is pigeons a family thing

[shaker143]

My husbands father kept pigeon when he died my husband and his brother took over. Now my two sons have pigeons ,they fly against there dad and uncle you should hear them when they get together. So i do think pigeon racing runs in families.

THINK YOU ARE OUT OFF ORDER WITH THIS IF I WAS GETTING UP AT 5/30 TO DO ALL YOU ARE DOING I WOULD BE LOOKING FOR MY BIRDS TO DO A BIT MORE THEN YOU ARE GETTING OUT OF THEM

[Guest]

My Grandfather started it off way back in the early 1900's. Then my dad with my Uncle Jack. Then this was followed on by my two brothers, and then me myself joined in with them around 1983 after getting sick of seeing Sunderland pummelled week in and week out! I still like to go to the Sunderland games now, but only if it doesn't interfere with the birds!

is pigeons with you guys a family hobby or just for you, in my house we all love the birds me my wife and three kids. we all take part in everything to do with the sport. on race day we have a family barbie while waiting for the birds to arive home and we all have the most pleasure in watching our birds arive on the loft we make it a great day for all. do any one else do a simler thing or are we just a mad family lol.
