Cloudy and damp but warm.

Same here today,with very little wind.

High patchy cloud but dry and mild.

Being retired I'm able to fly my birds daily throughout the winter months and while sitting the cocks go out am and the hens at 1-00pm.The birds are pretty much fit with this routine so when the youngsters are weaned 2 weeks before the first race I just give them 3-15mls tosses then into the first race approx 90mls.I wouldn't think of training unless the birds were flying for around an hour a day.atb.

Started off sunny but clouded over now with fine rain.

Happy birthday lads.

Nice sunny morning and 11degs already. 18degs now 12-30.

Rest in peace,a very funny man and a tireless worker for charities.

Many happy returns lads,have a good day

I pay £14-40 for Versele Laga start plus,going up all the time.( 20 kg)

High cloud but 9degs with a sw wind,not a bad morning.

Sapper,my widow hens are exercised from their own section daily and trap back into it.It gives you a couple of options,they can see their cocks before a race and will trap to the cocks section on return and are left there a few hours.If for any reason I don't want them to see their cocks,I let them through to the nestboxes when the cocks are out at exercise they are then basketed from their nest bowls and trap into their own section on return but don't see the cocks.I usually do this for midweek racing or if I think it's going to be a hard race and I want fresh pigeons for the next race,I can then send the cocks. One draw back with this is the hens don't exercise for very long(20mins)but they race twice a week.

Cloudy but dry with a sw wind,a bit on the cool side.

Very well reared youngsters,best of luck with them.

Overnight frost but lovely sunny morning with a light but cool wind.

Good morning all,can't do much in this weather so it's a day spent watching the FA Cup matches.

Heavy rain and strong winds here.

Very dull with light rain.

All the best lads,have a great day

They're looking well,best of luck with them.

Not a bad morning here,very mild and the wind has dropped with patches of blue sky.

Short but very good.

Partly cloudy and windy but mild,7 degs.
