it really depends what your after for the future m8.. Iv found that if im going for races from 100 to 250 miles, birds that havent races the previous yrs arent that reliable. But given time as 2 and 3 yr old birds, these pigeons treated the same way have been clocked from 400 miles.

I assume that since you say 4 was 1/4 of your team , that you have 12 left. If so, I would race 4, and train the other 8 out as far as I could, and keep them for yearlings next year, another thing you will need to consider is the sex of the birds, so you have what you need for next yearhttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif
