G'day from Australia.
Thanks for your visit ☺️
I cant fuken watch this, WFT are you doing chewing chewy loke that on camera, sounding like a nob.
Id recommend painting the inside of the loft with white wash like on all surfaces
Never thought about that, might look into it!
@WinfortLofts just dehydrated building lime mixed with water until it's like wall paper paste. It's caustic so kills all bacteria and fungi and is a good prevention for cocci
never give up buddy you have to crawl before you walk you are doing the best you can do well done
Thanks!
Well… your loft is is order so get the best you can afford
Thats the plan now!
can only go with your means for birds. blow torch ideal in this weather.
Exactly!
❤Good Luck!
Thanks 👍🏼
Couldn't sit through this due to the chewing sounds.
Understandable, I will definitely be aware of this for the next video!
Don’t give up my friend trying to make things that makes you happy and especially what you were doing racing pigeons. It makes you happy makes you feel good. Just redo it. Make a new start brother don’t give up Jesus never gave up. So you’re trying to do the same thing. Do not give up. Take this comment as inspiration think about it. God is good amen. and by the way, God bless all the people commenting here and trying to help you emotionally do don’t forget God is always in charge 🙌
Sorry to hear about the loss of your grandfather. He’ll be watching over you
Thanks for your comment, I have a feeling you're right, and he'll definitely be guiding me still! 😊
Sorry to hear that, hopefully you get back on your feet soon. My advice would be stick to one or two fancier and stick with their birds. Don't restock from loads of different lofts.
I'm planning to be very selective on what and where I bring birds in from. I do think I went wrong to start with by accepting birds from everyone, and I'm sure they all had the best of intentions too!
Why eat a chewing gum and talk ?
That's 100% on me!
Need chewing while talking
Cheers for the message, I completely agree, and didn't realise that I had the chewing gum until I was editing!! 😭
burn often spray down regular nothing worsh than wood nastys inbed in it aspecially winter if your loft not bone dry good luck
Sorry to hear your sad news .get yourself some YB.and go along with it
Thanks!
Didn’t understand a single word he said !
Read the room. Or are you not capable of that either??
Sorry to hear about your grandad, and glad your not giving the pigeons up. Get a nice team of young birds and you will have loads of time to train them and race them, why wait until next year just enjoy them.
Thanks for the comment, I plan to get a kit of young birds in the new year, I just don't want to act too rashly, and be patient with what I go for!
My husband .lost his dad 5 weeks today he got him to pigeons it's been very hard keep doing pigeons your grandad would be proud of you take your time life can be hard you come ok soon take care we missed you
Sorry to hear about his loss, it's not easy when you lose someone close! I hope to make him proud, and will work hard to do so!!
Good luck get yourself a nice team of yb just train them up then go with them as old birds
I am planning to get a kit of young birds also! 😁
nice to see you back y was just thinking about you and the channel the other day sorry to hear about your grandad
Thanks so much for your comment, I hoping to be a bit more on top of things after Christmas!
Good to hear you are going about things correctly……it will pay off ….it will then be all worth it
I feel it's something that needed to be done ultimately!
sorry about your grand father may he rest in peace....and i hope that it all works out for you
Thanks for your comment! 🙂
Sorry to hear about your granddad, you’ve had no luck with the birds in the last 18 months what was the problem with the birds ? Take 12 months out re charge your batteries . Soak the the loft in verkon s Good luck in the future 👍🏴
Wot stran are they? Patricks
Yes, they are down from the old Kirkpatrick's!
Thought so. Thanks for replying
❤Greetings from Amsterdam Holland! Love your pigeons!
Thanks very much! Your most welcome!!
Nice one good to see you back mate
Good to see you mate
Some quality looking birds there mate. I'm new to pigeons looking to get set up soon for next year so will be following your videos from now on
Brilliant stuff! Definitely the best time of the year to get setup! There will be people looking to off load good quality birds, but make sure to do your research! Best of luck to you going forward and I appreciate you following my channel!
