Andromeda is one of the best racing pigeon I’ve ever had. This is my fastest short-middle distance bird with exceptional homing instinct. It took me 3 years to produce this talented bird which is a combination of many unknown strains. Before I preferred the brown feathered flyers to make my birds easily be identified specially during training and racing seasons. In Manila there are actually two racing schedules every year, the North for the month of October and the South for February.

The last lap for the south race is from Tacloban/Surigao to Manila and for the north is from Aparri to Manila. The north race is the tougher one where few among the thousand flyers survived and sometime no one came home within the cut-off time and one of the reasons is the weather, rainy season. Other pigeon clubs holds summer racing. Right now I stopped temporarily in joining the race due to my job time demand. Currently all my flyers and breeders are happily spending most of their time inside the loft. Sometime I’m a bit guilty when I hear Elton John’s Skyline Pigeon Fly song because pigeons loves to fly and play in the air specially in the morning where the sun is about to rise. Ohh! I forgot I race not for the money, I’m just an ordinary fancier with big dreams, I’m after for pigeon trophy or a club certificates which is enough to enjoy this hobby. If anyone of my flyers won the race well that is an achievement if they lose no problem.. getting back home alive is a winner for me.
