Guest llcoolj Posted February 25, 2010 Report Posted February 25, 2010 GREETINGS MY FELLOW FANCIERS. I PAIRED MY BIRDS IN DECEMBER, UNFORTUNETLY DUE TO THE WEATHER (I BELIEVE SO) VERY FEW LAYED EGGS. SOME ARE ACTUALLY TRADING (MATTING) NOW AS WE SPEAK. IS IT TOO LATE FOR HAVING YBS NOW? SOME IRANIAN FANCIER FROM BOREHAMWOOD CLUB SAID HE HAS ABOUT 100 YBS AND IT IS TOO LATE FOR ME TO HAVE YBS NOW. IS THIS FOR REAL.?

Tony C Posted February 25, 2010 Report Posted February 25, 2010 Bar any health issues you can start training y/birds at 12 weeks old, so not to late.
pigeonpete Posted February 25, 2010 Report Posted February 25, 2010 What a load of garbage he has told you!!!!! i raced 1 or 2 april bred ybs last year :-)
Guest bakes Posted February 25, 2010 Report Posted February 25, 2010 still plenty of time to breed ybs all the best.

Guest stb- Posted February 25, 2010 Report Posted February 25, 2010 What a load of garbage he has told you!!!!! i raced 1 or 2 april bred ybs last year :-) There better be plenty time pete as i have only paired a couple of pairs up last weekend that are going to sales and wont be pairing, the rest untill 14th march which is when i have always paired since 1978 as that was the last year i paired mid january. loads of time for young birds :)

ALF Posted February 25, 2010 Report Posted February 25, 2010 Not paired my racers up yet either but i have had y/b's come out the nest end of may begginning of june and flew every young bird race so dont worry
Guest kevin b Posted February 25, 2010 Report Posted February 25, 2010 No not too late, but sure what can you do anyhow. You will have to breed them anyway, later youngsters always trive in the better weather. Good luck with the season and hope you prove your mate wrong. Kevin
