Handling birds

[Guest CS]

What are your feelings about handling racers?

Do you catch/handle them on a daily/weekly/monthly basis, or only when necessary ie. basketing or medicating?

the way there handled is the most important thing .my birds dont seem bothered been picked up on a daily basis either for training or racing i always say you could play football in my loft there not bothered .

 

ive seen birds in lofts you would need a net to get near them.

 

i think its down to the person looking after the birds that counts happy content birds are not scared by their owners ,

ive never seen a top fanciers birds crashing round the loft when you enter.
