How many pigeons can enter a race

The number of pigeons that can enter a race depends on the race. Some races have fewer slots, while others allow more participants.

A race needs at least 2 pigeons to take place. That means a race cannot start with only one pigeon entered.

There is no fixed maximum across all races. The total number of pigeons that can enter is different per race.

In practice, each race shows its own slot count on the race page, so you can always see how many places are available.

When you open a race, you can see:

This makes it easy to see whether the race is nearly full or still waiting for more participants.

If a race does not get enough participants, it does not start.

In that case:

Race size is not the same for every event. Always check the race page for the current slot count. A race may still show as Pending until enough participants have joined.
