He moved to Cali. I heard the pigeons in ringside were left to fend for themselves. That's sad if his pigeons became clincas, rats aka street pigeons. Not gonna say money, but more time goes into racing pigeons than horse racing. You have to drive hundreds of miles early in the morning release them to train pigeons for a race. If you dont put in the work you dont get results. Telling the homer pigeons I'm mike Tyson go win this race. Dont work. I had the record with Canadian high flyers. In union city NJ. They went pin high for 6.5 hours with a roller in the flock. Danish and levats are some of the best high flyers. These are some nice birds. You have to be a pigeon man to appreciate life style

@ishmaelforester98255 жыл бұрын
Interestingly the pigeon breeders partly inspired the Origin of Species. Darwin studied the artificial selection of the pigeons and largely developed his understanding of natural selection from what he learned. The pigeon tribes are amazing creatures, some of the most successful animals and obviously have a profound relationship with humans.

Pigeon Racing is sadly in decline. Due to the expense and hawk problems. My grandfather and uncles all raced pigeons. I Remember my first involvement with pigeons going with my uncles to the club on friday nights. Setting the clocks for the race .And putting the birds on the train.Where they travelled to the race point. And released the following day weather permitted. Love pigeons. Great memories. Still a big part of my life today.
