billt Posted May 7, 2010 Report Posted May 7, 2010 He is in good order nice looking bird to.This happened to me a few years back, a Bl. Pd. hen, all white flights so I stamped every flight and sent to the next race, 1'st club, in again next week, 1'st club, in the next week 2'nd club and then I thought why am I taking it out on this bird so I stopped her and she went on to be a useful breeder

jimmy white Posted May 7, 2010 Report Posted May 7, 2010 Just had this pigeon return after 3 years came in thought it was a stray fed&watered took up the road he was back before me had a look at my 07 ring list and hey its my bird with a race rubber on what would you do with him ?.Thanks for looking. looks like someone has been racing it [with rubber ring on], maybe worth keeping it,, who knows, where ever it came back from,the loft may no longer be there , maybe the reason for it returning, i remember i had a bird return after 6 years [lost in a race from worcester as a yearling] never said much for its racing ability, but boy what a memory lol true
pjc Posted May 7, 2010 Report Posted May 7, 2010 I don't supose whoever has been racing it has stamped it with there number to ring and thank them?
Tony Posted May 11, 2010 Author Report Posted May 11, 2010 I sent him to a race the weekend he came back.
OLDYELLOW Posted May 11, 2010 Report Posted May 11, 2010 I sent him to a race the weekend he came back.as long as hes coming keep him going
Tony Posted May 15, 2010 Author Report Posted May 15, 2010 Had a good very good day with him came first club.
OLDYELLOW Posted May 15, 2010 Report Posted May 15, 2010 1 mistake does make fer a bad pigeon , well done keep it up
billt Posted May 15, 2010 Report Posted May 15, 2010 1 mistake does make fer a bad pigeon , well done keep it up There's something about these lost birds that return, always worth giving a chance
OLDYELLOW Posted May 15, 2010 Report Posted May 15, 2010 There's something about these lost birds that return, always worth giving a chancewell its either been in wrong loft and held captive or its been injurded and rehabilitated , but it knew where home was so i guess wrong loft nowt wrong with its abilty to find home or win ,its just a shame some folk keep these birds in when in fairness 9/10 would rather give bird away than pay for its return
peterpau Posted May 26, 2010 Report Posted May 26, 2010 If he's been missing 3 years I bet he's done some good for some one. Stock or Bin for me no point racing him cos he'll go back
