Racing homing pigeons is a enjoyable and a great source of entertainment. Pigeon racing is actually the sport of releasing pigeons which are trained specially for racing.
And after releasing, the birds will then return to their homes over a carefully measured distance.
The time it takes the bird to cover the specified distance is measured.
And the bird’s rate of travel is calculated and compared with all of the other pigeons which participate in the racing, for determining which bird returned at the highest speed.
Generally homing pigeons are used and are very good for pigeon racing. The Racing Homer is considered as the best pigeon breed for racing homing pigeons.
The pigeons which participate in the competition are especially trained.
They are trained to fly higher for long time, and from long distances. Racing distances can vary from 100 km, to 1,000 km.
Pigeon racing is a very exciting and wonderful sport. The races can be won and lost by seconds. and there are many different types of timing and measuring devices available.
The racing pigeons are generally kept together in a dovecote or loft which is specially designed for them.
They are kept in such loft from their 4-6 weeks of age until the end of the racing career. The loft is the home for the racing pigeons.
Pam please tell Donnie these Hansennes do indeed have a lot of class. Large wings like I've never seen like maybe on a duck or owl. They have a lovely prance, and their Roman noses takes the cake. Love it! Keep up the good breeding Donnie.
Dear Don,
Just sending a gift for my appreciation for getting such nice Sion birds from you. When I get some youngsters from them, I will send you some photos. I am still planning on purchase another hen and cock. Have a good breeding season with your birds.
Received birds this morning here in Missouri. They are safe and both beautiful.
Beautiful female pigeon. Lovely mix of colors, fether quality and great posture. I figured her picture wasn't the best pose. The male is impressive and very masculine looking and I'm happy to say they are calm and get along very well together. Thanks again they are gorgeous....
The birds arrived today got them all tucked in the loft. You saved the best for last I think there nice birds ,,only sorry I didn't buy a couple of the other hens. Thanks alot

Hi this is Nate from Wisconsin. I just wanted to let you know the Andalusian cockbird made it here in good shape today. Thanks again!
Hi Don, birds are adapting well. I like their presentaion & calmness. Looks like they will fit in with my birds. I see what you mean about the BB. We'll see how he produces. Might b a genetic thing & go away when crossed with and unrelated hen.

Jim
