| The tippler's when doing ok will do four to five hours easy, pain in the arse if your waiting to go out, As for the tumblers mine do around 3/4 too an hour |

| Cut all.my fancy birds right back sold all my balls and badges,and tipplers, all I have left is 24 self yellows and clay yellow's.
Going to have a really good go at racing next year, it will be weird going.to club on a Friday with no old birds to fly, but gives me the chance to get a good.kit.of young birds ready.and trained properly |

| Tipplers were my introduction to pigeon keeping, enjoyed every minute of it, flew some good hours with them to, father in law was brilliant at flying them |
