SNOWY,ALWAYS FOUND MY BEST YOUNG BIRDS HAVE HAD NIGHTS OUT, MIGHT HAVE BEEN FROM ROUND HOME OR TRAINING THEY MUST LEARN ALOT THROUGH THIS.IF THEY COME BACK THEY WILL NOT WANT TO DO IT AGAIN
WE START THIS YEAR ON THE 14TH APRIL 2-3 WEEKS TO EARLY FOR ME, MY BIRDS STILL FEEDING BIG YOUNG BIRDS,THEIR NOT GOING TO SEE THE BASKET FOR ANOTHER WEEK AT LEAST.
2 CLUB MATES WENT YESTERDAY MORNING 15 MILES WITH 60 BIRDS, AFTER 30 MINS ONLY 7 HOME,AFTER 2 HOURS ONLY 10 MORE, UP TILL TONIGHT 15 STILL MISSING ALL RACED BIRDS.THESE ARE GOOD FANCIERS.
if six cars go to a training point and let there birds up together there,s no problem, these birds going to the same area all ok no licence required but one van doing the same needs a licence. huh :-/

when the young are old enough for hard food i put food and water in my mouth, then feed them mouth to mouth. after a couple of goes they will take food easy. i do wash my mouth out afterwards
i,ve got a 5 year old hen from my dad when he packed up,she,s very calm until she,s got young birds then all hell brakes loose .she has both wings up and jumps at you with wings hitting out in or out of the box.pure nut case
always wear same colour tops but main thing is your voice and tone of it, wife and kids think i,m mad when they hear me going into the loft saying hello boys and girls in a silly way
this year up till now i,ve two killed,one badly hurt and three more that have been hit, every time i wait for it (with a surprise) bloody thing does not show. i,ve had to change my routine so every things done and ready for when they land and call them in. even having to put bath in the traps.
