Totally agree, although I don't blame anyone but myself. I take a relaxed attitude when it comes to my birds and don't take things too serious as I enjoy my birds as a hobby. I have gifted birds to friends who have scored quite well with my birds as well as their off-spring out to flying France at 500mls. On the network site there is a local fancier who had a feature article done on him A. Mc Crudden and he stated the best bird he had was a hen he got from myself that went on to breed him birds responsible for 11x1st fed wins, but he was willing to put the work in. I believe if you have good birds you must give them 100% to get the best out of them.
