well its not the results im worried about i got a young family and cant aford the forever riseing costs of pigeon racing. plus fuel is on its way up again that meens the cost of feed for the birds,and all other gen every day needs of my family will be going up. but like i said i will keep my birds for my own pleasure and not race untill my family has flown the nest and it may be a little easyer for me to aford then,
