Franks Birds are so fast that when they arrive home they can fly several laps around the loft and still place well, now that’s Impressive 👀
That is funny. When the races get longer I usually do better. Hopefully they can open up a lead so I can lose some time at the lofts. lol
The first fancier to every show step by step. Thank you.
Happy you enjoyed
Hope everyone enjoyed the race and what goes on at McLaughlin Lofts to get the pigeons ready with limited effort.
great tips and video as always frankie

Happy you enjoyed
Thank you Mr. Funk like always thank you. You are the best personally me I enjoyed watching your KZhead.
So Happy you enjoy them!
Very informative and helpful. I think I can speak for all new flyers in saying that we appreciate your willingness to share your methods!
You are very welcome
Congratulations amazing results. I’ve flown in the past with tons of training tosses and lots of preventive care as advices from the older fliers and never came close to the top 20% I have faith in your program can’t wait to try it on this years young birds. Thank you for all the great advice
You will be amazed at how fast you climb the race result. Feeding is so important with good pigeons.
When I started racing pigeons about two decades ago, Frank's articles on the internet are one of the first stumbled into. Back then, I had so little understanding of what he was writing. Watching you now after all these years, still passionate as ever, is truly amazing. I hope you know how much you are helping newbies and even those who are already experienced. More power Frank! From Philippines ❤
You are too nice and I have many great fans in the Philippines. So happy if I can help a little
I really enjoyed the video frank these videos help me tremendously with me being new to the sport and all thank you very much 🙏🏼 and watching the birds come home is just a major plus they all look amazing and strong me not having enough birds to fly yet this itches me wanting to fly the birds lol but i only have the one pair and then the one staf van reet cock so I definitely not gonna fly them. And I am very excited to see what kinda hen u pick for my staff van reet Cock🙏🏼🙏🏼🧬🐦
Shipped a super nice Van Reet hen to you yesterday!
@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons I am so thankful for this you are a very awesome person and a good friend 🙏🏼 thank again 😊
Also I have a question is pearled barley just as good as hauled barley ?I will go through and check out some of your videos on it I have almost watched every video on your channel 😁😅 but I have learned so much just from the videos I have watched I feel confident in this hobby from just your experience I greatly appreciate your knowledge and generosity 🙏🏼🧬🐦🎯🪽🪽🙏🏼
You need to use the barley in the husk. I show the barley in my last video.
thank you Sir for sharing yung Race Program I will try your program for my derby race here in Philippines
Super!
Thanks for knowledge share your idea God blessed McLaughlin always subscribe 💯🇵🇭🙏🏿
I appreciate this!
Thanks Frank for the great video. Do you train and feed the same with young birds racing vs. old birds racing?
I train the young birds much more before the season and then they only train two days per week and race or train on Saturday. Usually I use a training truck on Tuesday to get them experience. Same feeding and system for the most part.
Frank I would love to hear your thoughts on racing during a solar storm etc. I kept my birds home today. Didn’t ship for races this weekend because of the solar activity. Great job in your races. Love the video
I was very worried and debated on keeping the best pigeons home. I shipped all of them and did this video yesterday on the Solar Storm Race: kzhead.info/sun/d8ioedR7rGSNhWw/bejne.html
Another great video are we replacing health oil and win mix and all the supplements you used to use for this new one ?
Last year I did not have time to mix anything on the grain and still had incredible results. I think it is best for most to use the winmix and Curol once a week along with yellow drops. My pigeons have been antibiotic free for so many years I think there immune systems are very strong. I feel I can get away with less.
@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons ok thanks Im following exactly what you do I ordered that new stuff you recommended
Hi Frank great video, I was wondering if you could you make a video about the Histoplasmosis and Cryptococcosis and the best practices to avoid getting them ? Thank you
Hello, I never treat for fungus. That is a good question. Good ventilation, strong immune systems and the pigeons built resistance. Essential Oils including Oregano has shown some positive effects. I use Nubiotic. Order here: agsuppliesdirect.com/ At Checkout use PIGEON5% End Sickness Naturally Must order directly through company. Use PIGEON5% at checkout.
Great results, Frank. Quick question: Any insights into giving unflavored gelatin? There is not much mention online, but one long time flier I know gives it in the water. I would imagine it's intended for providing collagen (proteins) and amino acids.
Hi Kerby, I have heard of fanciers giving gelatin in the past but I have never tried. I would think it would be for protein and collagen. Not really sure.
Great video as always! It's my son and my first year with pigeons. We currently have 28 YB we hope to race this summer. Trying to follow your training, feeding, medicating etc program's to a T. I do feel the whole loft as a little respiratory going on right now. Birds sneezing a little. As a first year flyer, is it possible to get past that without antibiotics? Suggestions? Thanks Frank.
Use the Nubiotic and add more ventilation. Open the loft up so more air moves through for the babies. They should be just fine over time and build natural immunity to respiratory disease. Send me a photo of up close of the babies or video so I can take a look.

