Are you ready for new season

[leighton1984]

Not long till racing starts are you ready .

[Guest cloudview]

im certainly not ready first race   on 12th april  ,  the ybs  will have been off them  for 1 week  , they,ll  need afew days to adjust after seperating                      and unless we get some better weather  , training is out of the question , esp the yearlings, more of these are lost or ruined  inthe first few races , my advice if in doubt leave them at home , missing aracepoint wont harm them

[schouwman71]

ill be ready,hopefully,well the cocks will be,not raced old birds for a few years due to a few things but feel i am ready this year.

i'll be ready but not sure if the birds will

[Tony C]

Cant remember a season where I felt I was ready, cant see why this one should be any different ;D

 

I think I'll be as ready as the next person but the weather will dictate whether I train let alone send to the first race(April 12th) or not. We're supposed to be in for a spell of below average temperatures and cold northerly winds for the next couple of weeks.

[S.D.B LOFTS]

Parted racers last friday should be ready by the 12th of april ?

[Guest Paulo]

Should just about do it have got birds flying a hour in the morning and a hour at night despite some of them being on big young un's. Last young uns will be weaned off inland race team tomorrow. Had 4 training chucks so far and birds have come well so just need to canker them and worm them get the ones I want for the arly races settled down on pot eggs and start playing about and I'll be ready.

 

Been a struggle through old birds see much more of a chew on than young uns still looking forward to my first season got a strong team of yearlings that were raced down the line with one prize winner on the team depsite them not being on the dark so hopefully they'll perform well.

 

Hope we get some channel in as well

having said that we have another full month till racing starts for us so should hopefully be a bit warmer then

[blackjack]

Fully agree Rose ive seen people  training in early march and then wonder why they

cannot get thier birds at the distance !.

[Guest spin cycle]

Well hope the weather improves for those who are thinking of making those early races it certainly doesnt look good for this weekend otherwise it looks like there are going to be quite a few birds in baskets that arent fit to be there and people wonder why quite often the first races turn out to be disasters its not the pigeons that are at fault it is the people who send them who have got to be there whatever the price  :-/

 

OUCH...point taken. at least a few of mine will be ready but no unfair/unnecessary  risks

[Guest]

my first race will be appleby on the 3rd of may. this will be the third race in my fed program, and looking forward to getting started

[Guest IB]

Our 1st race is a week earlier than I expected, Coldstream on 19th April. I'm off work that week and hope to get a couple of trainers in, but I wouldn't hold out too much hope with weather - its freezing cold here today, and it has been trying to snow - there is snow on Ochill Hills. It rarely gets warm before May.

 

Am I ready? No.  ;D

[madmaxlofts]

will be ready in 3 weeks for the new season hopefully
