Fitness In Birds ?

[R.A.M.C.63]

Hi fokes, Lot of top Fanciers on here so i would lik to ask ALL Basic members how they read the

fitness of birds, how often do you get it Wrong,( think this bird spot on 4 ur 1st bird only 4 it not to show or be one ur back markers,

am especialy intrested in keel, skin,scales,colour?,etc

we want clean tight skin, scale free, pinkish, but while waiting 4 this condition to come,

training will help, feeding, do you race birds short races to bring this on ?? while still bit scaley ? maybe blueish skin ? coz was thinking desired condition mite not come till ur 200-250miles out in program, so do you jump them in first race 200+ cheers for any pointers, never know fanciers looking 4 answers might glean somthing from replys, Ronnie
