sapper756 Posted July 28, 2009 Report Posted July 28, 2009 Well folks what are your plans for your birds today? yesterday I took 49 youngsters for a 20mile toss and liberated at 8am, at 10am approximately 20 landed, then for the remainder of the day, single birds made their way back, still 8 short this morning. So today I intend to give them a rest, and settle for a flight around the loft. The weather here in Fife is a sunny morning. But back to training 2moro, back to the same liberation point as yesterday Enjoy your birds/day

Guest mick bowler Posted July 28, 2009 Report Posted July 28, 2009 Todays plans are This morning popped out to spend some time in the lofts. going shortly to get my ETS rings assigned for the youngsters. Just about to ring PJ Lofts to try and get some products delivered this afternoon. Birds will go training approx 25 miles today if the weather holds up - If they come well from the 25 mile toss today will put them up tomorrow to 35 miles tomorrow and Thursday. Just goes to prove that pigeon racing can be a full time job if you let it ;D No time to eat your cake then Chris? ;D Happy b'day!