Yes I'll be looking to get in touch with people over birds to get me set up Looking forwards to the next video @@WinfortLofts
❤Beautiful Pigeons! Looking Forward to the next video!
Glad to see you still with the birds…..no more health issues?
Touch wood, but health wise things have been good for some time now!
Hey welcome back.
Why not pay this amount it's only money.
It's a bargain really!
Watching from Philippines sir❤
Thanks and welcome!!
Good to see you back
Thanks mate, feels good to be uploading again! Aiming to get a bit more organised and more regular! xD
im looking forward for your breeding and race. 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Much appreciated 👍
Nice pigeon sir
Thanks 👍
Good to see you mate 4 years you had pigeons now you should had a team of raceing pigeons now how many young have you got and you after be hundred percent in this hobbies raceing pigeons takes a Lott of your time I would keep at your young birds and health in your loft good luck
I currently have 16 young birds! I'll be honest this year feels a lot better than previous years. That said last year also felt really good, and I was confident in the birds last year, and then lost most in the first race! But this definitely feels like the first year I actually know what I'm doing!
Definitely shut the loft and forget OB racing….concentrate fully on YBs
That's pretty much my plan now!
Good demonstration
Thanks!
Hope all last year’s problems are sorted and you can race with confidence 😊
Thanks mate! I'm feeling a lot better about things this year, so hopefully that will transfer to the birds and performances too!!
Was he using Colin leask products? That’s could be the reason they were ill
The whole loft is a different setup to last year, I am no longer having issues with the damp creeping up through the floor either!
Don’t understand a word you said
Sorry, is it an accent thing? Or something else? Hopefully it's something I can work on in the future!
Sadly RPRA has been running on days gone by, instead of moving forward,, for years,, it’s an antiquated organisation, what needs to be brought up to date instead of rolling over,, hawk problem and defra rules,, maybe we need a new organisation,,
That's very much the case I think! RPRA is still being run as though it's the 1950's and unfortunately it's not kept up with the times!
Add new rules for the modern times is what RPRA needs to do also need to encourage new people into this hobby, I love this hobby but sadly not much young folk like to do this
I think once the finances are in order through modernising the structure, then it will be easier to push and promote the sport!
Social media and also their website need to be exciting and scrap the rubber clock system and stick to ets
Exactly this! Needs to be exciting and enticing from the off!
❤
I’ve only just started and I can’t believe how cheap everything is! If you think my children do gymnastics which is £80 per month! Everything since I’ve started this fantastic sport is cheap, if you compare it to other sports and hobbies! It’s a little bit prehistoric and needs a revamp, this might also entice new people to the sport!
It can be cheap, but can very easily get very expensive too!
Its run by complete amateurs. Needs a good overall of all things . This has been going on for years .Brian woodhouse warned this would happen
The warnings have been there for years! It's not something I normally comment on too much. But I think we're at the point now where the minority becomes the majority, and this could well be the catalyst for change!
Hi mate.. looking to finally get into the sport next year.. Am I right in understanding, if my name was mr jones and son that would be £70? Sorry if it’s a obvious question
Hey, No worries for your question! Fortunately at this point, (statement was released today) is suggested that junior membership fees is not increasing. However, if your son was over 16, and you both wanted to be members of the RPRA, in a partnership, then the fee would be £70!
Willem is Hot in the uk
Yes very much so! The one this year sold for £67,000
i would lock the pairs in the nest boxes till they lay but that just me
I think I may have to do this with some of them tbh!
Looking good the birds make you keep eye on them good luck
Thanks, you too!
are you from weymouth...can i loft visit...
Hello, I'm not from Weymouth no.
Thank you for your videos my husband wants you to well in the sport of pigeons keep going are mate breed as many as you can take care
Thanks to you both! I hope that I can keep progressing as well as producing content that people are happy watching!
