cheltenhamfancier Posted March 1, 2015 Report Posted March 1, 2015 Hey guys,I wonder can someone advise me, Is it possible to manage your young birds, by just realeasing at weekends, and maybe once in mid week? just trying to work out the logistics around my day job?
ovy1255 Posted March 1, 2015 Report Posted March 1, 2015 letting youngbirds out at w/ends is a bad gamble until they are trained and even then its dodgy--you need to get them out during the week and remember its light later during the season.

cemetary Posted March 1, 2015 Report Posted March 1, 2015 Every day except race days, but be careful of people training around you.
greenbar Posted March 1, 2015 Report Posted March 1, 2015 fly time very important for them.every day, bar race day,
cheltenhamfancier Posted March 1, 2015 Author Report Posted March 1, 2015 Thanks guys,Yea I figured it wouldnt be feasible but always good to ask you guys,Ive just finished putting my loft together, and hopefully picking up the birds next weekend, problem is I leave for work at 6am most days, and not back til 6pm usually, so I guess ill have to start on a Sat, while I have time to be around when I release them first, after that it will have to be morning or evening, What would be your preferences? letting them out in morning or waiting until the evening, as its begining to be still some daylight at 6pm now? Kevin
MIK Posted March 1, 2015 Report Posted March 1, 2015 my young only get out in evenin time and weekends...i am of the privilege of farthest to fly with dog leg in NIPA, so no probs on letting loose on race day. OBs have open hole, daylight till 5pm ...young out from 5.30 till 6.30/7.00 during week...then young have open hole Saturdays when no racing and always open hole on sundays...both till feed time at 5pm
