[sapper756]

I noticed yesterday quite a lot of empty perches for some fliers after yesterdays racing, so how many of those missing have turned up today?

None for me still 13 to come from 29 Selby so much for giving them two or three races as young birds and keeping them and racing them as yearlings they have to be tested as young birds no more mister nice guy

[Whats it called Cumbernauld]

Ton,

 

You never said a true er word mate tried and tested. Young birds must be sent in order when they make there mistake, they are at the right age to learn by that mistake.

 

Experience yea canny whackit

[bullcock]

Sent 40 with the Glasgow/renfrewshire convoy I had 14 widowhood birds for 14:00 and 1 later my naturals came home good and steady by the end of the day I was waiting on 1 out of 18 naturals and 7 out of 22 widowhood birds ( still waiting on 6cock out of 12 sent) so the ones that got home were home very fast and the rest are still flying?

The widowhood birds are so blinkered that they fly hard and fast and sometimes don't think about what direction they are going in.

I think they clashed and the ones that got caught up with other feds have been carried away at speed were as the naturals take the time to think where they are going.

This happens to us every year at this time between Tow Law & Weatherby 130 - 180 mile? I think there are too many Feds in these areas around this time all going in different directions, the widowhood birds home in good time but the losses are far higher than the naturals.
