Where

[NeilA]

Are you racing from this weekend
I am at 112 miles north rid
Anyone changed their methods or birds motivation?

I Changed to a different feeding system I’m not sure why only with a view to a few more middle distances races
Should it bomb after a cry Sunday we will be back on the normal system in time for the main races
Mike’s looked at it and see’s no reason it can’t work but sprint racing could suffer
So I take that on board
Never seen my birds eat this volume

Where is everyone and what you trying out if at all

For someone who's won sooooo many 1st Federations as you have in the last 5-6 years people might find it odd that you're changing and experimenting with a different feeding regime.

Thing is, you've set yourself different goals this year, and to add another layer of complexity to it, you're trying it with an unknown team of pigeons too really. So that requires a different approach

The delay of 24 hrs will only help you this week, and I'm optimistic of a big performance from you

Thank you Mike it’s very kind of you

I look at fanciers with drops each week and think I need to try to get to that level I was close on my old feeding but not week in week out I had 7 drop to win the fed in old birds and 5 . I have closed the 18 cocks up in 11 mins from 157 miles but I need to do better snd more consistent with it
plus I have a eye to 200-400 at some point so I need to find a way to be competitive at sprints and have a go at the others with the same pigeons with a up and down race programme
So I’m hopeful this change will do both
It’s a finding out season for me
I Did the little change you suggested for today and will keep to that
The pigeons feel light which I like and then I think how are you do you feel light when you have stuffed yourselves for 7 days
So it’s new to me
I’m still weighing before and after but after to only to find a pattern they are adopting

I've got some thoughts on a few of these Neil

Happy to discuss here or via the alternative platform - your shout

Interested to know them

Do you wanna do ‘the drop’ or the 400 ml thing first ?
