OK-I have a trap out to my aviairy and then the same trap to get back in. They can come and go as they please into the avairy. They have been in the new loft for about a week (weened) I just haven't opened up the doors yet to let them fly. They are traping just fine so you think they are old enough to let fly for the first time? Thanks Jack

Just wondering how old are your birds before you let them out for the first time? Mine are about 35 days old now and was just wondering when i should start thinking about letting them go? They seem to be traping just fine. Thanks Jack

Hey, Thats me. I have had birds for about 2 weeks now. I have heard Peanuts are a good motivator. Just trying to learn. Jack

I just read that last night. Makes peanuts sound pretty good. Would like to here more. Jack

This will be my first year with Pigeons.I am trying to get ready to race YB's. I have some breeders and am just about done with my YB loft. Just looking for any info-tips-advice or what ever you want to offer. How to train-feed-before race-after race, anything. Have been talking to people and reading all I can find. Just want to be ready when the birds are. Thanks and have a Happy New Year. Jack

Basic 15.5% Grain. I think it is a basic race mix. Have read 15-25% layer pellets is good. These are my first birds and just want to feed them right. Thanks Jack

Just wondering how much and what you are feeding your breeders? Just been feeding about 1 1/2 oz 15.5% because it is what I have. What about layer pellets? Thanks Jack

Merry Christmas!

Right now the sun is low in the sky and hi temps are still pretty cold. But yes when it warms up the glass is a concern. For now it seems to be OK. I was also a little concerned about hawks seeing them but so far so good. I am all ears if you see a mistake. Thanks Jack Merry Christmas

The little loft-I built it from scraps I had and maybe $30 in store bought parts. Yes, The roof is an old glass sliding door I had. The 6 birds were unexpected so had to put something together fast. Still a work in progress. Jack

More pics!

Egg was a loss so pitched it . Should have new ones soon. Just picked up 6 more birds. I don't have the best set-up as of now but working on it. Jack

Its kind of funny, I just don't know much about other parts of the world. I just don't understand the metric system-Even thou they have been teaching for at least 30 years. I just may be to old. You all do know your Pigeons. Thanks Jack

I was kinda thinking that but had no dummy eggs! I will pick up some for future use. jack

Didn't mean to! Hows your weather? Jack
