[Guest newcomer]

:)Hi ya, sorry to have taken time in replying I am having difficulty in getting a reply to you. The birds in question will be my new stock birds when the time comes.

to be honest mate get something breed out of them before you try to break them nothing worse than spemding ya hard earned then having nothing to show from it, as you may loose a few trying to break them

if you have good stock birds why try to brake them.i know of stock birds getting out after a year in stock loft with a big out side aviary never seen again.

 

if you have to brake them make sure the birds can see their surrounding area from say a cage on a landing board. let them raise their 1st round of yb,s making sure birds are going up and in to cage daily to look around daily .when the hen lays her 1st egg from the 2nd round you could try letting the cock out with other birds to try and keep him at your place. the place you got your stock birds from if t is close to you let the previous owner know that you are trying to brake the cock that day.their is nothing worse than a bird you have sold or given away coming back to his or her old loft and getting in and trying to claim back old nest box eggs get smashed or yb,s killed. if the bird goes back to old loft ask if previous owner does not feed or give water to the bird and get it back as soon as you can.best of luck .this is only my opinion as most of us differ on what we do with our birds. hear is a wee tip when learning about racing pigeons ask a good few good fanciers their opinion on say racing yb,s.you will get a good few different answers .then look at the things they agree on that is what you will find works .that also goes for all things to do with racing. best of luck
