What kind of racing is this? it brings the crowds out to watch.

A bloke I work with told me his brother in Pakistan does a thing where they all have cocks and they do a hobby where they chase a hen but they dye there cock pigeons to recognise the first one to mount the hen
That’s not that as I got the impression he meant 25/30 cocks we’re in the competition maybe it’s a variation
I can’t see that being it though

My own thoughts is there is 2 sets of release points, so the one who ends up with the most birds is the winner.

Yes it’s 2 groups or more and you nick each others according to google
My grandfather use to do the same sport in East London with about 40 other blokes from there lofts which were within 1/4 mile of each other
