  1. hi traynor, i'll tell you my version if that's any good to you. the loft is 24ftx8ft split into 3 sections(1 would be enough if that's all you got) with a corridor along the front, at 1 end of the corridor is a door that leads to an avairy(this is were i keep the hens during racing) i let them all have a young un in their boxes first, then i take the hens and put them in the avairy. this is were the roundabout starts. a couple of days after they've been parted(give them time to stop pouting) i let the cocks out, when they're all out i close up all of the sputniks and open the door to the avairy and let the hens into the corridor, they all go to they're boxes and i close the section doors. when it's time for the cocks to come in, they all trap into the corridor and are ushered along into the avairy. the hens now go out and sputniks closed and cocks allowed to come back into the boxes, the section doors closed up. when the hens come in ,they trap into the corridor and are ushered back into the avairy. on basketing days sometimes i show ,sometimes i don't.
  2. well done wiley, best of luck to you and your family.
  3. all the above things plus i like to see a team of cocks out when they're in good nick and full of themselves, all clapping and gliding around the area and chasing after everything.
  4. i have a cock here now never raced or trained as a yb just flown around the loft(summer bred) as a yearling i gave him 6 races upto 150 mls , as a 2yr old he flew really well, flying the entire programme including all of the welsh southeast nationals(6 races) and picking up 4th,6th,8th+11th sect in the nationals. so i'd say don't go to hard on them this year and next year i think you'll see the best out of them.
  5. look in great nick. very nice

    1to3

    are you racing them?, if yes leave the spare cock in there and send the one paired with everything, it'll do his head in knowing that other cocks with his girls and fly like a banshee to get back.
  11. they should bring back caning in schools and hanging that would make some of them think twice, trouble is these days if they get caught, they know nothing serious is going to come of it, so it don't stop em. the goody tooshoes brigade have tried things they're way and look at the mess we're in. when i was a kid if you got caught, the copper would whack you,take you home and your ol man would kick expletive removed* out of you in front of the cops(mine would). nowadays they send em on holiday. lol
