A bit of a dilemma
That was quick and good goingTrev wrote: Thu Jan 18, 2024 9:14 pm Two of the pairs are definitely settled together and I've had one pair out in the loft this afternoon, I'll try the other pair out tomorrow, the other two pairs still aren't quite sure yet.

Hope all goes well mateTrev wrote: Fri Jan 19, 2024 9:47 pm It's been a successful day, I've got 3 out of the 4 pairs coming out of their boxes nowThe fourth pair still weren't showing any interest in each other and the hen has been looking more like a cock today so I decided to select a different mate. After going through several options I settled on a little late bred grizzle out of my 2nd Club Perth bird crossed with his Daughter who also flew Perth. He is a 6 year old Crammond/Langstaff pigeon, I didn't start racing him until he was 3 in which time he has been pretty consistent over all distances as has his Daughter (the Dam) who is now a 4 year old, they are both South Road pigeons turned North.
Funny how some birds just click as these two clicked immediately so hopefully I will get them out tomorrow as well.

Going really well Trev, good luckTrev wrote: Sat Jan 20, 2024 6:14 pm Well I've managed to get the last pair out today which I'm very pleased about
Why is it though that you always get one Cock bird who insists on taking over two nest boxesSo unfortunately I've had to shut that pair back in for now until the others are a bit more confident and willing to fight for their boxes, hopefully it won't take too long

Going well mate, shame about the broken onesAndy wrote: Thu Jan 25, 2024 8:01 pm All my widowhood’s are on eggs, first ones just starting to hatch. The naturals are a bit different. One pair broke their eggs so waiting for them to go back down. The old hen is only sitting one egg, 2 pairs are sitting eggs. 2 other pairs are paired up but haven’t laid.
