gooner Posted August 19, 2009 Report Posted August 19, 2009 would the heat contribute to the birds not flying as well as they have been round the loft
Guest southern and mason Posted August 19, 2009 Report Posted August 19, 2009 heat brings cocks in 2 form m8
REDCHEQHEN Posted August 19, 2009 Report Posted August 19, 2009 we've split our youngsters this week they've got raging hormone levels !!! the cocks are still only doing 20 minutes am - 30 minutes pm but the hens are tearing the skies out !!!
gooner Posted August 19, 2009 Author Report Posted August 19, 2009 i asked as last week my young uns were flying 45mins+ morning and nite and this week they are doing about 20 mins on both flys, there crap is fine all like marbles and they bare eating ok,was just worried they were coming down with somthing
gooner Posted August 19, 2009 Author Report Posted August 19, 2009 no not this week as car has gone wrong
gooner Posted August 19, 2009 Author Report Posted August 19, 2009 they did have a tough race on sat with some not getting libbed til 3.45 and the others libbede in a very strong south west wind
just ask me Posted August 19, 2009 Report Posted August 19, 2009 are they just pairing up may need to be seperated
gooner Posted August 19, 2009 Author Report Posted August 19, 2009 yes the cocks have started chasing the hens and a few have tried treading
blackdog Posted August 19, 2009 Report Posted August 19, 2009 yes the cocks have started chasing the hens and a few have tried treading thats your answer mate, mine have done the same, driving hens, they will just be keen on getting back in to loft, dont worry to much mate, mine done that 2 weeks ago, sent 18 to race, had 10 drop together.
gooner Posted August 19, 2009 Author Report Posted August 19, 2009 was getting worried cos every one else in club has had the dreaded sickness but mine have not but then mine had it not long after weaning

Guest pigeon82 Posted August 19, 2009 Report Posted August 19, 2009 the tough races will tire the birds also i am lucky if my birds will fly round the house for 20 mins now but i make sure they fly by training them if they dont want to fly they will fly to get home beleive me
