The weather wasn’t as nice today and after a nice day out yesterday we decided to stay at home before going back to work tomorrow. I was able to spend a bit of time with the pigeons and in the loft. I separated all the birds on gave the loft a good clean out. Removed all the nest bowls, put all the hens in the young bird loft and the cocks into the 2 old bird sections. I haven’t handled the birds much so it was nice to go through them. There are some nice pigeons in there.
I was able to find out which ones were which with the youngsters. I also took a few photos of the ones from Buster, Pete and Trev that they sent this year. I’m afraid they aren’t very good as it was a bit dark today so will try to get better ones when the weather is better.

Here are Buster’s 6.

The photos don’t do them justice Buster. I will try to get some better ones.

Well done Andy 👍 They are looking good bruv, some very nice looking youngsters there.
Those 3 of mine have come on ok, I did like the pencil blues, shame you dropped 1.
I still have their siblings, all survived the sickness I had and raced through to 150 miles.
