dont no mate im getting ichy now bud as got 2 big feds with in a few miles from my lib wolverhampton at bath an wales north road at swindon just up road got to start letting some up other wise they just meet in middle and go with drag

transporter driver was telling me last night they have 20 minute intivules between each lib so gives the birds time to clear before another fed starts to lib

all the best.

You'll get a better race letting them up in temps of 10C rather than 6C, maybe waiting for it to get a tad warmer.

We have the same fools running our Federation,they made a rule that the birds haven't to be in the County till 1pm.

This I believe is because a certain few work Saturday morning.It didn't help me when I was on three shifts.

i think the nipa r just trying to make more money by holding it till later because more people will phone the lib line

[peterpau]

Warmer temperatures and clashing would be my guess (lib 'em later at this time of year for me)

Cant understand it either. We do have some haze here with the east wind so maybe waiting for it to clear?? Otherwise I dont know.

[marmite]

[stantheman]

klaus was it there first time libbed with a lot of birds?

[billt]

They are all unraced yearlings I think you said Klaus, must be a big shock on the transporter and being libbed with that number even though you've trained well, I'm sure they will work back in this nice weather, All the best Bill

Good point, always good to get a couple of training tosses with other birds to help teach them to break and also when you've only got a small team the shock to them of being thrown out of a crate with a few hundred others mustn't help them!
