  • Racing pigeons training tosses from 15 and 21 miles. Watch for the hallmark of a bird of prey attack during their flight home. Our 2021 racing pigeons homing pigeons returned home late from a training toss that should have been easy. The racing pigeons also arrived in groups of 2 or 3. This creates a touch decision for Robertson Family Racing Pigeons whether or not we will race in the 2021 Young bird series. Stay tuned for more info and to see if any additional racing pigeons returned .

    No worries all will come back late that day or the next day. My bird was loft fly during 4th of July around 8:00 PM, I made a mistake once the sun set fire works started and all of my birds was kept on flying and flew somewhere else and the next early morning all came back.

      Yeah, I had a similar experience last year with my YB team. A cooper's hawk swooped in on them during their evening loft fly and they did not come back that night. They did all return the next morning. Sadly, this has been different. They must have been especially spooked and flown many miles off course and the ones that returned were beat. They are all little bit more skittish in the loft. Haven't gotten any more back today. 15/21 are back. Thanks for the comment and well wishes!!

    My Sister's old Father in Law (who was in the 285th Signal Pigeon Corps in WW2) had a loft just below Mica Peak in the Spokane Valley (Washington). He was up near the tree line and had Peregrine's regularly pick off his birds. I got a few of his unflown, young ones and they were the jumpiest birds I ever owned. Thanks for the video.

      Wow--that is really cool about the WW2 birds and that you got some. I believe it that peregrines regularly pick them off. Folks in the UK now are experiencing significant losses and fanciers are simply throwing in the towel all together. Thanks for following!!

    • @RFRP
      @RFRP  Před 3 lety +1

      In this case I don't think it is a situation of enjoying their freedom. I think they were attacked, scattered and flew like crazy and didn't look back. Some may have been injured in the process or simply became too disoriented and exhausted to return home. I hope they at least find new lofts to join.

      I had a blue bar bird that returned form a 10 Ks training session after 4 days with his left wing snapped in halves. He was jumping from one house top to the other untill he got to the loft.
      Never give up mate.

      Hmmm, I guess my advice would be to just start it and see if you like doing it. pick what you like from what others pigeon CZcamsrs do and add any new ideas you might have. I shoot all my vids from my phone so it doesn’t require any extra gear. Good luck!

      The box in this video has plenty of ventilation and it only had like 9 birds in it. Nothing wrong with that whatsoever. This sport does not require a fancy loft, or fancy crates. It requires good healthy birds with proven bloodlines and a fancier that loves and cares for them properly. That’s what’s so great about-anyone can enjoy flying pigeons! As a kid all I had was two cardboard fruit boxes that I cut ventilation holes, and doors and guess what? My birds were healthy and performed great.
