She does love the birds mind...dont get me wrong..... they both handle them with no fear... I have a couple of hand reared birds that will fly off the roof onto my shoulder or hand with a quick call...........and Kiki goes mad at that !!!............. " again Daddy...again" My wife, on the other hand has proved much harder to train -

I think there far too much emphasis on material things nowadays... and most kids are far too wrapped up in computer games... TV, sweets, and designer labels..... if only they had some one to show them that the most enjoyable things in life are simple...........and very inexpensive!! Im loving every minute of it, and am looking forward to many happy times with 'ma boy'................ not exlcuding my young daughter of 2 of course..... but she s already showing disturbing signs of going to the 'Dark Side' with an unusal and frightening obsession with shoes, handbags...and anything Pink!!!!! ;D -

Yes..............is my favourite bird............. a Van loon Cock brough across from NL many years ago.... He's 11 now, and hasn't filled this year............. I have however been able to float a couple of rounds under him and his hen..... to maximise the whites Im currently breeding..... He is a great dad............. and pumps those Yb's so full of grub, they look like they are going to burst! -
After a dissapointing start to the season when my first round got killed be a mystery killer 'still at large'..... I am pleased to report that my first years racing will still be going ahead.......here's a few pictures of the stock, and the YB's .... sorry about the amount of photos...................I just got abit snap happy ;D

Unfortuately alot of 'white pigeons' get passed off as loguns................. and they are in some instances no better than short tailed doves of white yackers!!!!! yours look superb you should have no problem shifting themj
-
if there are such stout believers in eyes sign....why has someone not quantified what they claim, and turned the therory into a fact. Its all to confusing for me.....
-
breeding nest mates for me it far too close for me......I had a few accidential matings...and the birds werenot quite rigth somehow. I am told though that daughter back to father is one of the best methods of line breeding.

Im going to race white Rapidos and Loguns this year so I'll keep you posted on how they perform

I ahve found this with the Karel Hermans Wille.......... they do have a distinctive silky plumage...totally different the other birds. ;D
-
looks very effective good job......... Personally I would have prefered the roof to be meshed as well.... but that is not in anyway a critisism;)
-
Perfect to ground to have a run with the lurchers!!! Very impressive set by the way

Thanks all.....................and for the kind offers. Nothing ventured into the trap...so I guess the attacker will remain a mystery -
I always rrpa ring my whites...... along with a number ring. I've conducted over 300 wedding releases and have never had a compliant. Also I find if you want to ever sell the birds on, the ones that are rrpa rung are more desirable, and often sell for abit more ;)
