Birds lookin' great! I use to have them climb over others and miss the pad also when they're anxious to get in the loft. You've done good job getting them to come in to your call. Keep at it.
Hello Mike, looking good. That grizzle youngster turned out beautiful. They might not go in right away on the short tosses but they listen to your wistle so that's good... Best of luck on your races
When I was racing I used a unicon system that's what everyone here in Texas uses its simple and works well your birds are doing well if they loft fly that long racing pigeons does take a lot of time and money
Don’t worry about them coming late from short tosses I believe on race day they will come faster and get down as soon as they see their loft👍👍👍😘😘😘 beautiful. Nothing like excitement of racing 👍👍👍
Birds are looking great my brother I was having a similar problem to that I think it was last year where the birds were all come back from training and pile in and I had at that .50 something birds so the clock would not catch all the birds because like you say they would jump over each other. I was a little worried like you but when I came race time I never got such a big group of birds at once where I had to worry about that problem at the most and be like a group of 10 or 12 birds at once and they were all scanning. Just sharing a little piece of mind 😆 god bless brother and keep up the great work
Thanks for the input my friend, a lot of people are saying that so I’m not going to worry about it. I guess if I am home and a bird traps and doesn’t register I can just go on the inside grab it and run out and scan it. Hopefully I don’t need to. I hope your birds are getting into great shape now! Have a great day brother, God bless
@@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons yes sir they’re always that option but I’m willing to bet it will work just fine for you. Birds are going good still not down the road yet but very soon
Hi Mike birds look wonderful and the set up is great. Sometimes they all get to the antenna together that’s why you don’t get them all but on race day it should be fine. That baby grizzle looks beautiful. Good luck on the coming races👍👍👍😘😘😘😘
Thank you my friend, a lot of people are saying the same so I’m not going to worry about it and hopefully it will work out fine. Thanks for your input i always appreciate it
Gorgeous birds , you ought to do well in races . Good. Luck , any later you will going into prime migration of the hawks and falcons .I hope you will be ahead of that game .
Mike birds are looking good. Remember that on race day the first 3 birds that come in are the possible winners the rest you just want them to at least get home at a good time. Talking about getting home, did all the Mortvedts finally get home from that one bad toss where you lost some. GREG GVJ LOFTS KEEP THEM FLYING 🕊
Your birds are trapping really good. Hopefully you can get the antenna to work or either modify the window for them to drop into. Good luck with your first race hopefully you will win. The baby from the tiger grizzle project is really nice.
Thanks buddy, I don’t know about winning but it sure will be interesting. Never know until we try. That little grizzle looks very nice and fun to have birds like that. Have a great day my friend
Hi. Another nice video. Always looking to watch your videos and learn from them. I am in my first year too. Are you still feeding once a day, and if so, how do you do to bring the birds back in the afternoon from a loft fly? Did you find out if you can race the pigeons that are moulting. Thanks in advance
I only feed once a day when I return from the loft fly or toss. Hi used to fly them twice a day and cut the feed in half giving only like feed after the morning flight. Definitely don’t want to race molting pigeons. Thanks for your comment my friend
Where the pad is concerned of birds not scanning the birds , i think your best option its to build a box on the outside so that they wont be able to get on top of eachother and they will be forced to walk over the pad and not jump on top of each other and your problem will be solved
Great timing system, a big improvement from the past where you had to remove the rubber band and insert it in a machine. Is the feather cutting and plucking a normal thing that racers do today? I also have not heard about going dark to enhance mounting. Things have changed a lot and added much work to keep birds in racing shape. Looking good! enjoy your videos.
This is my first year trying out racing but from what I’ve been told you cut the primary flights and pull them 2weeks later. I’m not sure I agree with it so I only did the oldest ones. The dark system does seem to be working but I have been told that I am starting it to late. It’s a learning experience for me 😁
Are they young birds and if so it’s usually a feeding problem because I know you’re bird’s are nice and healthy and free of bugs and worms. Probably to much corn (I don’t use any) and possibly to much protein. I hope you can get it straight my friend
@@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons it was my fault jumping in with a comment. I had a fancier with a faulty ring on one of his pigeon when we were at the club, basketing night. He was gutted to have to take the pigeon back as it did well the week before.
The bad habit of still circling when returning from training will go away once they the distance goes further and further , they telling you now this is nothing we need a further toss 😂
The way you always know when someone needs something is amazing.
Thank you 🙏
Thanks for the update, that young grizzle is beautiful
Glad you like the new grizzle, thanks for watching 👍

