it aint broke dont touch

last season i got 2 cocks and 1 hen from navigator he packed in to go work in poland
but there all 9 and 10 years old but the 2 cocks have flown pau and been timed in and the hen got 8th open bordeaux in the BBC . i got 5 yb out of them so can,t wait to try them next season there breeding is krauths .

been offered 2 pairs of janssens if a want them but dont really need them , plus is 14 birds in a 7 x 5 shed too many......??? no aviery yet but hoping to build one before winter.

14 birds in a 7x5 loft is ample david i would not put in any more in
but if you put a avairy on they will spend most of the time out side
like mine do they love to sit out with the wind blowing and also you can put a bath
in there as well with out getting the loft wet . have the janssens bred any thing decent
if so why not try them they can be a good cross in to your own family of birds .

Hi David I am always buying new stock, I just cant help myself, I am always looking for the wonder pair, so Yes Im getting new stock, and I will be breeding 150 plus babies this year so need a few more stock birds.

hi kev, thanks for the advise....if i can get the aviery done over the next few weeks it would help maybe eh ? im thinking of a 6 x 6 aviery

the janssens are last years (09) latebreds which have never bred but are off birds which scored well in midlands national.

I have two new stockbirds a parot and a duck if it gets lost it can ask it way home and if it gets tired it can swim home ideal for our islands

Last year I put a map in bottom of the basket so they could find there way home but I made a big mistake I didnt teach them to read
