Good luck Devo

The returns have been pretty good compared to some one lofts !!

I see in the Cotswold Valley one loft they had 94 fanciers enter 519 birds, 37 birds made the Final and only 18 of those have made it home. It sounds like they had a disaster the same week that most organisations seemed to have heavy losses.

Yes Trev, i have to say. Returns have been very good, when you consider they never had much training. I would say that is the downfall of this OLR.

The German classic OLR race 4, will take place Thursday 12/09/2024. It looks like 911 youngsters will be racing for a place in the final race, which will take place on the 21/09/2024. I have 2 youngsters left in the comp, so i am hoping for the safe return of my youngsters in tomorrow's race.
