Kyleakin Lofts Posted February 9, 2018 Author Report Posted February 9, 2018 Like all things pigeon, what we have is an opinion. Opinions vary just as loft locations vary. The UK has a diverse landscape and weather conditions. BOP will populate areas that suit their needs, our pigeons populate the area we put them into. Once free to fly, our pigeons will make up their own mind and either stay or go, race home or dawdle, find a better home. I have often heard it said that they don't know how far they have been sent; it doesn't matter whether you let them live in a palace or a hovel, etc.Like in Big Brother you decide, when released our pigeons decide.

Roland Posted February 9, 2018 Report Posted February 9, 2018 If pigeons were absolutely wild they wouldn't live in such a location, I think we must all put our minds into thinking how the pigeon thinks and adjust accordingly - migrating birds are of course subject to nature tooth and claw - we as fanciers have to get away from thinking we can control everything - obviously we can't when to comes to falcons and loft near quarry's. John C That is a proven myth and not correct. Nowhere in even a smidgen. The BBC, amongst many others, have documented and proven that BOP can't and don't frighten pigeons away from anywhere. Coastal or towns. Best ever done is to move them on / off for 100 or two yards then they go back. Often thought John is far removed from the real world. And still do.
