Roundabout

[sean75]

does  anybody who flys roundabout put their cocks in a diffrent section from their nest boxes and the hens are in diffrent compartment so in the middle of them is their nest boxes and put cocks in on night of basketing same as u do with hens would it motavate a cock just a thought thx scott

[OLDYELLOW]

cocks need to own / defend there box so i think it be unwise to remove cocks from  there section imo

[carlsberg]

my cocks this season will be raced from the hen section and my hens will have the nest boxes due to only having 12 boxes and 17 cocks

totally agree wi mark,,,cock needs to b bonded to his box and by removing him to another section would spoil him as a widower

Try and get the video "Dual Widowhood" by Rick Mardis ,

it is a system he races and does very well with flying in the US,

I flew the system in early season and then re-paired for the channel and the birds flew very well over the water both cocks and hens but especially the cocks including 1st club saintes only bird on day , 6th fed only 7 on the day .

i know  people do it in middle of season so they can lock their hens up the cocks have already bonded they have had eggs reared y/b  before racing starts

i find hens fly very well on the roundabout more so than the cocks maybe its because they are kept away from the box's
