always raced widowhood cocks untill this year now racing roundabout the last 2 weeks my 1st 10 birds have all been hens.

these hens had never been in a basket but for 2 training chucks at 12 miles before racing and had been used only as widowhood hens 3yr olds 2yr olds and yearlings none have raced untill this year

[Guest coxy]

[Chris Little]

Widowhood , just simply no comparison to a cock screaming home like a rocket to see his hen

I have been a friend of Marc De Vadder for almost 30 years, there are not many sprint fanciers better than him. He always races his sprint bird natural, normally with big youngsters 20-30days old. Remember the sprint in Belgium is 25-40miles and 60%+ of Belgian fanciers only fly this distance

i sent 22 hens and 20 cocks to this weeks race from cheltenham 107 mile i had 5 hens drop together to take 1st,2nd,3rd,4th,5th club 330 birds if u have more hens coxy, race em back to cocks (widowhood hens)

Firstly I suppose the question is, has anybody tried all the systems mentioned? and which in their opinion is the best?  Surely you don't know until youv'e trid it. I am deperately wanting to get into the celibate system with cocks for down the coast but there dosn't seem to be much information floating about on here or people are keeping quiet.
