  • Preparations for the 2022 racing season are underway. In this video we show you how we feed our pigeons prior to, and during, the breeding season. We also show you our breeding pairs for the season and finally we'll give you our initial verdict on the Hermes nestboxes that we've installed in the loft.

    As always, another great video Carwyn 👏 👏
    Super impressed with the boxes 👍
    Is there some kind of water spray or sponge on them that keeps them looking so pristine (yellow) or do you wash them yourself as they pass over the end roller?
    Could I be so cheeky as to ask how much they work out at ££ (oh I just have 😃)
    Your young birds look fantastic, a reflection of all the good corn and attention you give them 👍
    Look forward to seeing Dave's set up, my friend has birds off him and is delighted with them.

      Hi Andrew. The boxes were around £4000 in total but will hopefully last for years. The ones in the video had only been lived in for a few weeks but the yb perches have had better use. Yes we wash the scrapers and sponge the belt to keep it clean and also oil the chain motor. It's pretty straightforward and save a lot of time so has worked out well.

      @@carwynharrisracingpigeons9387 Not a bad price that I reckon, we only fit new boxes about 3 years ago so won't be replacing them in a hurry but we will definitely consider them when the time comes for a change.
      Thanks for being so open and as you say a good way to spend money you didn't spend through covid lockdown.
      Speak again soon 👍

    • @carwynharrisracingpigeons9387
      @carwynharrisracingpigeons9387  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Geoff. Yes it can be done however you'll need lady luck on your side. The biggest issue we face is training the birds by car prior to racing. If the birds experience a BOP attack and panic then it's not uncommon to lose 50% of the birds. Good luck though 👍

    May i ask why did you stop using beyers? Price comparison between matador or quality?

    • @carwynharrisracingpigeons9387
      @carwynharrisracingpigeons9387  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      We were really impressed with the quality and I wouldn't hesitate to use Beyers corn again. However it didn't improve our results in 2021. There are of course many factors to gaining success and we wouldn't say that our results weren't as good because we changed the feed slightly but we're going back to what we know and what worked for us previously which was solely using Matador. We've been guilty of trying new products which haven't improved our results so are going back to basics somewhat in 2022.

    • @carwynharrisracingpigeons9387
      @carwynharrisracingpigeons9387  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We continue to feed them on Matador breeding mix until they're around 8 weeks old. We'll then switch them to the young bird mix. We'll feed them once per day when we start to let them out to keep them under control. We'll add a small amount of Hormoform and pellets to their feed to ensure they have a good balanced diet.
