OLDYELLOW

Eat coast Fed ( England ) 86 miles to me

I broke my old birds other year went to old house every time trained them even on eggs was a complete waste of time , only have 4 broken birds in my team now as think they'll do well from the channel this year.

too much barley , been disturbed , red mite too many birds all causes that could create problems

Good luck for next season enjoy it

Many thanks just hope can get through the old bird channel races with 4 old broken cocks as want to go easy on the yearlings Got to play the cards your dealt, win or loose, going to enjoy myself and enjoy the birds , Be the first full season at the new house , So every race going to be flown fingers crossed lol

Hope everyone racing this week has good returns and a good race win or loose enjoy your birds let the fun commence

Good luck guys hope you have a good race ahead

Good luck

Just over half my team is red , a good mixture of red and darks in my young bird team this year with a few grizzles Only complaint in old bird team is the cock to hen ratio lol 2:1

good going , aint dropped a bird normally hawks have had one or two been dam lucky this year other than 2 lost around loft before training started

Usually I miss the first 3 races but because of moving and time out I have sent and plan to send to every race , Still no sprinters in my team so just training but ya never know might fluke one at some point lol,only had 3 trainers one at 20 miles , two at 45 miles and straight in there coming well their still paired up and will split after second race next week after I've finished training I sent 30 birds that's all I have racing All results be put up on site and to East Coast Federation Scribe

Cayton Bay Invitation sent 284 birds To Newark , not too bad for first race and that was with I think 4 members not sent Best of luck to all that are racing this weekend hope you all have a good race with good returns ^_^

Only had 3 tosses and sent to first race, there flying well

Sorry to hear that Tammy ....

Another good training toss came much better today , very pleased 3rd toss 100% returns

mine follow roads and diversions pmsl

Had another good toss yesterday from Hull around 50 miles and they be going again today 100% returns from yesterday Hopefully be same again today

looks like going to be another good day today so be off today with local trainer who bought my trailer other year Aye it's a long season with tired birds , mine are flying well around home just a couple of weeks training on good days is all mine will get. You can soon burn them out before season starts hence why started mine when a good break in weather , most just have teams for the first 3 races which get put away until comebacks so gives them a chance to recover

First toss in this morning at Driffield Show ground just short of 20 miles very pleased 100% returns Straight to Hull tomorrow

Happy Birthday Guys hope your having a great day :emoticon-0167-beer: :emoticon-0123-party:

I find the clay ones wet and become damp underneath when breeding , been porous are prone to frost damage and become brittle and been porous more likely to harbour germs , I like the plastic ones but are a pain to clean but come up great in the dishwasher lol . My uncle was buying bowls at Donny some weren't up to the job and not as wide as I'd of liked may been ok for smaller birds not racers and no doubt would cause curved keels due to the curve and lack of room for the growing young birds.

Happy Birthday Ian , hope your having a great day :emoticon-0167-beer: :emoticon-0123-party:

looking good well done

Too much wind / cold today so no training for mine will at least prepare the baskets ready for tomorrow See if it's any better
