Has everyone paired up now...?

have most/all our members paired up now...? if not when do you plan on pairing?

im starting on saturday david i think there ready now ive been trimming the hens down a bit
all the boxes have been painted and sprayed the night are getting longer can,t wait now .

i was like that last week kev, glad they are paire now but like i said on another topic im having a few problems and wondering if i should have paired earlier because they are all yearlings........

just leave em be david like you said yearlings are just like teenagers they will settle down
in a few days i just let mine choose there own mates and walk away if i stay and watch it does my head in

yes mate no point watching it will only stress you out im the same though

well to be honest i lost my temper today and punched the loft wall inside.....i new it was the wrong thing to do as soon as i had done it but they just got me so mad..........im a placid person and it was out of charactor for me ans i regretted doing it but i also know its down to me to do things right and it was probably frustration at my own stupidity.

i wouldnt worry about that mate just chill and let em get on with it i still got 1 cock bird being a right pain so he gets locked in his box longer than the others he got food water and is kept clean so wat can happen if it takes longer for his hen to lay so be it the other cocks are getting more territorial over there own box so soon they will see him off

i know how you feel david but reading all these articles in the mags don,t help saying they all layed out in 10 days take it with a pinch of salt they all don,t .
don,t lose your temper as the pigeons can sense your moods at the end of the day there only pigeons david
don,t get up set they will pair up when there ready there is plenty of time yet .

well at least your man enough to admit your mistake mate but remeber to learn from it
after all rember we are the ones choosing the birds mates and forcing them to pair when we want not like they would in the wild ill bet you 500 quid you never seen a woodpigeon on eggs this time of year
just take a step back mate there is always 1 to test your patiants

Will all be fine soon david and you will have plenty of ybs and you will wonder what you worried about. remember its a new experience for them
