you don't have real homers then...they're prolly crosses with kings...try buying some quality homers that are white...a lot of people sell them, but they will be much more expensive. Pump them and use the whites you have now to foster them. 10 miles is nothing for a real homer. Even 50 miles is nothing. My whites have gone 150 and I've never lost any. Good luck!
I started out with 2 whoe homers (pure bred) and 2 white fantails- of course the young bred toethe and I eventuallly lost the white homer strain. I'm actually into showing now- the training took too much effort.
I gave up on these two, they were way too tame, would prefer to hitch a ride on my shoulder! I trained 10 of my other birds got to 10 miles and 2 of my birds didn't come home, I just couldn't risk loosing any more.
i have 2 java doves, for magic, let them loose never get them back
haha
