The right food for racing?

[Ronnie]

Just been in to check the birds for basketing tonight and noticed they all seem heavy.How do i go about getting the corky blown up feeling in them?

Am i right in thinking its the food that brings them like this(corky) or is it the training or a mixture of both.I will be looking just to get the birds home this week as its the first race but as from next week i am looking to compete and aim to win as much as possible with my team of 6

your better to experiment with your feeding lad to find out what is the right way for your pigeons as no one can tell you how to feed them anything anyone will say is about there own feeding methods try it out for yourcell good luck ;D ;D ;D ;D

Sir may i suggest you look at your feeding ie carbohydrates,protiens etc the amounts being fed and the work you are giving them .Only you know if your birds are fit so train and feed accordingly and get them fit and send them in right condition ie sitting and fitness wise .

I flew my rollers in comp yesterday. I had em right and the stinking wind got up and ruined a really good shot at the finals. 17 mph gusting to 25. They still hit 9 turns and flew the time. I hate it because they were so on point.

 

Point of this rant is I almost fed then extra the day before, I knew they were right but I thought I could make em just a little better. In the end I used my better judgement amd left them alone.
