I believe recently Dave has added these two bloodlines into his family, creating an even stronger gene pool

[paddymac]

Thats some introduction into an already winning family, their crossing well with the Buddle lines also Ryan.

Hi Ryan

Are you going to turn your current old bird team to south or continue on both routes

[Wiley]

Hi Ryan

Are you going to turn your current old bird team to south or continue on both routes

 

Hello mate

12 old birds will be tried on the south that have never ever had a toss that way to just test the south road and get a feel of the differences

[neila]

Cheers Ryan

I notice the birds you are getting in are real distance birds , don't forget the Bicc have loads of 250 to 400 mile type races which could well suit your family of birds that you race north

[Wiley]

100% right mate just want to try and cover all angles if possible

It's strange when you swop birds

I changed from south to north this year and won the fed with a hen that scored many times for me south yet also had a hen that had a 3 rd and 6 th fed that never scored at all on the south and was only kept due to being paired to a decent cock and they way she was in the hand etc

Some seem to benefit from the change

Terry Haley results doing similar interested me also mate, he’ll race birds south all year then send them to a north road race and vise versa and does very well

[neila]

Very true

Be interesting to know if he trains the ybs around the clock , or on set north and south route I know he sends ybs both ways but wonder how he trains them leading into the season

[Kyleakin Lofts]

My best season on the south, they went south every 2nd week. Every other week they had a short race from the north.

[Wiley]

Watching a video he trains them on there line and just does the switch drastically

[neila]

Hi mate

Does he train south then switch them north?

 

When I raced south I trained my ybs south but once the birds had one south road race the following year as yearling I only went north due to the time , I never had my clock set for the inland but over the water they came well as I lived away from the loft they had a hopper of beans and three or four feeds of Gerry and fats prior to marking one year they were in the top 20 of the combine in the four water races I sent to the year before they had a 3 rd and 4 th combine. Now I have more time and race on the north I wouldn't dream of taking them to far off the line I want them to hit on race day and feed set amount twice a day and no beans after Sunday , pretty much the same pigeons

[Wiley]

Hi mate

 

Yes will be raced and trained south all year and then sent to a North Road race

 

 

Next Thursday will see me and Dad visiting Mark Bulleds loft to hopefully learn about how his transition was from north to south, and to see his fantastic family of birds
