Dear Fliers,
Spring and Winter are in a battle here, and Spring is finally starting to win. The birds that are here are doing great. We have the flight pen set up and they are loving it.
Please send birds at least 35-40 days old. Birds are chipped and vaccinated upon arrival. If possible vaccinate your birds 2 weeks before sending.
We would like to thank the breeders that sent birds the past 2 weeks:
2nd Chance Loft
A-Lin Loft
APC Loft
Bear Lofts
EFL Crucible
Funny Farm Loft
John Boyle
Life Loft
Mike Peacock
Powerstroke Loft
Sam Haslem
Rebel Loft
Rory Smith
Venn Family Loft
Vicstrom Loft
I checked in on a few boxes that took longer than they should’ve the past couple weeks, and a couple of them were checked into the post office after the truck had already been there to pick up the mail. Which means they sat there until the next day. So make sure you know what time mail pickup is at your local post office.
Prices will be the same as last year. We are doing a split perch fee. The initial perch fee is due with the birds, and may vary depending on how many birds you send. The activation perch fee is $75 per bird for every bird that comes back from the activation race. The entry form to send with the birds on the website helps break down the different options, and can be viewed here:
The biggest difference we are going to change for this year is that we will go back to average speed to award champion birds. There will be no point system this year. We will be flying the same course. We may add a race at about the 175 to 180 mark to try and help the birds with the 200 mile station that always seems to be hard for them. So there will be at least 5 races and possibly 6 in 2025, 2 of which will be over 300 miles.
We work hard to keep the birds as healthy and in as good of shape as we can. Once we start hauling the birds we haul them every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday to work them out for the races. We try to stick to that schedule as much as Mother Nature will allow. We always try to keep whats best for the birds a priority when making all of our decisions. We hope you will consider sending birds to Plymouth Peak Pro Challenge in 2025.
This is a very tough course with a lot of mountains and the races are usually around 1300 ypm so keep that in mind when deciding what to send. We will keep you updated with any news that we have. We hope to see you in 2025!
Thanks Again! Please call, text, or email with any questions.
