flying fifer Posted July 28, 2019 Report Posted July 28, 2019 Bob i am not going to respond to that comment as it is beneath contempt,Never in my time have i seen such a poor race.. from 60miles, 5 hours between my first two birds. What do you think the problems were today George, that gave such poor results and returns.??
grdkeith Posted July 28, 2019 Report Posted July 28, 2019 What do you think the problems were today George, that gave such poor results and returns.?? Heat,very humid/thunder conditions and East winds coupled with a pretty patchy first race,birds of prey are always going to be a factor but don't think they would produce such slow vels all round.Friday when we tossed there was hot,quite misty and birds homed on time,but there was no east wind
VAGIN Posted July 29, 2019 Report Posted July 29, 2019 When you tossed on friday your doos were out the loft and at the lib point with in a matter of hours . Not dragged around the fed for 8 hours plus then another 3 to 4 hours before they hit the lib point in this sweltring temps with no water that not the best thing for y/bs going for any race. I no there are a lot off diffrent opions what has went wrong but we never learn we will just put it down to a bad race continue breeding more and more birds surely this canny continue As it was said this is not pigeon racing it cruelty I did not send any birds because of the wind factor
grdkeith Posted July 29, 2019 Report Posted July 29, 2019 Agreed Gavin,the point I was trying to make s that I wouldn't put it down to raptors,I only put a small team because of wind
philg50 Posted July 29, 2019 Report Posted July 29, 2019 I only put because i thought with rain forecast would lower the overall temperature and cause less humidity but that proved absolutely wrong ,my mistake no one elses fault ( maybe the weather sites ).
