    The ups and downs of pigeon racing. Gotta have a short memory or it will drive you insane. This sport is not for the faint of heart. Birds are. Looking good Tom

    It stinks but it happens. It wasn't meant to be. I wish you a successful season with all the other birds.

      I saw 413 push your bird into that tree. He was told to take out the competition by any means necessary. Your bird looked like strong competition and 413s mom told him about the Jersey Terror from last year. All kidding aside, sucks to lose one before it even has a chance to compete. That was a good looking bird.

    Sorry for the loss, it definitely happens to every one of us. Yeppers, two NASH bands, Lee and I fly out of the same club. The birds are looking good. Thanx for sharing the progress.

    When you just loft fly do you always do it from the crate or release them direct from the loft?

    • @littleloftonthehill
      @littleloftonthehill  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      So far, yes I’ve always released from the crate. The reason being the birds exit and enter the loft is the same spot when I open the door I will get the first group that’ll go out and they’ll be out grouting and gone and they’ll be stragglers that come out last and aren’t with the rest of the group, one of the things on the to do list is to have an aviary underneath the landing board and I can run all the birds out there and then have it have a release store so I’ll be together. I just haven’t done it yet.

      @@littleloftonthehill thanks for the reply! That’s good to know. I’ve read about using the basket early on to not only teach them how to get back to the loft but also to teach them from an early age that the basket means: out the basket, straight to the loft as quick as possible. That’s interesting that so far they have only flown from the basket. Evidently works as I’ve been following your great results for the last couple of years 👍
      I’ve just got my first birds (after a 15 years break) but live in a built up area now with lots of ferals, and only a 30ft long garden. Just working out how best to navigate the settling stage 😅

    It’s typical attack of hawks hitting the neck
    I don’t think was a wire hit.

    • @littleloftonthehill
      @littleloftonthehill  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It was a wire, broken wing and neck, a couple of the recent tosses they have done the same thing, flying very fast and low and below the tree line with some birds going over and others around either side. Fast enough that it hit then flew 100’ to where it landed.

    You live in a beautiful area wide open fields. Find someplace with open area no trees or wires. Your birds will stay low and learn not to circle when relieced. Try to remember what they do in training they will do on race day.

      Unfortunately, in many areas of the West Coast, you're not going to find open areas for tossing. I have to go almost 25 miles out on the line of the course to come to the first place without wires. Getting away from trees isn't so hard in most cases, but wires are almost impossible to avoid in the populated areas.
