well - if I had taken notice of the comments on here
I wouldn't have had a 2 year old who was 3rd club - 9th Fed 1887 birds (55 miles) 192nd combine 24,000 birds (260 miles) and 13th combine 19000 birds Lillers (317 miles) in 2007
he hadn't scored until then
a 3 year old who was 18th Fed Bourges 544 miles (who also hadn't scored until then) 2008
another 3 year old 2nd club 197th combine 445 miles - who also was the first time scoring 2008
a 3 year old - injured as a yearling and never raced again until this year - was just outside the first 200 from 34,000 birds - she was 2nd club 8th fed 1872 birds (260 miles) it was also the first time she'd scored as well
another 2 year old hen first time scoring - 1st club 2nd fed 2107 birds (202 miles)
I could go on .......zzzzzzzzz (evil)
Half my loft are 3 - 5 years old
