I come to your Channel ‘Heartbroken))) as I woke up to my 6 week old male pigeon laying dead on my 4th floor balcony,… mom & dad are still here with their 2 week old new eggs in the corner 😮💨 I’m just not sure if the sister flew to safety🤞🏼as my son heard the commotion, and thinks it was a Hawk attack, but didn’t see it happen !? Should I be concerned that they will come back again, and is there anything I can do to negates such evil …
I love your "how to breed..." videos, and I have a question because of it. Can you make a video about saddle pigeons genetic ? I'm very curious about it
Humans are horrible. We literally flew on these birds back to victory turning the war, and now they live a desolate life in New York City where they don’t even know how to build their own nests. Every living thing has God in it, I feel horrible sympathy for these creatures.
@Rev792 You make a very good point. I had a look at the Federation results for the 8 races so far and 7 of them were won with 2nd place behind by between 1 and 27 seconds, according to Par Time. The Gunning race on June 8th had a win with 5 seconds to 2nd, 7 seconds to 3rd and 22 seconds to 4th, according to Par Time. Gundagai Sale Yards race, also on June 8th had 1 second PAR Time from 1st to 2nd and velocities of 1855.939 and 1855.78. Those 2 fliers were some distance apart on different sides of Sydney. If I remember correctly clubs get allocated a loading location on the truck, so those with a lower loading location could have a 30 second advantage over the top row. I don't think this issue is new and it is perhaps better to have an incremental safe release rather than a simultaneous release with possibility of injury.
Two comments: 1, each club is allocated COLUMNS on the truck, not rows. This means the top and bottom positions are equally distributed between the clubs. 2, if you've ever actually attended a liberation you'd know that the birds do not leave instantly. It takes at minimum 2-5 minutes, and the birds from all baskets group together before leaving. This staggered release over 30 seconds is for the safety of the birds and prevents injuries from clashes in a mob release.
We do not see everything that happens in a race I like swindell of NI any bird that comes back even weeks later is welcome to stay things happen out there ? Maybe they had to detour around bandits 6 o'clock high - who knows
@AdamArcherPigeons watched kurts videos was raining in wa also. Interesting to see if you both could make super pigeons. With a combined breeding programme
Nice to see the lib committee giving the birds their best chance by coming back a bit and delaying. Good to see your excellent returns continuing, so you must be doing most things right and you were still in front of some good flyers on the fed sheet.
I just found a couple weeks old pigeon nearly dead in the park here in Marseille. I brought it home and gave him some water and I saw immediate improvement. I'm feeding him every four hours with soft meaty cat and he's doing great. My three cats are a bit jealous. Hopefully I can let him go once he can fend for himself but Im afraid he will be too dependant on us. If Im doing anything wrong please feel free to comment. Thanks.
@@AdamArcherPigeons No, I’m in my second season of racing and we bring in the clocks just on shipping night. Which is nice because the club is an hour away. What do you do at the club for close up of the race? Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦
I do actually think birds find medals and shiny stuff as an award as other people have said. Birds like attention too! My grandmother always had birds and they really were quite smart and amazing. At the end of the night, she'd put a cover over the big cage and they'd sleep. Miss that
