Roller pigeons breeding tips

Tips on breeding rollers,

[@19stoney64]

I really miss my homers! Nice loft! I always went by the clean loft beliefs myself. I scraped and cleaned daily.

[@jase123111]

That's a good tip to put the males in first to choose the box they want. I also put a divider in the box for a few days to separate the female from the male... so they don't fight as much when the divider is removed, as they will have pair bonded through the wire mesh.

[@brayloncohen9455]

I guess I am quite off topic but do anybody know a good site to watch new movies online ?

[@ignaciosergio5878]

@Braylon Cohen lately I have been using Flixzone. Just google for it =)

[@keanubaker7421]

@Ignacio Sergio definitely, been using FlixZone for months myself =)

[@brayloncohen9455]

@Ignacio Sergio Thanks, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there =) I appreciate it!

[@ignaciosergio5878]

@Braylon Cohen Happy to help :)

I'm just starting into rollers I've 26 at the moment I love looking at your videos they are a great help, I've a loft but think a kit box is the way to go..

[@LozHarrop]

Hi Joe thanks, If you can do it turn one side of the loft into kit boxes much better than these hanging outside in all weathers. I have not got the room to put up a loft here. I would have a set of kit boxes inside all sectioned off with an open walkway across the fronts and maybe a flight on the rear too so i could let individual kits out.

Great work - beautiful birds!!

[@karlomirt4260]

keep doing pigeon videos Great job

[@LozHarrop]

Will do mate.

[@hamsflightskitbox3710]

Great to see your videos again, Thank you for the knowledge and videos. keep up the good work 😀

[@birdman2947]

I prefer to feed pellets and give my breeders as much as they will eat. The babies need as much food as possible. Makes the babies stronger.

[@LozHarrop]

yes your ok with pellets but with grains the birds get selective and throw the ones they dont want all over the box.

[@mohammedalyas3503]

beautiful rollers keep loading more videos please uk

[@spitrock33]

Absolutley right about small box breeding does bring about weakness. They need a continuing amount of exercise to keep their strength up. I have found that if they do have a way to fly them daily they can breed continually without any problems. For small box breederes this is a must to keep in mind to produce quaility birds. This is key for small box breederes: "quality over quanity is a must," Thanks for the pointers.

[@LozHarrop]

Thanks Wayne glad to help

[@sizlo649]

What is the wormer called that you use the one spot what brand

[@hardysnephew1810]

this is very useful as I'm also breeding my lot of rollers great vid

[@LozHarrop]

Cheers Alan.

[@rico2ace]

Hi nice video potty keep it up, can I ask wot kind of 'family of roller' u have (strain) are thy Deep roller?

[@LozHarrop]

Hi Rico, yes some of the birds are quite deep but as they get older they seem to control it more and shorten the depth. They are Birkett strain rollers.

[@pauldersch556]

Morn,en ppotty1.. I enjoy all your videos..I really like your nest box sliding door. Could you possible show a video on how you made them. I would like to incorporates those into my breeding pens.. Thanks..

[@LozHarrop]

Hi There yes I will mention in in the next pigeon video its really simple, Cheers

[@Turrnado]

ppotty1 So during these mating rituals they shouldn't have free access to food. Right now they all have 24 hour access to food. Thank you

[@LozHarrop]

It does not really matter but when breeding they should have food available but like i said they get selective and waste alot of it. I give a pair one of the pots a day about 5 spoon full of feed that way they tend to eat all of it.

[@kavishkanirmal2311]

such really beautiful pigeons

[@LozHarrop]

Thank you.

[@emzrombach6708]

Are you on Facebook or Twitter or on a pigeon forum ? I'd like to get in contact with you if possible .thanks

[@LozHarrop]

Thanks Paul. no sorry just made these for myself

[@paullewendon8795]

+ppotty1 that's a pity I would luv to have a couple, Do you have the dimensions so I could find some to make them the same as yours.

[@ramonhernandez6483]

good video

[@CaliforniaSpinners]

What works best when feeding and not flying, for you?

[@LozHarrop]

wheat mostly with plenty of grit available and a hand full of breed and wean once a week for condition.

[@CaliforniaSpinners]

I use peas the fly hard but need less and low fat build up. Keeps my hot birds from rolling

[@ochoalofts5621]

When can you show how you make your breeding boxes

[@kobebryant6838]

Thank you bro im from philippines

[@owaishussain5526]

Hi , does this method apply with all pigeons and does that medicine work for all the things you said and what is it called.

[@LozHarrop]

Yes its fine for all pigeons treats parasites like fleas,feather mites and worms. Type in "ivermectin for birds" in google there are several brands. Cheers.

[@melvenjohnsantos7427]

when is the best time to breed pigeons.. thanks for the answer. im from the philippines.

[@LozHarrop]

Early spring here in the UK, although some do start in January so the young birds are ready to fly in competition early in summer.

[@VanTheGamer07]

i got racers pigeon and they will not breed i wanna try to use the method at 5:40 but the problem is that i don't know between male and female if i put male and female together how long will it take for them to lay a egg and what is that method called at 5:40?

[@LozHarrop]

Your birds should breed its difficult to stop them, males are sometimes bigger than the hens they are also the ones you can hear in my videos they make all the noise constantly strutting around and arguing with other cocks. The hen will lay down for a cock like you see on this video, watch how he behaves when I put the hen in, your should behave the same. if he fights then its may be another cock you have put into the box, the cocks wont lay down for other cocks to mate with them.

[@VanTheGamer07]

***** thank you very much sir.

[@jameslamb4573]

Will you video the full cycle, i.e. until the chicks fly?

[@LozHarrop]

Dont think im breeding James but if i change my mind I will for sure.

[@ardyjaved7676]

Hiya what breed and ween do u use what company verse laga, country wide etc?

[@LozHarrop]

Hi, I use a local supplier called Bamfords/top flight its their own mixture. but i once got hold of a bag of Bucktons and I found that a better mixture with smaller peas than the bamford mix.

[@garrystephenson4119]

Hi there, I used to live in Ulnes Walton and got my feed from Bamfords.......I had Bill Barret and Ron Snow's birds back when Bill was still alive. Great video's by the way.

[@kobebryant6838]

Hi good breeding can you make small pigeon loft step by step just for 8 pigeon only Thanks😀

[@LozHarrop]

My boxes are split in half with a divider, one half would be suitable for 8 birds so you only need to build one that size. Cheers.
