just ask me

well i think it don't look good on them to be honest but would not surprise me to find out that when cam comes back on the birds have been removed id like to get good odds on that

cooremans i would imagine some good results all over with them or maybe we haven't seen the last of the soonjents

i belive there only a choosen few who actually knows what they are really talking about and im not one lol

im a bit lost buyer not talking bird could be a time waster maybe not put back up for resale go to highest bidder i think there's something being made of noting here to be honest maybe redfox if u dont allow pm bids everyone will see what going on and make there own mind up there seems to be previous here between members so out in the open with this one might be the way too go jmo

its closely related to a bird that is racing very well for me at the moment i will try to get the racers eye up if i can this pic was not taken by me it would be a sprint pigeon of soontjen origin wasn't playing any tricks to be honest

I'm not keep u guessing one of them unsolved mysteries ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

the other eye is even better looking ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D i know some dont go for the eye sign thing but some do so i said id post it

well lads what do u think

well in my opinion there two things here my first guess is there not actually on widowhood i know u might have gone though the motions of pairing up laying eggs and all that its really hard to judge when we cant actually see the set up and what u have done with the birds other thing could be a management problem as in a health problem but id bet there not actually on the system correct at the end of the day its your first time we all make mistakes its up too u too learn from them what i would suggest is to get dave allens widowhood year book it might be old but for me out of all the books ive read on widowhood its explains the system very well i myself fly a different system to dave system in that book but i feel for anyone trying widowhood for the first time it wont put u wrong and is a great book to start on widowhood

to be honest i dont play many tricks but when there is a older cock in the loft that after geting cute as i think they do at times i feel the odd time they need a little jig espacilly at sprint races but in this sport in most cases there seems to be no right or wrong way :-/

thw w,hood cocks thread good too jimmy is telling all not leaving anything out take a look

that enough now jimmy jesus i want to win next week ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

the secerts coming out now ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

well hard to explain for me it comes with watching them and seeing what makes them tick such as u might have a widow hood cock who doesn't like a cock being out side is box on ground well sometimes what i do is put something on the floor ie a a large size tub on the ground about 2 foot away from box so that when pigeon on tub hes eye level with pigeon on box he will go drive out of his box to knock pigeon off the tub also u put a a tub like this in the loft the cocks will fight like mad to be on the top of it its all about watching really

being only 108 miles i really wouldn't do anything different that if your results are ok as they are just be careful with the east winds did not look at the weather yet but east winds over the water would be cold

i think the day and age of good birds performing week in week out under bad management is gone or did that ever happen i don't think so the sport is really professional now weather people think its right or wrong its not the point racing is so competitive now the work has to be put in to achieve results no matter what strain or who's pigeons u buy some may need less work then others to get into top form bit u can be sure the top flyers in tour federation are working hard no doubt about that one

straight to the point and so true to get to the top selection has to be real hard for me i try not to have any favourites train them hard when they are young keep young cocks with top results (well for widowhood flyers ) and i like to put in one or two that there brothers have raced well they will in most cases pay u back in saying that after a few year most of my cocks are down off the one pigeon in some way or another children or grandchildren over 85% of my cocks would have the lines of one hen

i would think jimmy would agree if u keep playing the same tricks they get cute they are cute little beggars for me personally i wouldn't play any tricks with yearlings till late in season and remember u need to get roughly 15 to 20 races out of them so keep the tricks till later in the year well done to all for the input bet some novices will get something out of this

may peace with his familly and friends

taught this might be of interest what tricks do ppl play with there cocks to motivate them or do before that big race

ohhhhhhhhh whos blushing ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

nope mate like most they will hit rain when training and when they race also when they are young i wil train them in anything widowhood cocks is all about condition and the building up slowly to reach top form and noting puts a bird back a few weeks then cold miserable rain especially this time of year with it being so cold my first three birds last week will be (i hope) up near the top of the fed and they were really wet coming back and they have not been out in the rain in well i cant remember to be honest i just belive its not worth the risk of bringing down the condition that all widowhood cocks need without it u are wasting ure time

would totally agree certain birds for certain races would u also they in general that birds with wider flights do better with the wind behind them just something i noticed :-/

what ever the way wind was it dont make a differnce with results like that its what i thrive for to get results like that fairplay

i do same thing i do hate that bleeding rain
