| i made the mistake of having ybs at different ages for the last couple of years, it runs smoother i think if they are all roughly the same age, altho if floating eggs it should still give you ybs around the same age shouldnt it...... |

| i seperated my stock ages ago,but not many are going as their ybs flew well for us.one or two maybe to go but it going be hard as like i said they all flew well conciderind we missed the first two races and remember they had a massive jump of nearly a hundred miles like i memetioned eariler in the saeson.....i,ll give them another season but its a nice problem to have |

| with me only racing three races im in a similar position ray, the ybs wernt really tested this seson so the parents are un proven..........i could do with getting rid of about 20 birds but its deciding weather to breed more from them again or just make the break and get rid............ |
