UkPigeonRacing

Hi I currently have 20 racers in a small loft ( space limited) these pigeons are of various ages between 3 and 6 years old, I have joined clubs In the past but never actually raced.
just wondering what would be best for me with regards to racing, I have been told to get rid and start again (some birds have no rings) to just race cocks or hens, would I be able to race the birds I have.
Would I be able to split hens and just race them I would just like a small team, and to keep as simple as possible just some advice please,.

Hi Daz as already been said by others I can only agree with, but adding there is no right or wrong way to do anything with pigeons as any question/answer or advice will always be correct, what you need to do is look at everything and evaluate it all, sorry if that sounds confusing but you will see what I mean further down the line, I wish you all the very best and look forward to seeing some updates as you progress

Thanks for the reply, I'm not currently in a club last time was during covid, I have had a go a few times over the years but just never been quite ready for one reason or another, just like having pigeons but would like to have a go at racing,
The birds are let out but only a handful fly around 5 min or so the rest sit on house roof, would taking them a few miles be advised ,

Thanks for all the reply a lot to go with there cheers.
