@@howtotrainyourpigeon I caught and called in a bird 2 days ago. The bands caught our attention so I just googled birds with bands. Amazing, 2 hours after reporting the bird was picked up and I met some great racing guys.
Great video as always and watched the racing pigeon TV video aswell it was very enjoyable and your a very good host well done you should be very proud of yourself for everything your doing for the pigeon fancy in general
well done mate good to see you progressing in the right direction. much better trapping 👍 not long for your 1st fed win 😊 it's a unbeatable feeling.i was spoilt i topped it 2 weeks running at first. atb
With the widowhood system pick one out that suits you and follow it as best you can .if its a proven system it will cut a lot of the guess work out .good luck mate
What happens to lost racers . Well some end up on farm buildings some go to town centres many get killed by b o p and some go into other lofts so it is a hard life for pigeons but if we put our bit effort in they often can be better pigeons we must work hard with them if they wont fly at home round loft no worries change corn to 80 per cent diet mix and 20 per cent racing mix and train them at least four times a week don't need to go to far either good luck with them .
one turned up at my house this week dropped right next to my dad who was visiting He use to race pigeons hes in his 80s now its been back 3 days in a row even tapped on the window at the Mrs lol
V perch BOX perch POLE perch WIDOW HOOD BOX HEN BOX standing on the floor, doesent matter what the bird is standing on, if you handle them enough daily from a young age and not grab them real fast, they should stand there and let you pick them up and hold them gently with out them needed to be squeezed and them resisting you, when you watch all of DAN'S videos you can see he doesent handle them much, and when he does hold them, he looks like some1 who only started in pigeons a few weeks, very novice like, very awkward even, only pigeons that should be a handful is stock birds because there not used to being handled anymore after being stoped racing a few years, yes you will allways get 1 or 2 baby's and yearlings and 2/3 year old that just don't like being picked up and handled, but not the whole team, BOX them f0r racing and training the way DAN does that's fine, but between that they should be handled daily 2 see there OK and haven't any lumps or bumps on them especially there keel bone or wings. As baby's a few peanuts allways does the job 2 gaun there trust and not be nervous when you step into the loft
Once your birds are used to widowhood they will trap easily. I have not had pigeons for years but I flew on widowhood cocks only and one good bird won a lot of club races for me, biggest problem was keeping him going week after week which I never managed
Less than 6 hours on the wing you should race them again the following week. My pigeons will race the first 10 races straight. 20 birds go every week, the rest of the birds get training tosses.
Go in every loft on the allotments get chucked out of every loft on the allotments without any one bothering to report it because 9 times out of 10 the owner doesn't want it back.
I NEVER LET OR TOOK MY BIRDS ANY WHERE ON THERE OWN LET OUT WITH GOOD OLD FAITHFUL BIRDS UNTILL THEY COULD GET HOME FROM 50 MILES THEN IF THEY GOT LOST GOOD RIDDANCE NOT WORTH KEEPING HELPED WITH NUMBERS IN LOFT OLD SLOWER BIRDS FIRST THEN THE FASTER ONE'S
Why keep so many birds twenty is plenty for club racing, very good loft position for NRCC racing so instead of making a hobby such hard work give the birds a chance to prove themselves the obviously that's not going to happen until the numbers and the food are cut down.
DID YOU NOT FIND A HGV DRIVERS TO TAKE YOUR BIRDS KNOWING THAT YOU ARE STRUGGLING FOR TIME KIDS + FAMILY £25 A POP FROM 100 150 MILE OR FERTHER WOULD COST MORE IN JUICE
You really are quite funny....that dance was terrific 😂
Great content as usual and nice to see your hard work paying off.
Well done 👍
I'm well known for my rhythm in these parts

Great video as always, great result in the club and Fed well done mate.
Hope you get all the Y/Bs back soon. Keep the videos coming great to watch
Thanks. Bizarrely had another return this morning 👍🏼

Good to see you on the result sheet upwards and onwards , hopefully some more young birds drop in for you and another good video .
Enjoying your videos tremendously!
Thanks 👍🏼
Great video as always and watched the racing pigeon TV video aswell it was very enjoyable and your a very good host well done you should be very proud of yourself for everything your doing for the pigeon fancy in general
Very nice video and well done for keeping at it you have put the time in to them this week 👌
Hello, did you consider using a multicolored picket type fence on the loft roof
well done mate good to see you progressing in the right direction. much better trapping 👍 not long for your 1st fed win 😊 it's a unbeatable feeling.i was spoilt i topped it 2 weeks running at first. atb
Yes mate when they flying very high it's because there's a hawk around, pigeons fly high to get above any hawks in order to stop hawks diving
❤❤❤❤
Very enjoyable video as always.
If you get yourself a drone you can keep the birds off the neighbours roof, plus could be used for footage for your videos.
I use one occasionally for filming but reckon the neighbours would have questions 😂
With the widowhood system pick one out that suits you and follow it as best you can .if its a proven system it will cut a lot of the guess work out .good luck mate
Do you fly from different directions ?.

@@howtotrainyourpigeon Ah ok well if ya try different directions it gives em a look around ta find the line!

It would do no harm to leave some old birds or stock birds out with your young birds. I do it with mine it's saved me loosing a few over the years.
Love the videos!
one turned up at my house this week
dropped right next to my dad who was visiting
He use to race pigeons hes in his 80s now
its been back 3 days in a row
even tapped on the window at the Mrs lol
The trouble with V perches the pigeons are a pain to catch best have individual box perches much better easy to catch them 😮
Completely agree

I USED TO STACK 3 BOX HIGH WITH ONE ROD HOLDING THEM BACK SO THEY ALL CAME OUT SAME TIMES

I don't like v perches, I use flat perches mostly due to the pigeons ability to "lay down", on them getting full rest that way
I would suggest a wire basket on a pole in front of the loft to help young birds for trapping training
They are trapping well😎
Loveing the vid and im only started
Glad you liked it
Who ever told you you font need to train old birds once they are racing is wrong. I bet they are training thier own birds.
Go in every loft on the allotments get chucked out of every loft on the allotments without any one bothering to report it because 9 times out of 10 the owner doesn't want it back.
Great result stay positive
I NEVER LET OR TOOK MY BIRDS ANY WHERE ON THERE OWN LET OUT WITH GOOD OLD FAITHFUL BIRDS UNTILL THEY COULD GET HOME FROM 50 MILES
THEN IF THEY GOT LOST GOOD RIDDANCE NOT WORTH KEEPING HELPED WITH NUMBERS IN LOFT OLD SLOWER BIRDS FIRST THEN THE FASTER ONE'S
Are you sure it wasn’t a peregrine as they were shooting all over the place?
What I saw was a sparrowhawk but apparently there's a pair of falcons around so could have been
Sparrow hawks won’t bother them in flight. It’s the peregrine that chases them.
Zoolander sounds like me haha, cant get a girlfriend, the silver fox hahaha
Nice 👍
Anymore young birds back ?
الحمام الزاجل الذي ضاع مني في أحد السباقات يوم او اكثر هل يعد حمام غير جيد واتخلص منه افضل
