snowy Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 which of your birds seem to be the most winners? cocks or hens? or does it go both ways? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loft Manager Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share 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.

johnnysfarm Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share 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.
