So sorry for you Ben >  All you can do is follow all the advice regarding stopping raptors and hope it works. Good luck mate

 

The aussie fliers use this method.

 

The Perry Green falcon deterer is a must for every pigeon racing loft in the world.

 

Perry Green encourages constructive interaction and tolerance between all pigeon racers and all natural predators.

 

PARTS LIST

 

50mm P/P Class 12 pipe x 1.5 metres

40mm P/P Class 12 pipe x 1.2 metres

50mm P/P f/f elbows x 2

50mm P/P end cap x 1

25mm Ball shut-off valve f/I x 1

50x25mm P/P reducing bush x 1

40x25mm P/P reducing bush x 1

25mm P/P to male-iron nipple x 2

Tyre valve threaded x 1

Pressure gauge (optional) x 1

 

 

Note: P/P = Pressure Plastic

 

ASSEMBLY

The Perry Green Falcon Scarer is very simple to build. The 50mm Chamber should be cut around 1.2 metres, but can be as short as a metre and still perform well. It is a matter of preference. The barrel should also be around 1.2 metres. Drill a hole for the tyre valve and attach it to the end-cap, before it is glued in place. When all pieces are arranged, prime and glue. Let the completed cannon sit for 48 hours at least, before filling with air, to allow the solvent to set or you will risk destroying the joints.

 

OPERATION

To operate the cannon, fill the air chamber to 50 p.s.i using an air compressor of some sort. An air gauge is useful, but an ordinary tyre gauge is okay too.

 

When pumped up, all you do is put the required projectile (a piece of fruit or a ball will suffice). Then brace yourself and turn the lever of the ball valve to the on position very quickly. Whoosh! Good luck.

Wow, that download makes very interesting reading especially the chaps comments as he seems to have solved his problem by investing in rollers. They outwit the hawks who give up rather than waste energy and he hasn't had any of his other birds taken since he started flying the rollers! Has anyone got rollers and, if so, have they managed to outwit the hawk?

 

I'm only a novice so any advice re-the most acrobatic birds would be welcome!

ye and we are all sick of seeing it happen to our own so no need to see anyone elses sad as it is

i agree sammy but hawk strikes on racing pigeons must be at a all time high how do you solve the problem i dont know  keep your birds in?  only let out when training. it is a problem that has to be addressed as it wont go away.

In the BHW 2005 Stud book there is a good article regarding living with falcons.
