has it a rubber ring on,dont pull it down untill you know its been entered in a race,people breed pigeons for stock aswell and fly them out

11 out of 11 still went over though and thats from 120mls,but well pleased with em,ive heard that loft at the front of me managed to get a few out when they came over.

carry on stu,always good to see whats for sale and what breed they are.great stuff

middle to long distance.the ones ive got carnt beat the sprinters i have,they are always the last back and do get left behind in training,but will this be reverse at 200mls plus ? one thing i do know there definatly bad day birds.

agree 100%

a lot of unions dont have to stamp them ,but r.p.r.a members certainly do and should not be even raced without been stamped,but your right surely theresmore chance in getting them back if stamped,were all ere to help each other,i think ? :-/

9/12 from kettering still won the race aswell has last week aswell,i think youngsters arnt just breaking out,they come over in droves over here and if they dont pull out there up in durham before they know it and then need to face an head wind back down,birds were up at 1.40pm and had one drop in at 7.45pm ,i could tell hes never touched the ground since been liberated.Hope we all get some more back.Good luck

Missing from saturdays race Blue cock GB07Z41860 Blue cock GB07Z41866 Blue cock GB07Z41868 Please check your lofts for flown out strays and check the ring numbers,most would be appreciated has i would really like these back,might still be flying lost with a lot more but with some luck might get home.

pontefract/wakefield very low cloud 1pm ( dont like the look of it ) still waiting for a lib time. :-/

very well done,like the pic

i was 1st 2nd 4th 5th8th 10th combine in year 2000, from folkstone 204mls with the old janssen red fox blakeways,that was my last year on the allotments has i moved house,not really raced much since,ive just messed about with birds but my full start back this year with youngsters winning 1st club today so its a good start.

1st club,1st 2/bird club also 1st nom bird,18 sent 18 home.well pleased for 1st race in a few years,cheers ray.

the old busschearts were quit ugly ,but still dominated races,i ve seen louellas web site and feel the busscheart youngsters on there are very true to type,what you get from alot of fanciers are the birds they have bred for themselves on what they like to look at,louella dont do that they just breed the strain for you,its then upto you to keep the good and get rid of the crap,but personally if i was going to get the busschearts i would only go to louella,look at some peds of the best busscheart flyers there is,they NEARL all go back to the originals from louella.Les

yes i have.

Normanton&district fed cancelled racing all weekend,was going to be our first race aswell,93 mls for first race now next week.

ive looked at your site timbarra,and i am really impressed with the old blood of vanden bosch you have,but to be all honest i wouldnt feel that good trying to sell a pigeon that old even though he is a champion pigeon in is own right,after all he deserves to stay were he belongs and pass away there,thats my honest opinion anyway.good luck with hin.

A FRIEND HAS GOT THE SOOTJENS FROM FRANK SHEADER AND HAS BRED THE SAME COLOUR HAS THIS COCK NOW FOR 3 YRS,NICE BIRDS BUT WOULD SAY THERE BETTER AT THE DISTANCE HAS HIS JANSSENS BEAT THEM ON LAND.

feed them until they go for a drink and feel full.

why are you doing that.?

looks like 2 of the rings belong to the same person bud.

because he propably already has his youngbird team,these are really classed as latbreds.

some breeds have better homing ability than others,its bred into them through selection and getting rid of the others that dont pull the line,you need to develop natural homing instincts,some breeds do tend to search straight for home when released from a race point or training,dont know if any one else has noticed this but a pigeon has a better homing ability once he has spent a night or two out,and thats because he has had to use his own brains to get back up and search for home,some never do that but the ones that do tend to make winners or very consistent pigeons,theories are theories but lets be honest without these theories we wouldnt have the makeup of the pigeons we have today has there is always somethink there to get the edge on other fanciers by theories.Les

theyve changed there numbers again vic,been talking to a friend who works for amtrak and he says they are loosing orders everywere because of there crap managment of the buissness,if you want a pigeon sending off or fetching back you just cannot get them to pick the stupid phones up.

some of my best breeders gone bye had 11 flights in there wing,they also pass it down through generations aswell,but doesnt stop them winning.

do they win races at top level.
