i think most birds have the ability to breed tidy racers it's down to each fancier to find the right combination in the breeding loft and then be able to race them

hi pigeon man i'd agree with you that there is prob. thousands that are no good and the ones i've bought myself for racing have been terrible to put it mildly but the birds i buy for breeding i cross and the 10 birds in my stock loft from louella have all bred winners or prize winners crossed with local performance pigeons

yeah your doing alright only a minute or so off the winners , well done ,with a bit of luck it won't be long b4 you win

there we are leighton you've hit the nail on the head

it may be from a 1 loft race

hey paulo how'd you get on this week all home or what?

hey wiley my reply was to pigeon mans first post on this thread not the one he sent to paulo me thinks it's you who's confused

hey pigeon man they are a breeding stud they don't race the birds ,if the birds they send out are so crap how come they have stayed in buisness for so long.....get real man i've bred loads of winners and multiple prize winners out of louella stock and not only for myself, i'll give you a couple of examples 1 of my hens finished 14th open last year at europa a full sister is currently 5th in the ace bird series after 3 races(she picked up £458 in pools this week) both parents from louella no pedigree sirex dbl great grd dtr of inv. spirit ,i also had a hen from palamos this year sire louella jan arden,i only started in 2004 first yb race 1st+2nd club3rd+8th fed dam of both birds from louella,i also got a cock who scored in 4 nationals last year both parents from a kit of louella racers, i could go on forever but i'll leave to those few for now

hey guys i bought 2 this week and i'm very happy with them and they'll breed the goods i've had a lot of success with breeders from louella, not much joy with the one's i've bought for racing(1 good 1) but the 1's i've bought for breeding are producing some very tidy birds

we've had 34/36 with welsh sr from salisbury up at 1 pm 7 came together along with 3 strays to take first 7 in club (only 1 came in z ring midlands nat )

in swansea it's partly cloudy with no wind as such... it's quite a nice morning

jimmy when you go to europa home page on the left is a list select training you will then get a list of trianing and hot spot races click on the 1 u want ps if you have pop ups blocked you'll have to turn it off on the europa site as the results are on a pop up

how'd you guys get on today 1 of mine was 56th she's also been 205th+28th

keep putting them up stu, ignore the moaners 99 times out of a 100 their talking through their a**e anyway

i see the birds are up today at 10.10 from crewe for the third hot spot race any members on here got any in the race if so how you doing

best of luck dave, keep dreaming it can happen i started in 2004 in my first yb race took 1st+2nd club 3rd+8th fed

your having a good debate about which way the wagon faces but what about if your birds are in the bottom baskets compared with the ones in the top as i've seen many pigeons in the lower baskets knocked to the ground by birds coming out above them, surely it's better to be in the top baskets what do think?

sent 37 natural youngsters for their first race salisbury(103mls) with the welsh sr fed birds up 3.45 got 32 on the day 3 this morning flying to llanelli, taking first 6 in the club

all welsh birds should be stamped , i do mine but you don't get many reported i've only had 5 birds reported since i started in 2004 and 1 of those was in hamburg,germany , i think that most fanciers think that they won't want it back and don't bother reporting it , i've reported about 6/7 birds in last 2 weeks and not a single one was wanted back ,1's from irland another is from poland ,2 from wales and 2 from essex area, i don't want to keep them myself but i realise that it's getting expensive to send birds so i offer to toss them closer to home for other fancier's

i currently have 32/37 from salisbury with the welsh sr fed living west of swansea birds up at 3.45 had 5 together 6.10 all natural

first race of the year for mine going to salisbury(103 mls)sending around 30 will check em tomorrow as i'm natural and they're getting on in the moult

thanks rose, he dropped in today with the youngbirds i think he's a racer as he's wearing an ets ring

the above pigeon just entered my loft with the young birds i'm guessing it's polish ,the 0356 is under the PL it's an 03 bird with a ets ring on