Thanks Frank!!!! Currently using the Nubiotic, yellow drops, pretty much everything you recommend in your vidoes. I felt the YB loft was perhaps too open, closed up some of the ventilation already, but like u say the wild ones live under a bridge and are healthy. Will send a video later tonight. Your a stand up guy to respond to everyone's questions! Very much appreciated. Your videos have been our main mentors in getting started with the birds.
I am happy if I can help a little and give back to this sport. I have had an amazing run in pigeons.
Hi Frank I'd like to ask if you use magnetology app whenever you train or sending birds to the race. I hope you can give us some advice about magnetology/magnetic field forecast as I think it somehow affects the performance of the birds. More power to your channel!! Kind Regards
I do not pay attention to this but I feel it can effect the pigeons but effects more on the young pigeons. Check out this video from yesterday on Massive Solar Storms on Race Day! kzhead.info/sun/d8ioedR7rGSNhWw/bejne.html
Can you do a yb race step by step this year too!
I will do that!
Hi Frank. What do you feed to them for conditioning before start of the race season?
They have been on the 75% barley starting maybe six weeks before the season to get the body weight down. I was also measuring the feed to get the nice and buoyant before training.
Hello Frank do you feed your birds before a training toss. Tnx
They only eat once a day after the training toss.
Can you do a video on racing the birds in the heat. I believe the heat can make or break a race pigeons performance and ability to come home. So I believe my birds come back better in the cool weather. I looked at the stats for the last 14 years our combine has had terrible returns on anything over 80 degrees. I would love to get your input on this situation. Also my combine races across the Mojave Desert against head winds with high temps.
I will give this some thought and work on a video when we have a long race on a high heat day.
Where do you get your Barley from? I am having a heck of time finding unhulled...Am I looking for the correct thing? I tried to google the bag you show but nothing came up. Thanks.
I have my grain and supplies delivered by Global Pigeon Supply out of New York. Hopefully you can find a grain dealer near you. Check with Global and see if they have someone in your area.
Do you loft fly ur birds aswel mate or just toss them twice a week
My bird never loft fly. They only train two times per week between races. I do it with great pigeons and correct feeding.
For us beginners how do you monitor the wind ?
I look on the internet weather sites and see what is going on with the wind at different locations along the race course.
Nice 🌹run on🌹🇧🇩🌹tul tul loft.
Are you putting all the ingredients together in the water at 7:48 in the video? And is that on return day?
I put all together in the water on day of return. Works great
@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons Thank you. I am trying to follow what you share this old bird season.
Location: does living in the inner city matter vs country side?
Location will not matter. You can apply the same system
What's the size of the small pot you used to feed?
Here is the pot that I use. It is the pick pot from Versele Laga globalpigeonsupply.com/products/pick-pots-red
Hi, i have a question my pigeons loosing weight they eating good but light weiht nd looks week from last 7 months first tgey had green dirhea but no dirhea now .can u recommend medicine or email hiw can i contact u .thanks
Are many having this problem or just one or two? Do you live in the USA? Did you worm them? See this video. kzhead.info/sun/iKqJdcybimVtdn0/bejne.html I would put them on Nubiotic for one month straight.

@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons hi sir thanks for reply..i live in uk..my all pigeons have this problem .i even deworming them ..i have high flyer pigeons ...i checked your medicine thats available in uk but but very expensive. Do you know any other medicine which is cheeper . Thanks
I am really not sure the cause. You may need some testing from a good pigeon veterinarian before trying different products.
@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons alright ,thanks
Man I miss that feather like grass … here in Florida the grass will cut ur feet lmao
That is funny. I do not live at the lofts and my brother never mows the grass.
@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons I use to live in Connecticut and i remember the grass being so soft
I cant find the barley from Canada. Can Anybody help?
He probably uses Canadian barley because it's what is available regionally in New England. We are fortunate to have a ready supply produced here on the West Coast @ $14 per #50.
Kerby is right. Any high quality barley is fine. Mine is grown in Canada but I bought great barley when I lived in Oregon that was not grown in Canada.
@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons I think what we have out here is grown in Montana.
So you put all those products you mention in the water at the same time.
Yes on day of return those products are in the water to help the pigeons recover fast. With the feed. water and minerals they recover very quickly.
What is the actual name of your traditional mix versel laga traditional what ?
This mix was called the Sneaky Mix in the past. All small fat seeds. I will try to check the bag and see. I did not realize there were many Traditional Mix's. The one I buy is the only one carried by my grain dealer.
Thanks for your reply frank yes versele laga have an actual traditional range like racing breeding youngsters etc
I looked at the bag. It says Sneaky Mixture Expert on the label.
Any reason why you don't use droppers?
I do use droppers for the young birds. Got away from them with the old birds. The droppers do attract the hawks some but the pigeons not coming down is no fun. Usually the old birds come down fast but this year has been rough.
Just store water in a bucket that will be chlorine free d next day
I suggest many to do this and let the water sit over night. It is best to keep uncovered to let the chlorine go into the air over night. I usually just use the chlorine remover when I plan to add friendly gut bacteria.
