  1. The ferts are enjoying the new residence.
  2. I watch a few videos on YouTube and there seems to be a lot of people over there keep their pouters on roof tops. Paloma ladrones, buchon, paloma de casa are all different terms for them. I think ladrone is thief? This lad has some good birds i just have to skip all the waffling.
  3. Have you ever seen a suelta over there mate where they have a load of mad coloured pigeons chasing one with a white tail feather? Like this?
  4. Is their still bird flu restrictions in place? How can keepers legally catch up hens and move them to the game farms?
  5. Bit different to our coastline.
  6. I fly them out mate yes. When I kept them in the past I picked up a few stray birds with them and they also used to bring back my missing rollers. The ones I'm flying now im trying to catch ferals with and they have brought a few back but not into the trap box yet, im hoping that changes once the breeding seasons kicks off. I had a feral squeaker with one last week.
  7. Some different types of flying pouters
  8. I keep a few thief pouters at the moment.
  9. I got given this today at work so I'll give it a whirl this week. I had a quick swig before and I don't think I'll be drinking it all in one night ?
  10. Yes but not with the topcoat just the normal matting and resin.
  11. They aren't neoprene lined they're just like a normal welly but the material they're made from is meant to have better insulation than normal. If you are stood around in a swamp your feet get cold.
  12. They are quite big for the size I found, most folk wear boot socks or a couple of pairs of socks so plenty of room. I just got a pair of the steplite xci to try and they seem OK so far, I don't know if they are warmer or its just not been as cold but they seem warmish so far and I've not had to use the heated socks I bought off ebay yet.
  13. Top coat done, I'll get it moved into place and meshed next week and move the stinkers into it.
  14. Topcoat to go on and obviously the mesh.
  15. Does anyone on here know Bill in the flesh? He seemed a knowledgeable bloke and used to make sense mostly but seemed to suddenly go funny, just wondered if he had gone through a hard time or hit the bottle hard or summat? Hope he's ok anyway.
  16. She definitely has a sab look about her doesn't she.

  18. I heard voltarol but then someone else said it didn't work. Never really bothered me locally either since their nest site was demolished and they moved a bit further into town.
  19. I've got a couple of pouters but not getting any more types. These are no hassle.
  20. You'll have to keep what she tells you your keeping and you know it ?
  21. We need Mushroom to fetch us some if these buggers over .
  22. How did the youngster turn out Katch? I'm tempted to put my other cuban doo to the hen and see what they chuck. The black doo bred 2 whites with the white hen. I want some blues.
