Thanks!

Thank you!! ☺️

Thanks! 👍🏻

Thanks Dennis! Muddy Feet is a good name indeed ☺️ I like the way you think

Thanks Dennis 🙏🏻

If pigeons could talk 😉

With last year's team I would 100% agree with you, this year's team, not so much. It is really up to what the birds are familiar with. Unfortunately these guys are not used to me being there when they trap in. The time split between both lofts has caused me to not spend as much time with these guys as I would have liked. 80% of the time they trap in, I am nowhere near the loft. Thank goodness for electronic timing or I would not be able to race.

@@littleloftonthehill .. K Gotcha

Thanks for watching!

“Lulu” Lol

🤣😂

We dropped two 😢, Parker Dixon and Red from AdrianP 🪦

Thanks Cavender, congrats Tom. Maybe new driver forgot watering the birds?!..

Thanks!

He put water in front of them, it was 38 degrees at release, with it that cold they just didn’t drink. I need to do better the night before make sure they drink

Thanks Rich for the tip, I do miss a bird once in a while, we had five on the drop last race, I would have had the first five places in the combine. I only had four because of the issue you mentioned. I need to quit being lazy and make the change 👍

@@littleloftonthehill Yeah I know what you mean I’ve got to get out to my breeding loft’s and put up new wire. I’ve got a problem with rats here, having a neighbor with a hoarding issue, it’s a pain in the back. I’ve been putting out the poison ☠️ just one bite and they eat like candy crazy I’m in Pahrump Nevada that’s 50 miles west of Vegas, it’s a bedroom community. My daughter wants me to start my white dove release business back up, if I do I’m going to need some really good white homer’s, I sold all my other whites . I had the Roger Mortvedt's white racer’s they were great. Any great videos keep up the good work.

@@RichBarschdorf thanks for watching, good luck in the races 👍

👍

Thanks Dennis 💪 They are trickling in…

Another tough day! They are trickling in

Good Luck sir .

@@NewBeginningKennelLoft thank you

You got one in the race?

@@NewBeginningKennelLoft I wish bro I really do but next year I will for sure I didn't get pigeons until March 23 on my birthday they were a gift from me and my wife so I didn't have time to get any ready to send but Def sending some out this coming season 🤞🏼🙏🏼

Thanks

Thank you

These birds were from three lofts, we each live within about four miles of each other. I am on the other side of a hill from the other two. The birds usually come home in small groups. Some end up following one of the other lofts birds then circle back to my loft. From this 80 mile toss first birds came in 9:18 last one came in at 9:39. They were released at 7:25. A little more than two hours to fly 80 miles 👍

@@littleloftonthehill this is so amazing Thankyou for answering!

Many of the old timers are passing away. Two from my club this year 😢. My channel I show how you can race with just a small 4x8 loft. It is a lot of work but I enjoy it.

It is something I really enjoy

Loft flying around the house is one of my favorite things. I can’t imagine what it would be like with 100 all white pigeons 👍🕊️

​@@littleloftonthehill You live in BEAUTIFUL country,what state I'm jealous......

@@joanlovelace7338 I am in the California foothills close to Sacramento

@@littleloftonthehill STUNNING 😍 🫡👍

Pigeon races. They take them far from home and release them to see who makes it home first.

Like people training for a marathon start off with a short distance and get further and further. Getting the ready for races.

Luckily all the timing and trapping is electronic, I set it up before I leave with them. They frequently beat me home and I get a text message when each pigeon arrives home 👍

And I love In n Out

Some areas pigeon racing is growing, my area not so much.

That is so cool. It was so long ago when we did it it was printed on a little scroll type paper and you turned that in.

@@aaronrex2531so much easier now with text messages when each bird arrives home. All automatic👍 if it was not like that I could not race with work and sports on the Saturdays with my kids. I frequently miss them coming home but have food and water waiting for them. I end up watching the race unfold on my phone.

Mine like peanuts, raw shelled peanuts

Glad you liked it. It works great 👍

🤣😂🤣 sorry

💪 I will remind them prior to basketing

@@littleloftonthehill #motivation

Wondered the same thing. I figured since he was talking about further distance that there was maybe a specific spot that they knew to fly back to.

I race them, they fly back to their home 80 miles away. About 45 miles per hour. The race has one starting point, these pigeons fly back to their four different homes. The winning pigeon is the one that flys the fastest.

The race series last 8 weeks, every Saturday if the weather is good, they get progressively further each weekend from 90 miles to 300 miles.

​@@littleloftonthehill do you know of any videos on this sport ,

Thanks! They are looking a lot better

God’s Country (song in the background) 😉

Do any ever get taken by hawks? That'd be my fear bc I'm always wiggin over something

Thanks! Hope you are well 👍

@@littleloftonthehill .. Yes, doing good and likewise.. thanks!
