How common is a albino pigeon? my pair of blue bar pigeons last hatch had one blue bar and one all white. But he lacks any color and has bright pink eyes and pink skin. Will this present any health problems? I will up load some pictures next week once he is feathered out he looks pretty cool.

I am planning a hunting trip next year for grouse in michigan and I was wondering if anyone has been to Bears nine pine resorts. I like the semi guided hunts and it seems nice on the web site but I was just wondering if anyone has personal experience .

Thank you I wasnt sure if the address on their site was he grounds or the chairman's address.
Thank you again

I am going to head over to Mahoney Farms in Marysville, OH to check out the nstra trial. I was wondering if anyone else on here was going and if anyone has any directions? I dont know if I ever will compete but should be fun checking it out. I have been to a couple a long time ago but I was young.

My brother was in a motorcycle accident last night. Some a$$ thought face timing a friend was more important then watching the rode. The guy blew the red light just as my brother was crossing the intersection, he was able to lay it down just in time he slamed into the side of the car at about 30 mph...

Thats what I was planning on just letting him hunt this season with no pressure but I also heard that if you let a dog get to old before FF it my make it harder. Upland is all I hunt with him but in the future I wouldnt mind taking him on some dove hunts but that is along way down the road. If I can...
