I help a mate of mine out when he starts training and go up on race days

That's basicly what I'm doing hope one day I can get a garden big enough for a loft . I'm happy doing this at the moment because he has some top quality lambrechts

i think you are right there grunter it will take over your life if you want to be good at it. ive spent a few seasons on and off with fanciers as ive often thought about giving it ago myself. i consider myself a dedicated person with my running dogs but i just dont think i am dedicated enough to fly pigeons and do anygood. you need to eat sleep and breath pigeons to do well with them imo.

 

perhaps when i slow down with the dogs i might try a few pigeons.

Not a word wrong in your post Trigger. You forgot mention tyey are marriage wreckers and most top flyers are in loft partnerships .

In short they take over your life.

Lol but when your sat waiting on a Saturday morning you ring the lib line there up in a northly,so it's a hard day for them you work out the time in your head estimated time of arrival. The waiting game begins every pigeon that goes by your sat your looking hoping your heart beatin out of your chest, and then you see one on its own break and drop out of the sky like a stone, he or she is very nervous (the 1st one back normal is the rest just fall in I think it could be picking up on your tension lol) then in clock open box and sit back and watch them come home. Then the banter starts,so and so got one at 5 to, I think one went to so and so at ten to , lol off to the club and wait the result,the

longest hour of the day. Then 1st and your the winner by 5 mins and your top of the world man, then you get how is that breed what system you flown that on, I got one at ten but wouldn't come in lol .its a life been in pigeons, and redquail is right a home wrecker. Good luck
