JohnQuinn Posted November 8, 2010 Report Posted November 8, 2010 Do you's have your eyes on 1 or more of your young birds and yearlings that you think will be the next star of your loft??. Most years i speculate as to the merits of my Yb's and Y'lings and get my eye on one for the future. This year i had an un raced/trained 09 Latebred Blue Ck that i raced out to Leicester, 248mls, he wasn't in the clock and nor was he ever last home , just steadily in the first 6/10 doos to the loft and never made any mistakes.I think this Ck will do well next season from over 300 miles, he has followed the same pattern as previous latebred pigeons in my loft who have subsequently went on to score well for me, this is why i have my eye on him. What bird/s in your loft do you have your eyes on and why???
rasbull Posted November 8, 2010 Report Posted November 8, 2010 Much the same as you Jonn. I raced the majority of my young birds out to 200 miles and they did fairly well. I had one a w/f blue cock from my number 1 hen, who was badly attacked by a cat on my last training toss prior to the 1st race. He recovered from this and then went back in the training crate and on his first toss this time returned hawked! I allowed him to recover all season and finally managed to get him into the very last race of the season and he was my 3rd bird home. He has turned into a cracking cock and this is the one I have high hopes for next season. As he is quite accident prone if he can avoid being runover, or mugged on his way home in the early season training tosses I believe he will go ok! :lol:
