36 new birds... good deal?


a local racer was getting out all the way. got the call today

went to his house and when i left you could not have given me one more nest bowl, my car was sooooooooooo full

recieved were:


36 new birds... some flyers not settled very young, some breeders some evn from holland!

two pro plan totes full of racing feed and black oil sunflower seeds

at least 40 disposible nest bowls

2 bullet waterers

1 carry crate (the only item i paid for)

1 bag of racing pigeon feed 50lbs

1 bag black oil sunflower seeds

1 50 lb bag of SAFFLOWER!

1 bottle liquid garlic

1 container of salts

2 big bath pans

12 or so widowhood perches unused

12 wooden eggs

misc literature

6 belgun nest bowls

50 lb bag of red grit
