There's a way to race late breds most try to treat them like old birds that's wrong ,,worm wrote: Thu Sep 04, 2025 7:51 pm sad reality is 1 of them might be any good and might is stretching it as most are not worth it they look great but breed them in Feb and them same birds will destroy there later equivalent same year and next
Two race late breds I like 12 tosses between 9 n 12 weeks of age loft fly all winter long ,train them from spring onwards on nice days forget racing in April and early May just forget it OK there baby feathers ain't set up for cold weather racing u will lose them 100 percent now wait until late May about 7 races from end of old bird season and start racing them they will be brilliant some days n poor other days but you won't lose no more than you would yb racing in 2023 I had 32 late breds they raced 7 races and out of a possible 35 fed positions they won 26 fed prices and topped fed I started with 32 and had 26 left after 7 races this is how you race late breds ok lads.

If I was to race late breds again I would put lights on 24hr aday from when weaned until 1st January they will moult a flight every 14 days any flights left at beginning of January I would cut with scissors and Jan the 14th pull them flights and turn lights of n shut loft down by 1st march the birds would have a full wing and full body moult as well these would only be 6,7 months old but they will be big and strong big wing n full new body as well.
