Your right Andy hows 8818 doing mate

Some of you will recall me putting up photo's of the new stock loft I built a year past xmas I was ever so impressed with the conditions in the loft throughout the summer and the condition of both old and young that it got me thinking over the winter months that perhaps the racing cocks would be better benefitting from the conditions ,so I finally took the decision and moved the breeders out and the boys in . they settled in no probs and soon had their own boxes ,the biggest decision I had to make then was with them being celibate should I pair them up for the first time ever to bond them to loft and box ,I finally paired them letting them choose their own mates and things went like clockwork I then had to rearrange the front as there was no way for birds to exit or enter from ,once this was addressed I finally let them out what a bloody nightmare as they wanted back into racing loft which is within touching distance after thinking about this problem (yes I do a lot of thinking lol)I duplicated the front as if it were the racing loft Problem solved ya beauty Did not enter first race as they still had young entered cocks into second race still with young and unfit ,not a good day at the races ,I immediately moved on the Saturday night all hens with youngsters into section of racing loft and they finished them off the cocks responded immediately being own their own .out for 1-1/2 in morning and 2 at night came into fettle very quickly Sent 21 week past and got 20 then on Saturday sent 19 and got twenty yes the one from the week previous lol The thing I'm happy with although it is bitterly cold outside just left the loft an hour ago and it was reading 19 degrees inside and that was before I closed the Avairy no wonder they've came good Said to the missus think I will move in with them Her reply Thought you Had hope you enjoy the wee bit of banter

Top man this week Stuart

No cats come near this garden with psycho the dog lol Yes should be good racing day Walter ,hens are in good nick but will have to produce something special to beat cocks Had ten cocks last week before hen clocked

I have at present a yearling hen who acts like any other in the loft she is also tame ,She reared a single youngster then since separated when let out for exercise with the other hens has a mind of her own. the hens have been going out after the cocks approx. 6-50 the wind has been strong and bitterly cold but they fly of their own free will for approx. 45 minutes before landing ,the cheq hen however the last few nights has raced the skys as if her life depended on it for approx. 1hour 40 minutes This morning I let her have part of the passageway with an old unpaired cock and they lay in the bowl most of the day loved up (just like we used to be lads )My thinking was she would land with the others tonight ,no chance out at 6-50 landed after racing flat out at 8-55 then walked in as if all was ok I'm still suffering from hypothermia Ps she was a gift from a friend and is bred of birds that were responsible for winning the snfc average for 2 longest races recently ,thinking about giving her a few more races then keeping her for a 2 yo when she may have settled down Any Thoughts ??
