I stand by what I posted Tony, very few get reported.

Forgot to say that when I've reported a pigeon that's come in you'd be surprised how many aren't interested in arranging to collect or just say feed it up & let it go in a few day's.
15/15 eventually Neil. had 9 home (12.30) when I got home. 4 in the afternoon. 1 on Monday am and 1 Tuesday am cut under the wing.NeilA wrote: Wed Apr 15, 2026 6:47 pmYour returns ok from Saturday trainer/race DaveDiamond Dave wrote: Wed Apr 15, 2026 5:15 pm I know what you mean Dave almost every time mine go training they are affected by Percy but all have been lucky and escaped with minor injuries.
Something Ant said in a recent post about "used to be 1 in 9 chucks where they got hit but now it's about 1 in 5 but that's the way it is now" and we gotta accept that.
I don't know if the birds we are breeding are different in some way but I have 2 that have been lucky and got away and made it home with minor lacerations but they are quite eager and even keen to get out flying again after a couple of days
