help with hens

[rick]

can anyone offer me some advice pls. i grew up with pigeons but my dad was more of a pigeon lover than racer. after recently setteling down and getting a place of my own i got the pigeon bug big time. i bread some babies of pigeons i managed to beg and borrow. unfortunatly i lost a lot of them and am only left with hens, they have had a few races this year. and i am trying a sort of semi roundabout system using old stockcocks,. but i cant get them going.any suggestions please?

give them a box each and if you want a basic celibate system send me your email in a message,, we race celibate hens and one has won 3 x 1sts and 2 x 1st section fed this year,, she is also in the running for her 3rd 1st section fed.. the thing you have to watch is that they don't pair,, ours are now locked in their box each day,, and they fly for fun,,

 

best of luck
