Agree Danny but I slso get as much out of the breeding then "testing" the results out of that breeding especially with the y.birds but I do like to "compete" with the old birds

That'll will be a very nervous time for me, meeting the members in the club, getting the birds race ready, also I have to get myself the clock system sorted out and get use to working that, plus hopefully do the birds proud with my loft management

Birds where let out at 9am this morning apart from the one that went missing during the week, got all my cleaning and fresh water in for the birds.
they never came back in the loft until 12pm, just thinking would it be good to let them out again later today or keep it to loft flying once a day ?

I used to do twice a day but some find once more than enough, same as most pigeon things down to personal choices and what suits, good to see going well

Thanks Buster, only asking as during the week with work I can only let the birds out once a day late afternoon, so wasn't sure if at the weekend I was to let the birds out twice a day would it throw the birds off in some way

Your birds may have got in with race birds this morning. We warned you about letting your birds out on a Saturday morning
Wouldn’t have done them any harm and I’m sure they would be quite happy to go out again this afternoon.
