If you are meaning training the same pigeons twice per day, I am not sure of the benefits to be had from doing this ...

 

I train my Natural pigeons myself, and when training I go twice per day. But mornings its cocks, and afternoons its hens.

 

At the end of a training  day I'm   shattered   .

when racing starts training stops unless they wont fly for at least an hour we may send midweek if the transporter is going

Only training once a day myself but had most of the birds l/b's included out to hermiston gait (approx 35 mls)

only train once a day as its about forty miles so would never send them there twice

 

 

and hermiston gate is 35 miles if you go in circles for ten miles

To me it sounds great if you like putting petrol in the car.

NOT FOR ME THANKS.

depends what races you are wanting to compete iin, ts certainly a bit early for twice a day if you are wanting to compete in the longer races later in the season. Then you can train them round the loft twice a day or even one toss in the morning and an hour round the loft at night no problems

i think if you are training twice a day you are only looking to win the early races and i would not be sending my  birds to 40 miles tosses still to COLD

Agreed on May thing; we might just get away with it on Saturday tho, wind drops & turns South again, high of 13C. Only problem - 'light rain'.

wouldnt train ob,s twice a day ,, they wouldnt  last more than a few races,,,,,,i find that most fanciers discuss training , but never discuss resting?  to  me , just as important

[mac1]

[me]

 

bad

 

"excercising" twice a day not a bad thing at the right time for the right length of time trust "me"

 

 

[mac1]

some well know flyers around my area train twice a day,alot of people dont as the cost of fuel is the killer

[pigeonpete]

in my opinion we start racing here to early mays better

 

dont see why anyone starts this early to be honest alot fairer weather in may (usually) and better weather towards end of september :-/

[carl]

I have never trained twice a day,,whats the point 2 x 20 miles,,,better off taking them on 1 x 40 mile toss if its miles you want..Just making more work in my opinion

nah i dont like the idea,i knew one guy who used to do this his losses were great and when visiting his loft one day the pigeons were litterally rocking on the perches he was going 75 mile twice per day. Mind you this was young birds!
