loads of training plus race them on the dark

[Guest bakes]

peanuts and maize or hemp then get them on the darkness a darkness bird will win hands down to a natural bird as still got a full wing go and ask the best flyer in your club or fed that is constantly in top 3 each week i bet he/shesays they are on darkness only way to go nowif you wont to compete with ybs some might dissagree but how many darky are on the top of your print out each week i bet theres more darkness ybs than they are natural

 

all the best

Theres no probs movin them around tthis time on to darkness. Move them in the next week with dark hours between say 7 till 7 and look to remove darkness around 8th may weekend. Make sure any darkness system suits you. Darkness hours vary from fancier to fancier and consentrate on what suits your time.

             imo once u have moved yb to the yb loft never add any more

at a later date, fly the rest natural , i have always found my natural yb

do better in the early yb races. hope this helps. m yb are only 5/6

days old and the first will be put on darkness.

Sounds good to me but make sure the cocks you stop have gone down the road far enough(at least 100-150 JMO) or next year in my experience you will have to be gentle again or the go like snow off a dyke.
