full moon or new moon

[ch pied]

Maybe the gravitational pull of the moon makes them fly higher?

WORTH A TRY I THINK

 

poss right speed,,, with pigeons, anything worth trying,, i have read about this in the past,, i think one of the main things are on pairing on a full moon , is that the the pairs can near enough see each other without fighting,  and gently fall in love    rather than abrubtly go mad at the appearance of the hen :-/, but thats only my opinion

[barlbymark]

i paired mine up on the full moon must bring the vanpire out in them one of my cocks nearly killed the hen lol

always thought the object was the pigeons treading on a full moon and laying eggs on a full moon and hatching on a full moon positive round o in the homing world wrote an article many years ago about it and thats what he was saying then

Hi i was wondering if any one knows if it is a full or new moon that is best suited when pairing up and also if you notice a difference in the youngsters

[just ask me]

i like mine to hatch on a full moon as the parents will feed through the night

dont know much about moons but always thought young hatched out early morning and parent birds always fed at night without the use of the moon

Well, full moon is just as it says on the tin, whole moon visible. A new moon has just a small crescent visible on the left? side.  But if its a night light you're after, best install one, cos the 4 phases can't last more 7 days, includng the full moon. And I think the birds feed by touch and movement, light or no light. Youngsters are blind remember for the 1st x 7 or so days.

not so if its to dark they don't feed as much as if there is a moon there is more light its not about the hatching date what im saying in there early life they will be fed through the night

 

also i leave corn for parents in boxes and they can find no problem
