depends commercialy most want pure strains these will win , but when you cross they tend to invigourate the birds breeding better pigeons if both familys were very inbred then i would suggest a cross |

First decide whether you want to excel at sprint/middle or long. Whichever it is, get two families, test them vigorously, keep the best of each, then cross them together. You create your own family, whils injecting hybrid vigour into the originals. Job done! |
