F4LESS ROLLERS - 05/15/2024 flying my young 2023 hen kit with my performance feed...

Flying out the young 2023 hen kit. it's been about 3 days that I switched my feed to performance feed to see how they will react. It seems they are reacting towards it but they are also getting too frequent and not focused on setting up. With a little more time. I think they will adjust well. It's good to see the change already.
Tomorrow, I will be flying first in our Region to kick off the 2024 Wprld Cup Fly. Do our Die!! Let's GO!!

We will see how they do... hopefully the wind isn't too harsh and the rain don't come beating them down... fingers cross.

Hey, how you make out at the would cup. Did you get in, and if you did, how did you do.

[@effortlessrollersloft9659]

I came in 5th or 6th? Only had 2 qualifiers. Very heavy winds that we flew in. Overall, I was very happy with my birds and how they handled the wind.

@effortlessrollersloft9659 Nice man, you have good birds. 👍

@@loupigeonstimeflies8150 downfall was that I put my cock kit up on the wrong day. I should've trusted my gut and put them up on Thursday. The guys who flew Friday through Saturday had 20-25 mph wind... Sunday and Monday were calm again. So that hurt a lot of kits.

@effortlessrollersloft9659 Damn, that's messed up. I'm sorry to hear that. Preparations take a lot of time and effort only to have high wind ruin THE MOMENT. Wow🤦 Terrible

@loupigeonstimeflies8150 yes, it was a hard pill to swallow. But at the end of the day, we all put up our birds and we all took our chances. What sucks was, I had left 4 days before the fly to help my family out of state, and returning back, my birds got sick. Finally, after flying the Preliminary Fly, I took some of my young birds to a lab to get tested and they came back with a virus. So, now I'm fighting to keep my birds healthy and hopefully not a too heavy of a loss... time will tell.
