  • 2023 Young Bird Racing Team progress. Settling the pigeons. The birds are all flying from the table. Now we increase the distance from the table to the loft. Should also be adding new birds soon.

    You’re birds need to stand on the pad clock longer to get them to into the clock.
    I like the metal stall traps it slows them down from jumping into the loft.

      Thanks Rich for the tip, I do miss a bird once in a while, we had five on the drop last race, I would have had the first five places in the combine. I only had four because of the issue you mentioned. I need to quit being lazy and make the change 👍

      Yeah I know what you mean I’ve got to get out to my breeding loft’s and put up new wire.
      I’ve got a problem with rats here, having a neighbor with a hoarding issue, it’s a pain in the back.
      I’ve been putting out the poison ☠️ just one bite and they eat like candy crazy
      I’m in Pahrump Nevada that’s 50 miles west of Vegas, it’s a bedroom community.
      My daughter wants me to start my white dove release business back up, if I do I’m going to need some really good white homer’s, I sold all my other whites .
      I had the Roger Mortvedt's white racer’s they were great.
      Any great videos keep up the good work.

      Good idea! We have 12 more coming in the next few weeks. I need a little larger loft. It is in the works. Hopefully this summer. I have my nine birds that finished the 2022 season, maybe keep over some of these, bring in a dozen or so late hatches and fly old birds in 2024. We will see how this goes! Thanks for your support!

  • @georgegatti1

    I would give them one ounce per bird in the evening. Open hole them and they will be fine. When they come back in feed them the one ounce. Your doing an amazing job but I think your doing more than what’s needed.

    • @littleloftonthehill
      @littleloftonthehill  Рік тому +1

      Thanks George! Better to do more than needed, than not enough, right? I have since moved to just once a day feeding. The biggest issue I have is adding more birds every week. I spend about twenty minutes a day with birds and I really enjoy that time.

    • @georgegatti1
      @georgegatti1 Рік тому +1

      @@littleloftonthehill this is what I do when I have new birds. I lock all the birds up for one week. Use a settling cage. Then feed as normal let the birds go in and out of the settling cage. After one week take the setting cage off. Your birds will train the new birds. You won’t have to do anything. Just stick to one ounce per bird till they are really trained up. This works for me.
