Wellcome new member we are all here to help enjoy the site

van loon had a few different strains and actually only had one line that really excelled as with all continental fanciers they bought the best they could obtain from different fanciers and after putting them in their loft they became whatever name the purchaser was called this practice went on for years and still goes on today

15 back now including two late breds from last year

recently started racing y/b this year after 3 years convoying birds had to come home to no one being there yet still managed to win a few races with help of ETS and one race taking first eight positions with my van loons but I have introduced some dirk van den buicks to cross with them for next year as my van loons are getting too closely bred in my opinion and they really crossed well when I crossed them a few years back so fingers crossed for next season already training late breds from last year and this year on good days

Wright choice but too expensive I would go to KEN WISE who has the best and is winning regularly in clud and federation positions is also friend of mark evans

Depends on what you want to achieve racing and what distance races you are going for also whether or not you breed from race birds if you want to compete at equal level with darkness fliers then you pair early and put y/b on darkness system if you are more long distance then around feb 21st is good time and raise y/b natural I have tried both systems with great success but am not that keen on yearlings following year I feel they are not up to par with yearling naturals although they will win I feel that the y/b s that have been stopped as we all do are better birds as yearlings so what is point of putting them on dark if we are going to stop them half way through season ? if we all bred later the birds would still be able to compete in later races dom McCoy

MIKES whites are bred down from ICEMAN AND beauty fantastic SERGE VAN ELSACKERS dom McCoy
