Re: Height.

There’s a lot we don’t know. I love seeing mine go really high. They certainly do that when seeing off a BOP. The wind can certainly be at different speeds at different heights. Occasionally you can even see the clouds going in different directions and speeds at different altitudes. I remember many ...

Re: Ybs

I would want mine to be ranging. I think it’s important that they do before starting training. I’m not very happy with mine this year so far. They were January bred and don’t seem to fly much at all yet even though they are 3 flights up. Having said that I have to let them out mid afternoon and go b...

Re: Glastonbury FC

Impossible to judge Andy I don’t know how your going to select I guess just based on your loft records The cocks will hopefully have all 12 races of the old bird program. It will then be a case of going through them and seeing which ones have performed best throughout the season. Possibly taking aw...

Re: Glastonbury FC

Re: Glastonbury FC

While it sounds like you are in a good, sound club, it is a shame that you can't get some distance into those pigeons. You spent years working on a family that would fly a distance, and now you have them on widowhood and inland racing, there's no distance! Never mind, you are racing pigeons, and th...

Re: Glastonbury FC

Good to see they are coming well, Andy. The system seems to be working. Just gotta get them going a bit quicker...... I’m happy with the system. The cocks are keen and trap very quickly.
