Welcome and enjoy the best pigeon forum in the UK

it was a joke

Right that's it the garden wall is coming down

Going to pick me up plenty of envelopes tomorrow get it rite into these basterds

Just got another 2 out of the 5 missing so only 3 missing happy days

We have to do this definetly

Aye anno john yer right just the same as you said I would lose 25% which I more or less did so should probaly leave it at that mate although I'm not to happy that half had only one toss

well no more from that toss so i lost 5 but quite clearly if they cant do ten mile a cant see them been any good anyway i know they were ready were ready and all started flying with the others that managed there first toss fine actually quicker than the first birds i tossed from the same point so im now left with 17 birds for next year a few more tosses and thats that for them.

brilliant

I've not got a prob with the distance it was the time I done it after all there homing pigeons if I took my dog a mile away then 2 then 3 I bet he could find his way home too

aye hopefully mate a think ill get something in the moring a didny toss them till quarter to 6 the nigt for a first toss probaly the wrong thing to do but hey live and learn

Dropped 5 from 14 tonight first toss only ten mile

I didny think you could rent land of people for a loft what would happen if he decided he didny want you there anymore

just was in the loft looking handling some of my birds was looking at there wings and they all seem to have flytes growing about half way down right across the wing is this far in the moult

Just got another 2 back so up to 9

Seven out of 14 so far one hour in 45 mins

First toss tonight for the untrained ones tonight

Cheers mate

Do any you guys change there feed for the moult or add anything or could recommend a good moulting mix

cheers mate a think im gonny try get them there first toss tomorrow morning before work

just read that there a didny realise how important it was im now think maybe just leave the ones that havent been trained and just use them as feeders next year as ive already been promised good birds eggs

ill be racing them all next year as i have only 20 are rung my other 2 are unrung and for stock maybe if i just give them 3 or 4 ten milers and thats will do them for the year

the trouble i have is i got my birds late on and 16 havent even been trained and also a cant tell how far they are on in the wing molt either but they need trained this year

is it okay to still train them
