Stu select a time that suits you let them out same time every day they should be hungry When they are batching be patient ,they will eventually start to (range) fly away for a time And return after a while ,let them do this for a while and then and only then are they ready To go in a basket,most fanciers differ on how far you take them for their first toss ,me I take Mine 12 miles and keep them there until they beat me home then i take them out further ,I Take mine out to 20 miles and keep them there.also before you train put them in there Baskets with the drinkers hooked on for about 3 or 4 days feed them in the basket as well The drinking is very important it will stand in good steed in later life.mind they are only a YBS For a year of their lives don't take to many chances with them.good luck PS as soon as they home Get them in .
