I was told by a good yb darkness flyer that pairing them any earlier than Jan / Feb is just a waste of feeding ,as for flights i always was happiest when they throw 2 flights together on both wings prior to basketing for the main event ,then they are really on song ,Yb darkness cock that did this was 2nd section national ,and a blue hen i had threw 2 flights each year for 3 years prior to basketing for the gold cup 500 miles always clocked on the day up to 16 hours on the wing NW wind and always 7000 plus birds behind her ,everyone to there own but for me the more they throw the better ,good luck

Just keep them on a breeding or moulting mix at this time of year ,never overfeed and always like them to be looking for food ,feel they moult better,then miss out there Sunday feeds during January then all is well PS I don't have any overweight joiners working for me that's because during January they don't eat on Sundays aswell just go down to the pub and get p----d

Thanks ,The way i see things is once i have bred the first round for myself ,i am more than willing to let others have youngsters as it is the easiest thing to let an egg hatch that may do someone a turn instead of breaking them ,it also keeps the breeders happy and is easier on them if not being split,agree with you in the present climate not easy for the working man paying crazy money when they should be available for the carriage -

Will have been racing the doos 40 years next year and still get us big a buzz on a Saturday as i did all those years ago ,think when that feeling leaves me will be time to call it a day ,have always been one of the first to congratulate a winner ,but have to say these last few years am now developing a winning mentality perhaps i feel if i am going to win a national its time to think of No 1,at the same time will always gift my best pigeons to new starters like i have done again this year,all my best birds were gifts this is something i feel is sadly lacking today ,I attended a presentation a few weeks back and presented a young lad with a trophy he had won along with his father,i spoke to the lad later on and i will go out of my way to breed him some youngsters of what i consider to be my very best in the hope that one comes good and he gets as much pleasure out of this wonderful sport as i have since my early days -

Very good post by Jamie,I would go along with that proposal ,as for separate liberation's we should start this immediately with the young bird national giving all Yb's a distance race with the best chance of getting home ,way it is at present trying to get one into the south is just a lottery to many good ones lost ,only got to look at the west section from the same race some had good returns but were not at the races velocity wise,surely to build a team for the future for everyone we have to start with our youngsters ,the rest will then take care of itself,and why we changed from newbury a fantastic liberation point in the middle of the country beggars belief
