I have never seen pigeons trained in this way, I have been racing pigeons for over 40 years and this kinda blows my mind. I have went out and bought some of the best genetics I can get so I don’t have to do this kind of training. The amount of effort you put into this training is amazing. My Race team is huge so it won’t work for me but for a small team this is brilliant. Interested to see how your do Racing. This is a fantastic video enjoyed it
Also I have some other pigeons not racers and a pair have layed 1 egg the same day could I move it over to there nest an see iff they would foster it or just leave it be never had this situation before eny advice would be appreciated...
Yeah, not very hungry or just wanting to go fly and explore. JT is still being bad, put his tail on time out!! Anyway, I think the RFRP birds are ready for a 15 mile toss training 😅 but take them by themselves 😂
Hi could I have some advice I recently acquired a pair of racing pigeons that have laid and have been incubating 2 eggs now bin about 15 days and fertile but today has layed a 3rd egg shell I leave it and would they continue to incubate it when the other 2 hatch
Is your pair of racing pigeons in a separate cage or are they with other pigeons? If they are in an open loft with other pigeons maybe your pair is really two hens. Are you sure they are fertile eggs? I have never heard of this happening.
Hi Peter! Yes, 100% correct, normally I would want them flying. The challenge I have this year is all my birds are coming from TH-cam content creators. I still have four guys birds yet to add to the loft. Hopefully over the next few weeks. The oldest birds want to fly, cutting the feed a little will keep them close to home , off the roof, until I get all the birds in the loft on the same page. If the team was all together or I had an easy way to keep them in separate sections I would say keep them flying. Thanks for watching!
100% spot on, Thanks for the advice. I am not as strict as I need to be with the feed. I have added new birds every week or so. Four more this week. Trying to get the new squeakers enough and over feeding the older birds in the process. I should have all the birds in the next week or so and it will be easier.
Very nice

Fun to see the progress my friend!!
Thanks for sending them!
Looking good :)
Thanks!
Great videos am so enjoying the progress all of them are making hope we get some more colours from the remaining 4 guys 👍🇬🇧
I hope so too!
Birds want to fly. A good thing! Great video as usual.
Thanks, we just need the rest of the birds so I can get them all coming together. Hopefully we get them all by the middle of April
Nice to see the difference between properly fed vs overfed and how they react. Can't wait to see them all flying together. Thanks for the update.
Us too!
Very nice video. Keep up great work. Birds are looking great.
Thank you very much!
The birds are looking good it won't be long until they are kitting together.
I just need to get the last few guys to send their birds. Thanks for watching!
Smart bird what states do you are
I am in Northern California
birds are doing really well
Thanks for watching!
Looks pretty dark it would be hawk dissaster for me. My fat birds would be struggling to even fly up to my shed in the sping.
Also I have some other pigeons not racers and a pair have layed 1 egg the same day could I move it over to there nest an see iff they would foster it or just leave it be never had this situation before eny advice would be appreciated...
If they are laid around the same time, a day it to a part. You can move them to the other nest, no problem

Anyway, I think the RFRP birds are ready for a 15 mile toss training 😅 but take them by themselves 😂
🤣😂I just want to get all the birds in the loft, get them all on the same page and flying, hopefully get them all in over the next couple weeks
I think JT is just bored, needs a challenge… adding new birds every week slows the group down
I agree. A 15 mile toss would be a good thing for them.
@Maydisloft 😆😆 And clip the flight feathers of those RFRP street pigeons beforehand 😆
@@RFRP ... 😂😂

@@littleloftonthehill yes separately from the others and the first 2 eggs r fertile and I no it's strange
You want them to fly good or to enter the loft quick? Seems to me the opposite

If you keep the birds hungry and let them out before they eat they will trap. Quickly that's the key I raise homing pigeons for 10 years or so
