Nice to see you back Cinnamon 'Timbarra' Spunkmeyer!!
I have the Ronny pigeons and i can categorically state here and now pedigrees are not supplied with the birds - On request Ronny will issue parents and grandparents ring numbers - However not many have taken this option as they want the birds to do it in the basket before worrying about lineage etc.
Certain people have issued there own pedigrees with these pigeons but these can in no way be claimed as original or authentic as lets face it they have the name of the stud on top and not the actual breeder (In relation to the originals which were apparently sold on)
As Phil has said this thread was to congratulate a FORUM MEMBER on breeding 1st Section in a National and for no other reason than that - Some of us have these birds and obviously to buy them are confident they can acheieve the individual goals we set for ourselves (in the basket) If they dont then i am sure we will be as open about it as any of us would be if they prove to be succesful for us.
Why every single thread about these pigeons has to turn into a debate i really dont know - The guy does well with them in Belgium, they are doing well over here for the few that are racing them and they will live or die by the basket in the United Kingdom and not by the keyboard of some fanciers who regret giving up what they had.
End of rant!!
