my exchange birds

I just wanted to say thanks to DAVID, for my exchange birds which came today, they are amazing and a credit to him, If he breeds youngsters like this please can you fix the next exchange so I get Davids birds again.
They really fit in with my birds perfectly as I have just weaned mine into the new loft 2 days ago, so the timeing couldnt have been more perfect........Many thanks

thanks martyn, i think we paired up round about the same time didnt we.............and i also know you are a janssen man, so the ybs i sent are off a stock pair of janssens i bought last year.

i bred ken two the same last year and they scored for him, so i think he was happy with them.........if you still have them later in the season or if you want them now i can send the pedigrees of the parents once i photocopy them, then you can see if they would blend with your own if you still have them come breeding season next year.........

thanks martyn

top man david you are a credit to the sport

thank you alex...............

bet you will do well racing david, youve obviously got good birds

i have a few good birds alex, but it will be me who let them down if they dont do anything, my management is trial and error at the moment.......

as g says.....the amount of good birds that are in the wrong hands that have the potential to do well

just find a system someones winning with, that has similar pigeons/time and give that a go....thats what im doing

i have two systems alex, one for widowhood and another for ybs........but im still just doing it my own way.......... all i ever do is make mistakes but hopefully eventually i will get it right............

I tell you david its hard when youve never had pigeons before and everything you do your learning.....getting there slowly but somethings are a bit confusing at times.

i think with me alex i get frustrated more than anything, ive raced pigeons before altho it was over 20 years ago but i just cant seem to get things right .........i have an idea what they should be like but achieving it is another matter, and when things dont go to plan it makes me frustrated.

David it's all trial and error mate but you will get there and i will put money and my neck on the block there mate

had the cocks out every day since sunday don and today they flew alot better than they have so far, they flew high up in the sky and looked as tho they were flying fast and with purpose compared to how they were a day or so ago.........theres still a lot to do before they can go training but to say they havnt been out for 7 months they are not doing too bad .

Thanks david, I always like looking through peds so send them or email them to me., but I will race these 2 and see what happens, they certainly look the business, I love blues and have lots myself this year, I can tell they are janssens as they look the same as mine.
Just for interest our first race is this week and one of my exchange birds from last year is off, so hope he races as well as last year for me.

hi martyn, i will photocopy them and send them off to you as soon as i get time.........hope the last years yb do well for you in the race, who did you get them off last year ?
