Yes I have every intention of keeping the videos going for the ybs , can’t wait if I’m honest as this old bird season has been a one to forget , we look to the future now and they seem a great bunch of ybs 🤞
Now rich another good race m8 Stockton add a good day Atkinson wins the combine from billingham lister brothers and mark peo add 2 come 2gether 1 each Listers 1 teedvally fed and peo 2nd fed a min off Atkinsons time but he wonts 1min over fly so good day for Stockton boys😊 about time? Will use be up therr in the combine do ya think love watching m8 thanks keep them coming u must av the fed tappet up by now easy keep at them them babies like a nice team fingers X 🤩😁
Just had zero luck Paul , see we knew start of season we could be in trouble as we lost all of our own ybs , it’s so important this year we keep hold of them to get ourselves back on track next season , you see we have very high standards we set and we usually average around 10x1st federations each year with the old birds but we knew we could be in trouble this year but we had a glimmer of hope that a few of these yearlings were racing great the first 5 races but then bang we lost the lot in one race. It’s life mate and we need to rebuild but the sooner this old bird season is finished the better , what a year to start these videos 😂
Apologies for the subdued video , I feel our loses have taken there toll on us this year , of the 28 birds we have left only 15 of them were bred by ourselves and the season is really taking its toll on them now , in a ideal world if it wasn’t for the loses we would be resting a lot of these birds alternatively week to week to give them a break but it’s just not possible with our numbers , but all in all we have to be happy with our performance as we had 7 birds on the fed sheet but we are really suffering with the amount of good birds we have lost
Hopefully they will work in at some point a few lads had birds working back thats been missing a while another tense day for you lads thanks for sharing
@@Oneloftracing I can only put it down to two things , firstly it’s been east wind pretty much every week which is very strange indeed , the predominant wind in the uk is south west but this season it’s been east every week taking the birds inland and off route but these are old birds so that isn’t really a good enough reason which leads me to birds of prey I recently seen a statistic with regards how many birds of prey there now is in the uk , I can’t remember the number but it was astronomical and a number which threatens to multiply by 4 every year , so are these birds getting hit time after time on there journey home each time knocking batches off route ?, I feel this sport is in its final few years because of this problem as I don’t think you will be able to let your birds out of the loft without being hit
Thanks Tony but the sooner this is over the better , we just don’t have enough fire power and we race against lads with huge teams , but no good complaining as we’ve had some fantastic seasons in recent years 👍
Thanks again for sharing, hope you show us your young bird races.
