snowy Posted August 28, 2005 Report Posted August 28, 2005 which of your birds seem to be the most winners? cocks or hens? or does it go both ways?
Loft Manager Posted August 29, 2005 Report Posted August 29, 2005 Out of the four races we've had so far, hens 3, cocks 1. It all depends how your racing them, as to which sex takes to the system the best. Last year with old birds hens were the ones that always came for me, supose it was just the way I was racing them.
speedbird Posted August 31, 2005 Report Posted August 31, 2005 this year think its been 50/50 however only race 8hens i do like racing hens though cant beat a hen 10/14 days siting can & will beat the cocks if fit though i put mine on widowhood first of all to get em fit then pair up later in season however won on that too

jimmy white Posted September 2, 2005 Report Posted September 2, 2005 IN THE LONGER YB RACES , I USUALLY, FOUND THAT THE HENS DO BEST [OVERALL]
johnnysfarm Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 I have a young pair that I left on eggs to long. Both hatched and they have done a great job raising the two babies, even though they have been stressed with babies the two of them are always the first ones home from the training tosses.

speedbird Posted May 9, 2006 Report Posted May 9, 2006 now the distance increases time to pair the hens up as always have results this way as still have there fitness still fly an hour in morning & later go training & still trap on this system give the cocks run for there money!!!
