Exchange birds

Just thought I would say how glad I am this site does the yb exchange, for a few years now I have joined in and I must say how much I have enjoyed taking in some squeekers from someone eles loft. I try not to have birds from anyone in my loft and Im reluctant to buy from breeder byers. But the exchange birds are something I look forward to and each year I havent been disapointed as the quality the fanciers give is clear to see, I race in a difficult place so birds get it tough and do well down here to keep coming however the exchange birds havent disapointed each year and have been up to the task. I always give my best as I say other wise why bother at all.
Today I sent my 2 exchange birds to thier first race 98 miles and they are a pair of crackers the cock would go strieght into the stock loft judging by its eye but I believe in racing them so thats what they are doing, they are a real credit to TONY (Tdubz615).....I dont know much about him but fair play they havent put a foot wrong training so far so fingers crossed..and thanks.

good luck with them mate

That's great news Martyn.
Yours too mate have been doing well and have been impressed with them so far.
I will post some pics of them up soon when I get round to taking some photos.

That's good mate well done.
They have toughed it as they were so young when they came, but they have held their own mate.

what were returns like in your club martyn

Returns in our club for the past 2 weeks have been fairly good, I always get good returns from racing not like training, safety in numbers on race day plus the fact there are so many birds about the perigrines are full.

thanks martyn just wondered as i race north into bristol glad to hear things are going ok
