Yes mate. Apart from the 3 that died you wouldn’t know anything had been wrong.
They flew for 4 hours on Thursday morning but not through choice. While out they started work on the house right beside my loft. They had a radio blaring and were pulling down an old conservatory and using jack hammers. The birds didn’t come down until they stopped for lunch. I did lose one youngster and surprisingly haven’t seen a 2 year old hen that was in with them. The others though showed no sign of any problems as far as they weren’t gaping or anything when they did come down.
Back just enjoying club racing for the time being.

Sounds like most are over it now. Some took longer than others, most lost the odd ones. One member who does keep a lot of pigeons had the ones he had die over a 5 day period. At least the ones I lost were all in one day.

Good to hear all the members got over it mate. Not a nice thing.

Good to hear that it seems to cleared through Andy, and good that the surviving birds are doing well.
I hope the building works don't go on too long for you.
