  3. i think yer right lol
  4. im sure if you asked her nicely she would of told you herself
  5. he may not if spraying regulary
  6. i have no problem sending same pairs together be short of a miricale they find each other in a liberation if both flying there hearts out and racing against each other well and good but if one slow could slower other one down but only once have i had a pair land together as old birds last year from maidstone were a little off the pace but not bad fer distance birds
  7. they'll go training together however they wont be released at the same time 30 minutes inbetween each liberation , both need training same i let hens go first as my hens are very quick trappers so no problem the cocks catching them up at home end whilst cocks seem to mess around more on shorter tosses
  8. will send what i feel like sending first race will send a few older 2 year olds and just a few yearlings , week after they'll be better prepaired with a bit more training for rest of birds but a mixture of cocks and hens each week they'll all trap in cocks side as i have boards over traps they only hit the one with the landing board open
  9. exactly same as you would if left hens at home apart from im going to keep them dry and im exercising and training hens same time as cocks keeping them dry then no eggs i've only recently tried racing hens as havent done in the past , so its more trail than error with the hens so when i train ill up the hens first wait 30 minutes have a smoke and a cup of tea enjoy the view then let the cocks out our lass at home end will count hens in then move boards over and let cocks in
  10. widowhood both cocks and hens , cant believe how well my hens are flying :X :X :X :X ybs natural

    hope you get him back
  12. cant see that as a hard programme from a mileage point of view :-/
  13. biggest mistake you can make is leaving soiled nest bowls in loft they attract red mite remove them clean them out then place back clean and sprayed and turn them over
  14. aint stopped been same fer days , cleaned birds out exercised them round lofts twice today , much improved the trapping and becoming more controlled , disinfected and washed out car roof top box and training baskets and sprayed them , washed and disinfected all floor grills , ready fer a first toss tomorrow still plenty of jobs to do , but getting there slowly
