Racers
The race pigeons are raced in the total widdowhood system. So both hens and cocks will compete in the extreme longdistance races. In my new loft I have got 2 compartments of 9 for the cocks and one compartment for the hens. In this compartment each hen has got her own compartment in which she is kept all day. Ones a day, before and after training they are able to eat and drink. About 50% of the racers are 1 year old, the rest is older. The older birds will race the extreme long distance races and the yearly birds are trained one day long distance racers and one overnight race. All races are born in the breeding loft or are from other fanciers.