Thank you Brad, Now all they need to do is come home real fast LOL. Thanks for watching.
They doing good Mike..keep them working and be safe! 👍🏻
Thank you buddy, you do the same.
Hello Mike, looking good. That grizzle youngster turned out beautiful. They might not go in right away on the short tosses but they listen to your wistle so that's good... Best of luck on your races
Thanks for watching my friend. I think the little grizzle will be a favorite of mine!
Wow! They really trapped quick. That’s awesome!
Yes they have gotten much better. Thanks James ✌️
Young Grizzle.nice that.👍🏽
Thanks buddy glad you like it 👍
When I was racing I used a unicon system that's what everyone here in Texas uses its simple and works well your birds are doing well if they loft fly that long racing pigeons does take a lot of time and money
We have no choice we have to use these timers! Not cheap for how they work. So far not impressed. Thanks for watching.
Don’t worry about them coming late from short tosses I believe on race day they will come faster and get down as soon as they see their loft👍👍👍😘😘😘 beautiful. Nothing like excitement of racing 👍👍👍
I think you are right about that. They probably just want to get in for a drink! Have a great day
Great video, amazing content. Thank for sharing 😊

I sure hope we beat the migrating birds of prey, glad you like the pigeons. Thanks for watching 👍
Birds looking good. You can make box’s around your and Antaina so they can’t jump over each other.
Thanks for the input Jack. I think it will work out. Have a great day buddy
@@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons I have a feeling it will all work out bud. But you know me I want to help if I can.
Where are you n south Carolina ? I'm n Ridgeville
good luck on pulling flights
Thanks, they are all out and it didn't seem to bother they much. Waiting 14 days seems to work like a charm 👍
Hello Mike, I guess you don't have to do any thing about the opening because in racing scenario all of them won't come in together.
I believe you are right and another friend said the same thing. Thanks for your comment 👍
Mike birds are looking good. Remember that on race day the first 3 birds that come in are the possible winners the rest you just want them to at least get home at a good time.
Talking about getting home, did all the Mortvedts finally get home from that one bad toss where you lost some.

What happened to that Stunning Rocky Ridge Grizzle Cheque I’m talking about the one that I wanted to buy a few weeks back?
I took that one off the racing team because I didn’t want to lose it it is in the stock loft now and is a half-sister of the one in this video
@@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons Good, Protect that one at all costs.
That’s right my friend and I’m hoping to have one for you next breeding season 👍👍
@@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons I appreciate man
Tiger Grizzle is its own type of grizzle. In order to breed them you need one tiger grizzle. You used tortoise grizzle and produced a tort grizzle.
Thanks I need to get a tiger somewhere. I know you are right my friend.
@@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons I'm looking for one as well. But I need a quality bird with pedigree to mix in my blacks and browns.
Very Nice All Raching Pigeons bro
So nice of you. Thanks for watching ✌️

Definitely don’t want to race molting pigeons.

I'm having problems with tail feather and the wire floor how about u?
I haven’t had any problems with the tail feathers and wire my spacing on the wire is half inch by 1 inch.What kind of problems are you having
what about shortening the door so they can't jump over their backs?
Sounds good buddy 💯👍
When they come home from a toss and they don't go in straight away that means they looking to go further the futher you toss the quicker they trap
yes, you are absolutely right, thanks for your info. ✌️
I don’t think it’s over feed because when they come down they do go straight in
Nice video my friend...I got problem with my birds they only circle for ten minutes..and sit with their beaks open dont no why🙏
Are they young birds and if so it’s usually a feeding problem because I know you’re bird’s are nice and healthy and free of bugs and worms. Probably to much corn (I don’t use any) and possibly to much protein. I hope you can get it straight my friend
Thank you my friend for the advice...have nice weekend.
Maybe it is a faulty chip ring, that would make more sense to me . 👍
I didn’t have to change any out so it was just them jumping over each other.
@@Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons it was my fault jumping in with a comment. I had a fancier with a faulty ring on one of his pigeon when we were at the club, basketing night. He was gutted to have to take the pigeon back as it did well the week before.
