Peckedhen Posted June 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 LOL - you wont want these if you're going to race Paul - they don't come straight home, they've found somewhere nice to hang out for a few hours before they return!! Not only that, but they have taught the younger birds to do the same! : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peckedhen Posted June 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 Here's the baby that wasn't keeping up with her nestmate. Still small but very feisty - pecks and wing-slaps me if I invade her space! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmy white Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 wow ,some photos really beautifull pigeons,and lofts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiley Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 These are really beautiful pigeons,would you ever try and put the pigeons in the race basket, or you jus keeping them for around the home,they are truly lovely birds and would be interesting to see how they race as if you read the rp and homing world some people do really well from the long distance with white pigeons,ive never had or bred a white in my loft so i wouldnt know how they fair against the other colours.But pecked hen they are a true credit to you,you have a nice set up aswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peckedhen Posted August 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Thank you Wiley. I'm not sure if I can cope with the stress of racing! I've taken their training very cautiously, determined not to loose any but, a couple of weeks ago I sent them on training toss with NE Lancs Fed. The weather closed in and I had only three back from 17 - I tell you, I was worried sick about them - I couldn't eat or drink - eventually the torrential rain stopped and one by one they returned but, it's supposed to be fun isn't it? It's not my idea of fun!! I'll have to toughen up and not get so attached to them if I'm going to race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnysfarm Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 Nothing wrong with just enjoying your pigeons. try not to get to many it can become a job. I wish I would have taken this advice myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldguy Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 My nephew is training to be a game keeper and lives in a very rural area which has a large population of assorted hawks, along with his array of ferrets gun dogs etc he keeps a few free flying fantails...... the hawks never (as yet ) take them down, but yet the fields are covered in the remains of wood pigeon and ferals.
