gnipper 6,505 Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 This tippler cock is the laziest fecking thing I've ever seen, he does a lap then he's on a roof which messes up the birds still flying so on Saturday I chucked him out at the top of the road to A see if he.made it back and B get him some exercise and he found his way home ok. Yesterday about 5 I took him a mile or so out on the moss near ours and dumped him, he flew in the right direction so I thought he'd beat me home but the fecker just turned up now . At least he's had some exercise anyway. I might try him an extra mile and chuck him out at work if he doesn't perk up after his day trip. If that doesn't work he's ferret food anyway Its racing pigeons you take up the road, That will be the next step tipplers roller's out racing pigeons in No mate not trying owt else till I've sorted a proper kit out and flown them properly. There's some proper old weirdos at the local pigeon clubs too to put me off racing, where's my cage Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gnipper 6,505 Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 Keep em in too, summat nobbled my hen roller which was rearing a chick but luckily the cock is doing a good job on his own. I wont be breeding any more this year though as all my others are too young. Next time I breed I'll keep the parents in while their feeding young. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
