ginger, you have mentioned something i have been going to ask for a long time but just didnt get round to it..........ive heard of a local fancier who flys his ybs this way by keeping them hungry and placing glass over the food before they race/train, then on their arival home the glass has been removed as incentive to hurry back home.....

No but have seen fanciers keep there pigeons hungary have there birds out close the trap and shake the corn tin but they can not get in the loft for the food after a few minutes of calling the birds the traps are opened up the birds fly in the trap after food then before all the food has gone the troff / hopper is removed and you keep this up until they know when they are called the food is there for them the birds trap like lightning
