Great video and good to see a new starter putting videos on, as I don't have any pigeons but want to get them its good to see your birds and set up. Hope the rest of your birds come back soon for you and I hope some of the more experienced pigeon people out there follow you and give you some great tips all the best and keep the videos coming.

Thank you for your comment I really do appreciate it! But yes I would love some more feedback and help within the sport. Good luck with your journey

[@tonypeters9763]

Mine will be a while yet but I'm following alot of pigeon people on KZbin which is very helpful it's great to watch the preparation all week then the race and results good luck with your birds

[@CountryEBT]

@tonypeters9763 that’s brilliant then, hopefully you enjoy watching my future videos, we have a loft build coming up shortly. But again thank you for watching

Great video. Cut down on the corn.

[@CountryEBT]

Thank you we appreciate it! It does look more than it looks but I feed 1oz per pigeon however I appreciate the guidance thank you

[@seedmeow3070]

Wow love the pigeon video! Glad they all came back eventually! Hoping to get into it as well, but I wanna do more research. It would be a cool old school way of communicating. love it!

[@CountryEBT]

Thank you for the kind feedback! But it is very interesting but hard work! Growing up with my dad taking up the sport around 10 years ago so I have got some guidance however people do things differently whether right or wrong! However good luck with your journey

[@davidrichards1001]

defiantly would have let them go from 2 miles on there own for few times before , good luck with the rest of them

[@CountryEBT]

I completely agree, next couple of training tosses are going to be a couple of miles and on their own, just hard due to work at the moment and I also wanted to be at the loft to see them back for the first time

[@markvannunen3812]

I always have put some older birds with the young ones. Just so they will learn to fly back home directly.

[@CountryEBT]

That was the plan with these young ones but there is a few hawks about but also maybe to far of a chuck for the first time? We’ll see what happens

[@hendry147147]

You don’t gain anything by going to far on first toss . Mine see my village and it’s 1/2 a mile … Shame you haven’t got a life ring Ti race

[@CountryEBT]

Definitely right, it was a risk however still learning, more of a practise run before we race in our club next season. Any tips or tricks would be appreciated

[@hendry147147]

@@CountryEBT you’ll need life rings on your birds , pigeon fanciers will say that your birds you have now “ would better get rid of them “ as you have no room . I didn’t have a clue when I started at 10 but just love pigeons. All the best.

[@CountryEBT]

@@hendry147147 that’s right, next year I have people breeding me some with my own ring on to race and a new loft will Be made for extra room, like I say this is just as a hobby and are seen as pets. But thank you all the best

Noticed some picking at the gutter on the roof. Are you providing grit? Fresh grit should always be available. It’s needed for digestion.
