tedweb Posted February 4, 2007 Report Posted February 4, 2007 Hello all, My name is Ted. I'm about to start racing in Tasmania, Australia, after breeding for the last two years. I've started training my birds and have already lost 6. Is this normal? Looking forward to any advice from experienced fliers!
