billt Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 Your'e right Phil, very quiet on here but it is Christmas I suppose, I don't race anymore but when I did would never have been breeding this early, wouldn't have had rings anyway, I've seen pictures of 20 or more weaned youngsters wearing their 2022 rings, What a complete nonsense.

andy Burgess Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 will be looking to pair up 3rd (ish) week in January . too early to breed for sure . doing so in the hope of breaking birds from an ex fanciers loft . havent a clue if it will work , but going to try. other racers and stock will be paired a little later .

Kyleakin Lofts Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 Mid to late February this year. Early for me, but trying to see if I can beat the BOP by training early. Don't race YB's. Got to try something different or we'll just keep getting the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A great example of if it’s not broke don’t fix it imo Unfortunately as I have explained on several occasions, it was broke! Due to the Old Server closing down it's service a new server had to be sourced hence the update. Please let this post return to its original topic, regarding Pairing birds. A previous Topic titled Site Format, had 61 posts regarding members views and opinions on the latest update. Any further posts regarding the site update on this topic, will be removed by Admin.

Two rounds and all fl the whole programme. From the shortest to the longest ... but not neccesarily every race, Traing! Never done back in the 50-mid 60's. That started when the Trains lines closed in many racess, and some wanted 'Other's' wanted others tppay their fuel. Whether they went the same place to be released is often doubted... released on way back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
