YB Exchange 2015

I a know what you mean not sure how much couriers cost or owt just thought about driving and that never really thought about courier?? I'm glad of offers as well

courriers usually cost around 35 - 40 quid (ish) but depends where from and where to.

Should anyone fancy doing an exchange with myself, i'm happy to get involved with it.

I did mention at Blackpool last year to Rene although i'm not sure he remembers

If possible i would like someone with long or even extreme distance pigeons to exchange with

Tony.

Tony the best one to talk to is Edgies on here he is all
Long distance mate
Good luck
Good luck

Cheers Don, I've sorted my exchange now with Rene

Been looking through some of the topics and just wondered how this one went and how it works sounds a good idea and did the previous one work ok

yes we had a yb exchange for a few years mark, it was very interesting, and we did get quite a few members joining........the main thing that spoilt it was courier fees, the member who got the ybs paid courier charges, it all worked out fair re cost, but I think it was the cost that killed it off.

Hi Mark yes it was a good scheme it was a chance to try one of your birds in another persons hand amd methods , as only what you thought would be a good pigeon was put in the exchange new blood at a low cost if that makes sence
Ken

maybe now it would be better to exchange 4 or 6....get value for money from couriers then...
just a thought..I DONT WANT HALs

I've got £20 for fuel if anyone will fetch um for me and on the way back nip around knackereds and grab a couple from there

would be great idea as ken says always good to try yer birds in different hands/areas 6 ybs fer £45/50 courier fee

that would be a better idea f/walker, when we did it we only did 2 ybs each, 4 or 6 would make it more worth while re courier charges........

knackered could send them over with the cricket team...its the only thing they will be bringing back

I will send a GPS chip. Implant it. Birds should be here ..eventually...

Walkers do £45 for upto 15 England...I think Canada could be a little more...but not as much as ''the boomarangs''

GPS chip would not work really. Doubt if you folks in the UK have it but snow blindless tends to be a factor here when letting them out in Winter. All is white. Different. So never let them out in Winter.

Iv seen them in a light snow shower here one day in May...they just went higher and higher then off they went tails to the wind..didn't last long...all came back...ybs

Only good accumalation of snow I saw in the UK was visiting my girl friends fathers brothers farm. Place called Blubberhouses. Yorkshire. Typical stone fences. House had chickens laying eggs on the sofa. Heat was a woodstove. Gas lanterns. No electricity. Rented cows to milk from the local Co-Op. Hand milking. 2 year old kid would get besides a cow and squirt milk in to his mouth. Fortunately times change!
