You've put a lot of work and love into your birds Muzza and you want something left to take with you when you move, you know your birds and if your gut tells you that they have had enough then you should following your instincts and leave them be.
All the best mate.

Racing today from Minyip which is 100 miles due west of here. South west winds predicted so it will not be a mad dash to the south boys this week.
Only sent two, including the chequer cock who has been first one home in his two races so far. He's well too, he was sitting on my shoulder growling in my ear yesterday.
He's suddenly realised he's a cock I think!
Should have a couple of yearling hens and four cocks including the good mealy for next week. A couple are driving hens now so hopefully they will be settled down by next week.

Six flyers sent pigeons. It was a funny race, slower than I expected. Finished third with my dark cock coming from behind again but a good effort just the same.

Only 5 flyers got birds home so it was a strange race.
