  6. 1st Club Clermont 358 miles 10th fed this year fed for me , fed cancelled two channel races , I get plenty in fed result , and as for the novice I've helped out for two years in Hetton fed he didn't buy one bird his father asked me if I'd breed him some . Not to mention birds I've sent out to help others for free and loaned stock and gave birds away , I actually don't like selling birds nor the hassle that goes along with it , but those that have bought birds have received good birds and most come back , I get asked to supply far more than I can cope with , I'm certainly never going to be a bird factory in a 38 x 6ft loft , I wont be advertising any as I don't need to , I have enough people returning to me and I try to genuinely help be it with birds or advice I never push birds or hold a gun to anyone's head . Plenty of members out there I've helped and received many pms of thanks , I'm not money orientated that's not my goal helping others is
  7. Sellers cock which I also call the envelope cock yup the envelope was his pedigree never seen a race basket breeding winners , ok it was selected out of a good performing cock so the price to pay was a high one so he never saw a basket never won a race himself but a proven breeder yes , race winning birds don't guarantee winners had plenty that were out and out racers and nothing good came out of them , so winner to winner can equal = inferior birds just as much as two non raced birds. Most things happen by chance two birds that click and breed winners surely this is the beginning product of the race loft not the end product of the race loft . Without breeders there's no race winners .
  8. Bet there's many a champion racer that's left nothing but disappointment in the breeding loft not every winner breeds there type , one of my current breeders was crap on the road but bred good birds up to 1st club 13th fed for a novice friend plus 2nd club year before , If he bred his like they'd be in the bin , Sally Gunnel's parents couldn't run a marathon , breeding from proven birds that breed winners is the start , but the attributes required to win are all natural and far more random or we would all have just a few birds from winners breeding winners , birds will alway be by natures design not man's , I'm with Dal sometimes other factors come out like within my family I started with mainly grizzles and reds and yellows , most of my full coloured birds from my grizzles flew much better , chocs in mulemans tend to breed good birds but poor racers the best racers were blues pencils ectra but not chocolate . Pete Thorpe discussed with me about a pair of nothings , breeding no end of winners for him and others , so selection is the hardest thing even Deklacks had his eye on binning a hen that he left be had ybs and the hen was nothing , yup that hen made deklack famous and bred far more winners than most of these so called super bred champions of paperwork pedigrees with umpteen winners on .
