RINGS and YONUG birds

Hi All, could you help me out with this. If I was to get young birds off another breeder and it has their RING 2014 on the bird could I still fly this bird under my name within my club or can I only fly birds breed by me.
As you can tell I am totaly new to this   

you can transfer the ring to your name via rpra for gb rings.

Hi what is GB rings ????
Thanks,

Tony

rings that begin gb14 etc as some other clubs will have their own prefix like nehu , ihu su etc.

hi tony, yes you can race pigeons with other peoples rings on, as long as you transfer them over into your own name.........if you are a member of a club you will have a loft number, fill a transfer form in with all your details and post it off to the rpra with a postal order for £2.

if you are not in a club you can apply to the rpra to become an individual member which costs approx. £10 for the year, just fill in the transfer form as normal and post it off.......

hope this helps.

you usually get a membership card from the club sec every year tony, if you are a new member it may take a bit of time to sort it out but just ask your club sec when you see him, or give him a ring and ask him about it.........tell him your wanting to transfer some ybs to race, and you need a loft number.
