I think that one of the most overlooked aspects of the pigeon sport (BY SOME) are the winter months, with reference to keeping it open, with events, shows, presentations, etc,club and FED shows during the winter months used to be part of the sport of "racing" pigeons but has fallen away,

I think too many fanciers molly coddle birds. Don,t get me wrong,I love my pigeons,but their bred to perform, and I expect it. If they don,t , they have no business on a perch and certainly not in the stock loft. Too many club members have poor results with mediocre pigeons and keep breeding the same.I can,t see the logic behind caring and feeding them.JMO.
