1st Maddison 
2nd Maddison 
Not got full result yet but I know the first 2

We had a terrible race  still about 16 missing now from 28

Sorry about that lads but nothing is normal at the present time.

Weather unpredictable, humans mental, nothing normal.

Would not be too bad if you knew those missing were the poorest but it does not work like that.

Hope things pick up.

Regards.

Reminds me Ray of a celebrity type bloke here of sorts telling my mate at the weekend, that he had hand picked his best 30 for his 1st race from 100 miles. Missing 14 still & he is not on his own apparently by all accounts.

hope more work in for ya lads

i hope more turn up for you ray, weathers not been good ....

got a few back and few reported now . Will be about 12 missing..took them to get checked and worms caused the problem..treating them now

Nothing more debilitating than worms in excess.

Hope matters work out lads, maybe not a good idea to race next week, cannot recover in a couple of days if the problem is bad, always another day.

Regards.

my sprinters are going ..it is a 24 treatment so should be ok . Apparently it gives them a lift ..160 mile race . That team has been exercising well this last few days . It will give me an indication as well... the last 2 races where very hard races as well so that didn't help..

nasty things worms, have heard many fanciers saying they dont have them, but have they treated with the right "medication"

first time i treated mine properly it was like an explosion in a spaghetti factory , big piles of worms on the perches and nest boxes, plus it needs to kill the worm eggs still inside the bird .........

good luck ray, i hope they are soon back on form .

Worms a been g problem for me have to treat often don't no the reason as birds don't peck in the garden much

Mine are on the ground or flying. Sprinkle diatamaceous earth on loft floor once every 2 weeks or so. No worms no bugs.

At a moot, John Tranter gave a great cure, which has the same effect.
Can't recall the name as such at the moment.

He asked a nurse who told him, 'Go to the Chemist and buy ********* It will come to me.

Maybe just go into a chemist and ask. Far, far cheaper, and does the same job.

Apple cider vinegar. Worked on dogs years back.

moxidectin kills all bloodsuckers and worms also air sac mite good stuff easy on the pigeons to unlike some wormers like fenbenzadole ...repeat 2 weeks later jobs a good un

All treated now so off to race tomorrow.. just a shame I didn't do it earlier. Lost some good birds I have ..
