  1. birds that follow the main drag are lost when flying out on there own and lack the intelligence to find there own line of flight , these might get lucky but i wouldn't want to bank on them from the distance when there having to fly solo most of the time
  2. off for another toss now hope to beat the rain just over 20 miles i started with 37 still have 36 left , imagine hawk probably took one as stamped up and not reported if i get to end of week with 30 i'll be more than happy , if i still have the 36 i guess the times im choosing to train are working around the bops feeding patterns
  3. I feel you need to train ybs , mine will be trained up to first race then i stop training , just not worth running the gauntlet everyday and feeding the bops , problem is this if you don't train ybs they get stress when basketed , birds that are regularly been basketed get used to the stress as becomes more normal those that have fed and watered there ybs over night on weekends in there baskets will fair better than those that haven't , banging young birds in to races untrained have to rely on the drag to get them home many don't even leave the liberation site , training just sets them up for racing , ybs should be fit and in good health and no great need to take fat off them , ybs are the future of your loft and should you choose not to put the work in then it will show

  22. yes I would also say lay a new floor on top then after a few years you can rip it up and replace it , also protect the loft floor , I have 3/4 chipboard on top of my floor if I felt was harbouring too much nasty's during the season I simply take it up and put a new one down
  23. Jeyes fluid is a great loft disinfectant If been stood for a few years the risk from picking anything up is greatly reduced how ever I'd disinfect will get rid of all the dust and bloom and give it a fresh start and piece of mind Jeyes Fluid kills the Bird Flu H5N1 virus dead http://www.jeyes.co.uk/jeyesfluidJF.htm
