Nice video, Adam. I think it is just coincidence they have 11 ff and there is nothing, related to genetics. Also could you please make an update of the barless project and also are you up to breeding your rec opal spread hen? Best of luck in the race season.
Another thing I picked up is that those babies were bred during the moult?! My bird produced poorly during this moulting season, I doubt those babies will amount anything. So I thought maybe it was a moulting season problem but now I am questioning their parenting skills...big question, so birds produce normally during moult and in winter?
The eleven flights in the wing of a racing pigeon is regarded by European Fanciers as a fault.Why because it creates more drag on the wing beet during flight? Reducing spaces in the last four flight feathers. Similar too human sprint swimmers closing there fingers on the hand as they stroke there arm through the water.
Nice video Adam thanks. Let me know if you figured out how to breed 11 flights. I bred a baby this year with 11 flights on the one wing but the parents only have 10 flights. Will appreciate it if you can let me know
I know nothing about the hobby. I want to get into it tho racing birds. I noticed you have a fan tail just hanging out around the loft. Is there a reason for that? Do they cross breed? Or do you just like having them around?
Hi Adam, you should work your pigeons call them in and then toss them. That way they will be a lot more keen to get home and therefore should take a more direct path home.
Have you thought of taking them on tosses in that area on the map that they are not flying through. Maybe you have. I don't know. I have always thought of that. Especially at a bit longer distances than this. Depending on your race route for the season and the direction they will be coming in from. It's a thought.
Hey Adam, thank you for the update on. I bred a black and indigo check from a pair of black cock and Ash spread hen. I initially thought the indigo was a cock but it started pairing to a cock and I got confused alittle. Today with your genetic explaining, I am certain it is a hen🤠
Thanks Adam that was very interesting
Good observation on the 11 feather gene
Good stuff Adam
Nice share greeting from Indonesia 🇮🇩👍
many has had 6 tosses 4 at 1.5klmand 2 cat 6 klm... your birds are getting more fitter everday and they are going well
Can u make a video about blue grizzles and how to breed one
I didn't know pigeons could have extra flights! Would that make them fly faster with more power in the downward stoke???
I am a subscriber who enjoys watching in Korea. I always support you. It would be helpful if the Korean language could be set for one subtitle.^^♡
I will try to put Korean on the future videos!
@@AdamArcherPigeons I am also raising some race pigeons in Korea. Thank you. I will always support you.

I wont be doing much more breeding until at least July. My heterozygous barless "hen" unfortunately turned out to be a cockbird.
@@AdamArcherPigeons Wow such a turn around. Also fid you get any babies fron the amber pair

I'm not interested in it from a performance point of view, this mating was merely to research the inheritance of the trait.
Did you get that pied back after falcon was around
Which one was that?

The fantails are "trappers" or "droppers", their job is to encourage the race birds to land and trap in quickly
tHE ONE THAT DIDNT COME BACK WHEN THE HAWK WAS AROUND I THINK BLUE BARR PIED
From months ago? Yes it is back

Wait til you see what happened on the next toss haha :P
@@AdamArcherPigeons is it good. That's my guess they come straight home

11 flights mean nothing at all no better or worse than 10 flights
Exactly what I said. I'm breeding to figure out the inheritance of it, not to have it breed faster pigeons.
