UkPigeonRacing

Would I be right from looking at a few you tube loft reports that the German club racing in the Hessan region or maybe all Germany is more like the traditional fed program in the uk or from what i understand even harder with birds going 250-400 miles pretty much week to week after the initial short races

Leading to the question why do we not see more German pigeons raced here

First of all Neil, to your Question about not many German birds racing over here. It's very hard to get transport from Germany to the UK. I would say if Walkers go to the Kassel show, there is a chance to buy some good birds at a very good price.

Racing in Germany, where my Friends Christoph and Leon race from, yes its like a Fed race and they also have combines. Flying the birds over there you have to be very selective on different races, Some very hard racing over there, so a good team of birds is needed .

from just you tube info so limited
They go each week ,one guy I think was like 200km 300km 350km then 3/4 400km in successive weeks

To be honest Neil, the birds are really tested over there. Traveling up the country, on the nose winds is very testing.
