Are you racing pigeons for a while without winning regularly? It's disappointing to enter in race after race without a {victory|win. Or maybe you want to raise pigeons for profit. It's fun to raise pigeons, but it's more fun to keep healthy pigeons. In this article are three guidelines to keep pigeons that win contests.
1) Health is imperative. When ever buying pigeons, buy only healthy birds. Don't even look at anything else. Then make certain to provide a clean, secure loft area. It should be clean and dry with good ventilation and plenty of sunlight. It may also be vermin proof to keep away rats and mice. 3 quarters of winning is good health.
2) Cull seriously. When culling your loft area, remember, pigeons can be broken down into 2 groups: Good birds and bad birds. Color, looks and price have nothing to do with it. Great pigeons are the ones that win contests and they aren't always the best looking. In the event that a breeding pigeon basically producing winners, cull it. Forget how much you paid for it or how "special" it is. A few good birds is better than a loft packed with bad ones.
3) Permit races determine which birds to keep and which to cull. It is a pretty amazing pigeon fancier who can tell a winner by simply looking at its form or into its eyes. "The eye of the tiger" does not exist in pigeons. Provide small birds time to develop, but don't keep losers in your loft. Winners breed winners. In the event that you want to keep homing pigeons that win competitions, keep raising pigeons that win races.
If you are serious about raising pigeons, get advice from winners. Sure, it's fun to talk to your mates at the pub after having a race, but study from experts. Right now there are some excellent pigeon raising books that will help you turn your loft around if you consider their advice.
