New Imported Breeding Stock Arrives
Overview
New imported stock has joined Frank Loft to refresh speed and endurance in the breeding team.
Janssen and Koopman related lines were selected for orientation, muscle quality and proven race results abroad.
This Frank Loft tip was published on February 8, 2025 and is kept as a practical guide for fanciers following our Chennai race programme.
Key Points
Apply these ideas step by step. Small weekly improvements in loft care and training usually beat sudden hard changes before race day.
Keep simple written notes for each weekend so you can compare what worked for short, middle and longer races.
Practical Loft Routine
Start every morning with a quiet loft check: droppings, water, feeders and bird behaviour before any training plan begins.
Clean and dry resting areas help birds recover faster after hard tosses and race returns.
Handle birds calmly. Stress in the loft often shows later as slow trapping or uneven condition in the team.
Fresh water, clean feeders and dry perches should be checked again in the evening before lights settle for the night.
Training & Race Week
Build training distance gradually. Overworking late in the week before basketing reduces race-day sharpness.
Match feed to the expected liberation and weather, then return to recovery support after the race.
Benzing G2 clocking at Frank Loft helps compare true arrival times and keeps club verification clear.
After returns, give rest, water and a calm loft so birds recover before the next training cycle.
Breeding & Selection Notes
Use race results, not looks alone, when deciding which birds stay in the race team or move to stock.
Young birds need short, regular tosses and patience before they join harder Chennai club competition.
Record parent pairs and race weekends together so future pairings follow proven performance.
