Pigeons gain stamina flying over the house and gain speed on the road

I love your channel. I have never flown in club, will this year. I got good pigeons from reputable breeders. Would I stand a chance in a one loft race?????

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

I would not start with the big expensive One Loft Races but there are many you are able to test the pigeons at a reasonable price. You may want to enter the Convention Races and the Gulf Coast Classic also. You do not know until you try.

[@rafalniewiarowski6158]

Great video. Thank you Sir!

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

Very welcome

[@carlosribeiro8503]

Very informative thank you. At how many months do you start training or let them out for the first time for a young birds?

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

I feel it is best to start road training young. That is difficult sometimes with hawks etc. Once they are loft flying for 30 minutes straight it is time to start training carefully and slowly.

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

I am not sure about red rice. Is it in the husk?

[@mrimpaler5327]

Thank you for all the great tips just wanted to know at what age you wean your young pigeons to vaccinate them

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

I usually wean on Saturday or Sunday because I have time. Some are a bit older and some are a bit younger. When the feathers open under the wing it is time to wean them.

[@reo5592]

Moroccan race become more strong then Europe one cz of hard weather there, it's the fact we should accept

[@soufianekerroum8650]

Thanks I enjoy your videos Question my first time going to race what I need to do to avoid molting the flight wing if we racing on beginning of September ? Thanks in advance

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

How long is your season? You can apply the Dark System so you so not have to worry about the molt or you can pull last two flights depending on how old the pigeons are right now. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5WzkKCliMuKopI

[@soufianekerroum8650]

@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons thanks frank our season for young bird start last week of September and we race every weekend about 7 races for young bird so by November we are done with YB i never try either way but I think I would prefer not to go with darkening system. Thanks again I will watch that video thanks a lot

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

I feel you can pull the ninth and tenth flight if the birds are at that stage end of the season and no need for the dark system

[@karldeltour8128]

Hi Frank, I want to start antibiotic free racing this year like you explained in your videos. I didn't gave any medication since july last year. Last week, the vet came to vaccinate my pigeons for PMV. I let him examine my old pigeons and in the droppings there was some light coccidioses. Should I thread them now because I really want to be antibiotic free ? Racing season starts here in Belgium in two weeks! Thx for your advice.

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

I would not worry about a little coccidiosis. The coccidia count goes up when they are stressed and then drops back down. Give a good oregano product and rest them for a few days and the cocci will drop. If they look excellent do not worry at all. I have not treated for cocci in over 20 years.

[@chadzkiracingpigeons]

hi, hope you are well. I have a question about the youngsters. I have 1-2 month old youngsters now. And our club training starts from September to October from 20k to almost 150km. And the race starts from November to December. I will start trapping training of the youngster by next month which is April. in your system after they learned trap training in the loft. Do you let them loft fly and how many times have you let them loft fly? or you don't let them loft fly? before you start self training toss? You said that when you start training toss them you didn't loft fly them. In my case, start from April to August during this months what should I do for the birds? Should I loft fly them? How many times? And how long?

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

I am sorry for the confusion. I was talking about my old birds. You must loft fly and trap train the young birds. The young need to go out to settle and break to the loft. Once the young are flying 30 minutes it is time to start the road training. You can go very slow in all directions and also loft fly. You can have your birds educated before the club training starts. See this video on Educating young birds. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kHSUp6lmqpeHo7M

[@chadzkiracingpigeons]

Should I loft fly them twice a day or just once is enough for the youngsters?

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

Once a day is plenty. Even four or fives times a week is enough.

[@chadzkiracingpigeons]

Thank you Frank 🙏. I will starting to use your system this year. I hope it works well for me. You're a great true winner 🏆

[@chadzkiracingpigeons]

Hi Frank, I list down my schedule for my race. Can you check it? Here's my schedules: January to March - Egg hatched April to May - start 1x feeding eat all they can / and start trap training/viewing youngsters June to july - let them learn to loft fly up to 30mins. August - Start self toss from all direction from 2km up to 30km October - 2nd week starts training up to 100km for mid toss. (1 day rest per 2 hours flight) November to December - Race start up to 370km Thanks Frank,

[@TruthSpeaker1001]

Frank, do you use Peeled Barley or the Barley still in Husk?

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

Barley must be in the husk.

[@galleryblueracingloft1238]

What’s the furthest you take your young birds out before the first race?

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

60 miles is about as far as I ever go. We start racing at about 125 miles.

[@galleryblueracingloft1238]

@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons thank you so much on the information had my first race Saturday it was 125 mile race but I’m the farthest away my birds had to fly 167 miles and I took 14th place I also helped putting the other birds on the truck and you are right on how heavy a lot of the flyers send their birds thank you

[@brianbecker1468]

Hi Frank, Just to clarify feeding young birds till they leave a bit of barley, is that a 30% barley mix or higher %?

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

If you want the young to start flying and during training give 50% barley. I add barley when the birds are maybe three months old. Feed once a day all they can eat and let them leave some barley after each daily feeding.

[@hana-houswif-ters9433]

Since you updated your vaccination schedule … I don’t see dates for booster shots 😮

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

Let me know where you are looking? On my website? I can correct this. Thank you!

[@yimyrodriguez79]

Is Versele laga Champion a good mix if I loft fly my pigeons for at least 1 hour or hour and half 5 days a week before the race

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

Champion Mix is a great mix. If you mix in 30% barley they will fly with much more ease.

[@keti7337]

Thank you for the video Frank . I have been darkening the birds from March 21 through June 21 but you mentioned in the video only 9 weeks , is it okay if I darken them only 9 weeks not 12 ?

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

It takes about 9 weeks for them to finish the body molt. See my darkening video below. You should keep them on the dark until half way through the young bird season. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5WzkKCliMuKopI

So do not say thay you do not use antibiotics you use it from an organic position

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

Organic compounds contain carbon which is very common. I use natural products and some have properties like antibiotics but I do not ever flock treat with any of the mixed antibiotics sold by Veterinarians and pigeon supply houses. My pigeons never get any commercial prepared antibiotics in a flock treatment like Tylan, Ridsol, Doxicycline, Baytril etc.

Hey John, The pigeons are all pushed into the back of one the section. The loft is 12' by 24' and I will use about 16' for the young.

[@blowuplikeafrog3700]

Hi Frank, thank you for everything you do for the sport. I'd like to ask about pulling tail feathers. When is this done and is it similar to 9th and 10th flight where they cut the tip and wait about 2 weeks to pull?

[@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons]

I am sorry to say that I have never pulled tail feathers. If you do decide to pull the tail feathers to prevent tail feather problems during racing, only pull the center four feathers. I have never heard of anyone cutting the tail and waiting before pulling. If you pull a few at a time once the youngster is about three months old there will not be a problem.
