LOFT UPDATE AND INFORMATION

Birds are doing really well!  We have only had health problems with 2 birds and both made it back to looking good.  We did a hand inventory Sunday and still need to get ahold of 1 breeder for replacement.  Sunday I am hoping to have my new power source for the clock and plan on it being live inventory and all birds here so far will get flights clipped and then pulled June 5th.  We will be taking birds until June 20th so still another month to get birds in.  I know a lot have stopped taking birds so if you want to get a real test for your birds and enjoy races with speeds between 1200-1400 ypm send us a couple and that is something we promise to strive for.

All breeders who currently have birds in our race we also would like to invite you to send 2-3 more birds free of charge.  No perch fee will ever be due for these birds but you will be required to activate all birds that come home from activation race.  I would rather have more birds for you flyers to compete again then make any money.  Please all flyers consider it!

We have already been let know of others who have shipped pigeons this week and look forward to more arriving.  

If you are looking for a great race to test your birds you wont find a better course that takes a smart bird and requires some endurance.  We strive to have good working races between 1200 ypm-1400 ypm and give our flyers 2 300+ mile races.  We will be taking birds until June 15th so you still have time to get them in.  Thanks again to those who have already sent some of there birds and we invite others to do the same!

FINAL RACE

We continue to have wind and snow and haven't had a great day to continue training.  We will be having Final Race this Saturday from Birch Creek, Montana.  We will be hauling the birds ourself so please let us know if you plan on being there when birds arrive so we can get some food.  I don't think we will be home until 2:30 or so and hope to see birds after 3-4:00.  We will see if anytime during the day on Thursday we can sneak in a toss or maybe a short one Friday.

FINAL RACE

We will not be having the final race this weekend because we have been hit with snow.  We are looking toward next weekend before we can have the final because of wind and snow.  I hope to get a training toss in tomorrow.  Birds have been let out to loft fly everyday and are looking good.  We will work and keeping them that way so we can have a good final race.  Hoping for a 1300 ypm day.
