    Any ideas??????

    thanks, all the offenders are on eggs typical!!! was thinkning of taking all perches down moving all hens that havnt a box or layed into spare loft(which i didnt have before) and letting cocks fight it out until they have a nestbox for them selves?

    Any ideas??????

    thanks i was told to take some of the perches down in there so they have to have a nest box to land on but this seems to be causing more fighting with a few of the younger cocks being pushed around

    Any ideas??????

    thanks, i have 2 sets of eggs already from the pairs that have got the nest boxes.
  5. am new to pigeon racing and my firt time paring up. have paired my stock birds up now for about a month, most have paired up but have not taken a nest box. the few that have taken one seem to have taken over 2 or 3 spare nest boxes as well leaving the others with no where to nest. i have tried locking the other nest boxes up for a few days but as soon as there open i am back to square one. any ideas ?

  10. Great looking birds blaz, thanks again for the 3 u gifted me. still got 2 of them the check cock (the one u gave me extra, a great looking pigeon turning into a big pigeon) and the blue hen. will also sort some pics out
  11. When would you recomend doing your old pigeons? before you pair them up or after. also do you vaccinate every year or just as young pigeons? thanks
  12. A new starter here didnt manage to get any of my young birds in any race as i started late. i am going to start to race them as old pigeons. do you think i am best to keep training them all through the winter or hang on to them and start next year. does anyone find they dont race to good as old pigons if they havnt been raced as young.? thanks
  13. I will third that, mine are doing great. thanks again Blaz (the extra pigeon you sent me is a real cracker thanks)

  20. This is my fist year racing pigeons and took my 12 pigeons last night about 4 o clock about 20 miles, they have been coming good up until now. let them out and they flew round a few times then noticed a big BOP in the sky all the pigeon seem to fly towards it and went really high. coudnt believe it, they went out of sight and i didnt get 1 single pigeon back yesterday. i have had 5 back this morning. gutted
  21. cheers Blaz for your generous offer
  22. Every monring when i let my young pigeons out they are gone for at least 2 hrs and keep coming back in groups of twos and threes. i am getting them all back but just wondered if this is normal? i have only trained up to about 5 miles as whether has been rubbish
