andrecrock Posted July 30, 2009 Report Posted July 30, 2009 I must be the worst fancier out!!!! Gave a mate off mine my y/b team to toss on his way home tonight,i normally only train east to west.But we are at Salisbury this weekend that's slightly north east,and seeing he lives up that way i thought it might be good for experience.He phoned me a min ago to say he took them 50 mile and only lib ed at 7. Wat is the chance of them getting back tonight,or have i not got enough faith in my birds? :o

Wat is the chance of them getting back tonight,or have i not got enough faith in my birds? :o don't worry about being daft when birds are concernd we have all done stupid things i once let the birds up 40 mile toss sun splitting the trees on the road back hail stones as big as golf balls all the way home got the birds over 2 days they had no wattles pure pink and lumps on there heads
b.massey Posted July 30, 2009 Report Posted July 30, 2009 Think they'll be ok mate.... Dont think it will take 2 hours 30 mins for 50 mile. You'll have them drop any time now. 8.15 on wards. I know plenty fanciers who train late to get birds going. You'll be fine
sapper756 Posted July 30, 2009 Report Posted July 30, 2009 You should get them 2night m8, however those that don,t make it 2night, should be there in the morning, good luck

Frazer Posted July 30, 2009 Report Posted July 30, 2009 Andre after your maiden win last week im surprised by your lack of confidence keep us informed when you get them they will be there,by the way we are going sunday now which is good because the forecast is better.
BANDIT Posted July 30, 2009 Report Posted July 30, 2009 GOOD LUCK WITH GETTING THEM BACK, ID SAY YOU WILL GET MOST TONIGHT AND AFEW IN THE MORNING. THEY WILL LEARN PLENTY TONIGHT AND SORT THEM OUT.
