So basically your setting them up for 2 year old's and not burning them out and letting them mature as these will be the future stars of the loft but valuable training for there racing career ahead . Moving on to 2year old's what racing would these see and when would you start them off ???

Moving on to your Yearlings , preparation as above , what racing would these yearlings see and when would you start them off ???

Do you feel it's important to give the young birds training and a few races in the year that there bred ???

Do you do anything special to help them through the moult ??? or do you see it as a natural process that requires no intervention ???

Well the internet is a great place to start to track them watch there results , but there all in a different languages , well google chrome automatically changes them to English simply use these two words one at a time at the end of the fanciers name and you'l get plenty of results and even better with chrome it will auto translate them , the two key words are 'DUIF' AND Duiven , happy searching
