  1. At 56 you lads make me feel young, I still get a buzz every time I go out and I enjoy as much now as I did when I was a kid. On a different note Thursday night at the Rifle Club , I was the youngest out of eight blokes by six years. Their ages 62 ,67, ?, ? , ?, 78 and 82, and that old chap still shoots like John Wayne. Keep taking the pills Sherlock.
  2. I think you are being a bit generous with 100 mil of concrete , I would lay it 50 mil thick more than ample for an eighty pound lurcher and a kennel. Also I would put some water proofing agent in the mix ,it stops the pee from soaking into the concrete. Also put a sheet of visquene (polythene) under the concrete, this will stop it drying out to quickly and you will also get a better smoother surface .
  3. Beautiful birds Moss both yours and your friends nice to see.
  4. Joshc 123 great reply to a new guy, precise with no Micky taking Top Man.
  5. I remember that in the 1970,s a German woman gave birth to a pair of twins, one of the babies was dark skinned and the other child had light skin. The woman admitted to having a sexual relationship with two different men within a very short space of time. One of the men was of African orign the other was a white European. ATB Sherlock.
  6. Millet , Watch Foxhounds feeding on u tube , a French pack of foxhounds 120 strong a good laugh.
  7. P5HEN, Not only can you lose your licence but your vehicle can be confiscated and anything else the police decide assisted you in the persute of the hare or deer, ie your clothing ,watch ,phone ,Tom Tom,nets any tools in the vehicle. It would not surprise me if they also had the power to enter your home to check your freezer and your computer or laptop. I can,t understand some of the folk on here bragging about what they have caught and killed ,and it's always pre ban of course. Then there's the folk who post pics via photo bucket or Flickr these are all time dated or should I say they are
  8. You are all slagging Richard Morgan for the inaccuracies in his posts, the person you should be slagging of no the person who needs banning from this site forthwith is THE p***y POACHER . His comments at the top of page two ,which insight mass trespass and violence towards either land owners or the police are outrageous, and his comments should be removed immediately. Comments like this give fuel to the Anti,s and make the lifting of the hunting ban less likely, it also makes some of us decent hunting folk seem like thugs. A disgusted Sherlock.
  9. Mark21, to receive answers to your questions we will need to know your bird house is built , how many windows doors is it insulated and which type of birds you intend to keep. Better still put a pic up and you will get advice. Cheers Sherlock.
  10. Myth No 1 The bitch contributes 60% 70% or even % of the genetic make up of the pups, COBBLERS the bitch contributes 50 % just like the sire. Myth No 2 Always put the speed on top ie greyhound sire collie bitch same again COBBLERS. Funny story I was once asked by a Police Officer whilst being quizzed as to why I was forty miles from home exercising my rough coated Deerhound type lurcher, Is that a Suzuki
  11. . Here is a breeding chart for recessive inheritance these rules apply to birds dogs and Humans. Cheers Sherlock.
  12. Moll, Blue is recessive to Green, if you did this cross all the young would be Green. They the young would be termed as Green split Blue written as Green / Blue. If you did the said cross blue hen X green male and you got blue young then the green male the father to your young is a Green / Blue. So then a Blue X Green/ Blue will produce 50%Blue and 50% Green /Blue. The sex and colour of the young can be either . Hope this helps
  13. I am trying the cat litter, very successful so far although the birds are not burying their droppings just yet! Cheers Moss and Butler.
  14. I,m not sure what you are not sure about!

  19. Is it possible to get feathered saluki's from two non feathered saluki's? Just curious .
  20. It's a bit early in the season for buying birds, my first round birds are only just starting the moult. Good quality birds won't be on the market until late September early October . Take care when buying , as there are as many rouges in the canary world as there is in the dog world, I speak from experience. ATB .
  21. I can translate Minshaw man and I can work out percentages but I am afraid Whin has got me stumped!.
  22. yagetthem telt on here dnt ya ry . Possible translation . You get them told on here don't you Ryan .
  23. Know matter how much colour fed you give to a Norwich it will not go red, clear Norwich Yorkshire and lizard canaries turn orange with the correct amount of colour food. Red factor canaries turn red because they have the genes for it . the red factor canary was created in the nineteen thirties in Germany by a Hans Dunker he crossed a Dominant white canary with a Black Headed Red Siskin ( Carduelis cucullata ) . Some of the young males turned out to be fertile and these were back crossed to female canaries. In the the second cross he got fifty percent fertility in the hens and one hundered per
  24. Hairyface, Ihave posted some pics of my pup on the Whippet and Whippet X thread page 4 . Cheers sherlock
  25. The photo,s above are of my bitch pup, she is eleven months old . Her sire is a bull lurcher whose breeding can be traced back to Minshaws blue, her dam is a Laguna whippet that was sired by Mike Browns Glen "strike whilst the irons hot. She stands at twenty one and a half inches tts and weighs 34 lbs. cheers Sherlock.
