I think I need you to babysit Henry for a week or two for me haha . I cannot get over how calm your birds are handling…so svelte too! It’s soooooooo beautiful wow I love it
Looking good, good luck this year. I like to keep some notes on my birds as well. A lot of people should be journaling their birds more frequently. Helps a lot for the further of understanding one’s bird.
Some nice looking youngsters, James. 👍.. Good luck in the OLR's. We'll see ya at the Martinez Classic for sure. And the Apple Cup if you send there too.
Ha, I was going to start this comment with- hope your doing well.....but after seeing tou handle that group of YBs I would imagine your doing just fine. Looking good.
James, besides pedigree, what other factors should we consider when grading a pigeon, like they do on auction sites? What are the most critical factors in quality control? I'm working on creating an Excel file to track all the birds I have.
That is great to hear! Ultimately, the only thing that proves a bird's worth is performance; either as a breeder or racer or both. But, when I'm grading my YBs before I send them out I'm mostly looking to weed out the weak ones. I like to see birds with good balance, strength (in the wing), and overall health. I like to see tight, closed vent bones but not all my birds have that, and that's OK. Hope that helps
I use two. I use a Google Sheets to track all the young birds that I breed each year. For managing breeders and pedigrees I use PigeonDB. I’ll do a video on that soon.
@@BoroviewFarm I usually wean them a little later than most and do it primarily on appearance. Generally around 22 days old I put them on the floor. Then around 30 days I’ll put them in their own section.

Love the first little Greg Rockets baby. All of them look fantastic.
Thanks Jason! Really appreciate that!

What software do u use for record keeping?
I use two. I use a Google Sheets to track all the young birds that I breed each year. For managing breeders and pedigrees I use PigeonDB. I’ll do a video on that soon.
White cap is a good name

How do you know when to wean them? Age, appearance, behaviors?
