Paired last tuesday the cocks are busy building away this morning with pine needles although they have nest felts aswell so shouldnt be to long around hopefuly 1st lot of eggs since 1996 looking forward to it :D. Nice to be back in the sport, and to be welcomed the way i have on here with new friends. So here is me saying thank you to Pigeon Basics Archie and its members for such a welcome because if i didnt stumble across this site i probably would never have started back up again. regards Brian

let my racers together on Sunday as they hens were starting to go rank. I will be racing these dry as I have a fair stock team and not too much space. 20/25 youngsters will do me this season. I have over 50 OBs to race :animatedpigeons:

 

I will pair the stock pigeons in a couple of weeks ^_^
