Dutch Union have declared a "code red" for heat in France for Saturday and all races marking put back 24 hours. Belgian Union have put back the Saturday yb races to Sunday and reduced number of pigeons per basket for old and bus as well. National pigeons due up Saturday are only 15 to a pannier as well. With it being Falaise National this week should the WDA be looking to reduce number per basket to give more space/oxygen per pigeon??? If the transporter has room it makes sense to leave the top rows empty for heat to rise and fill rest of racks with more baskets containing fewer pigeons.
