I have had mine out for a week now, I feel quite safe when they are at the loft. Have had no probs at the loft for 4 years since I put my flashing rope lights up. They are starting to range a bit now and when I shut them up at 3pm I noticed a Hen missing. On checking I see it`s 1727, She was 1st club ~ 1st S/Sect/ 1st Fed/1,115 birds. My last Y/B race last year I sent 10 to Wakefield and the only one lost was my pooler, 1725`s brother. he had been 1st, 3rd & 24th Fed up to 1,351 birds. Thats zero left from that stock pair for 2015. yip it`s hard going. Allan
