we was going to try cocks this year but have decided to race the young
hens on widdowhood and a type of jelouse system
ile let you know how they get on to be honest i think the young cocks would be to excited and blow a gasket where as hens seam to be more cal
but you cant stand still in this game so why not try 6 on it

There's a bloke who used to race here he paired yb cocks to older hens, he used to murder the place with them, he only stopped flying because of pigeon lung.
Speak to him now and he still says you cant beat a young cock on widowhood.
He said put the cocks on darkness, then pair them as you taking them off.

Here in the midlands area you can say all the top fanciers race young cocka on widowhood specially for the national and gold ring races

Flew young cocks on widowhood not all cocks take to it but once you have a few take to the system then you watch them it's best if you pair the young cocks to old hens they are more affectionate this help the young cocks

But you can also pair the young hens to old cocks get them on youngsters

Here's one for you pair 2cocks to 1 hen and play a jeolosey system with them

Thanks for the comments if we try it we will use old hens to pair up to them i were speaking to someone and he said the problem he had were getting them down and in the loft.We have a few early bred young birds and some are starting to pair up that's why i thought to ask about young cocks on widowhood thanks for the comments.

Pair the early breed cocks up who are showing signs of pairing up let them go down on eggs for 10days remove everything just like the cocks then train them the same

See how things go

told you my thoughts on it Jamie wen you were here mate never worked out for me always had better results wen there left together goin through the motions theres lots you can do with yb wen there together to motivate young cocks are daft enough as it is wind them up and they go stupid . just remember there only babies and there heads don't need mesin up what I found was they wud end up flyin over chasin hens about but each to there own while there happy in there section playin and messin about there happy

I no Steve its just something that i thought about it isn't a new thing and like you said you had problems with them trapping.We will decide if were going to try it we could put some old hens in on a Friday afternoon so the young cocks will start messing about thanks for the comments.
