REDCHEQHEN Posted August 6, 2006 Author Report Posted August 6, 2006 Dave - have Deerness valley and Gateshead fed youngsters in - no race rubbers 2 scottish pigeons - one I have phoned, and this will be fed and watered and released in Newcastle later in the week- furthest north we can get it to, but I'm short of space...!! Only have 3 boxes.......
davebuttle Posted August 6, 2006 Report Posted August 6, 2006 We have limited space too.Got these 2 in perhaps only room for 1 more, possibly 2. As i travel to catterick every day, it is ok for the odd bird to send back down south, Had 1 bird from Nottingham in twice over a 3 week period, over flew by about 100 miles? Released it from catterick at the request of the owner and it got back ok on both counts. North bound birds we release from Aycliffe if asked to do so, but we tend to get them back again, and again. Have tried to set them off from catterick as well, as lots of people use the race course to lib from, but they just seem to come back to our logft. still only got 8/9 back from wakefield, but we do try and breed for quality rather than quantity. Not that we have done very well over the past couple of years, so will be looking for some new breeding stock.
