"ninety not out" was our first bird to the loft in 9 races between 330mls and 550 mls scoring in 8 races with her highlights 8TH WEST SEC 79TH OPEN FALAISE SNFC. 520MLS 12TH WEST SEC 120TH OPEN NEWBURRY SNFC. 1ST CLUB 4TH OPEN MIDLAND FED SALISBURY. she won 4 x SNFC diplomas and 6 federation open positions during her career and also some club positions,we have some lovely children off her but both my dad and me will miss our good old hen.
