Scary time for you Darren, fingers crossed for you both, mine had an any age race Saturday, all home and one got a 9th club, gave them a 21 mile toss today, they were slow but all 9 clocked in 7 seconds, I’m happy with that as I’ve found them the hardest ever kit of YBS to control, I’ve got a delivery 60 miles away tomorrow so they’re coming with me.

Good going oldstrain, think small batches may have a better chance against raptors.

Think the weather plays a part in how soon they find their bearings.


Hope the deserter turns up, maybe done it some good if it does.

Regards.

not a great toss today they were about to clear in the correct direction and suddenly they started climbing higher and headed off opposite direction shortly after she appeared and split them up she was chasing down 5 ybs that had split ,not sure if one got took as they went out of sight ...they took 1 hr 15 mins for what was no more than a 40 minute toss and the 5 that split came late 1 is still missing they were pretty shook up so got the bath out and tried to settle them ,droppings look normal at present but will be watching them closely over next 24 hours 1 or 2 were dehydrated so maybe a day off tomorrow for the team

oldstrain, the more I consider the problems present day fanciers face, both unavoidable with no fault of the fancier, along with the problems fanciers cause themselves, the more it makes not now being involved more bearable.


The raptors could be taking all your best pigeons, they could affect every race result causing mayhem amongst the leaders etc;


There has always been a certain amount of luck involved but never on the same scale.


You are doing well even despite the problems some lose more off the loft top, and hopefully the other will turn up.


Hope Alfie is still as keen as mustard and not too upset with the raptor problem.


Regards.
