Technically it's live now, I just haven't shared the link yet.

I'm just working a few bits out, and then will share with you all

Having a bit of trouble entering the progeny onto the stock pairs. Once I've entered one round it doesn't want to let me go back in and enter another round.
Entering the pigeons themselves is no problem.

No worries, that's the bit I'm currently working on now funnily enough!

Should have something sorted in the next couple of days!

Took a bit longer than I wanted, mostly cause I got distracted by other bits!

But this is now up and running

I went start a race result program for my YB's, but I don't race from Marlborough or Melton Mowbray.
I raced from Minyip, which is somewhere near the middle of nowhere.
You might have to add an option to put your own race points in.

Admittedly I did forsee that being an issue, but fortunately it will be an easy enough fix when I do add it!

A bit late looking at this link, I will give it a go at some point if I can.
Is it compatible with tablets or does it need to be a proper PC ?? Unfortunately I am very technophobic so don't get on well with this kind of thing lol
Good luck with it anyway mate, I hope it goes well for you.

It's compatible with PC, and Tablet/Mobile too!

I found myself using it on mobile while in the loft, or when on location training. Then adding more in-depth stuff on the laptop!

Murray wrote: Sun Jul 13, 2025 8:48 am I think it is very promising, Trev. I've put quite a few of my pigeons onto it.
But I was discussing it with Catherine.
I still write it all in my book as a backup.
So, really, what's the point?

I'm the same Murray, I have a 5 project book for every year since I have been racing and to be totally honest, I enjoy the 'record keeping as much as I do the racing.
I used the "trial" version and entered all my birds but then just found myself duplicating everything.
I'm not the quickest person on the phone stuff and don't really have the time to sit and enter all the details.
Might have another look at it in the close season when I will have more time.
Good luck with it Winfort - wish you every success.

In these days of mandatory form filling to satisfy DEFRA/APHA, record helping is now vital, the days of “I’ll count up what’s left at the end of the season and plan accordingly “ have long gone unfortunately, I don’t know if this could be of help with that?
By the way, I’ve yet to see any reports of Colombiformes falling victim to AI in droves, have I missed anything?
