Fair Play Posted July 27, 2009 Report Posted July 27, 2009 Delbars Little Chequer was paired to a grizzle hen and in turn produced down the line the Super Grizzle for Berlengee (100% Delbar). The Golden Grizzles are stiil sought after especially in Germany.Thomas Peeters bought the Golden Grizzle hen which produced Champion Barcelona .the strain is apparent in Jos Thone's grizzles after all is Peeters not his father in law may be wrong but might be right.350 to 700 miles these birds will do if that is what you are looking for.

peterpau Posted July 27, 2009 Report Posted July 27, 2009 Well I have the Delbars and the Aardens here and thats because I love the distance. Every week in the county there are more winners in our county than fly over 600 mile races in a year. I love the distance and take my hat off to the sprint boys but ???????????
pj1001 Posted July 27, 2009 Report Posted July 27, 2009 The late Dave Mc Neilly and Will Troughton in Ireland had the best of the Delbar birds at one time. They brought birds back direct from Maurice Delbar in the late 60's and 70's. A lot of the Ian Axe birds originate from these birds and both fanciers were very successful with the Delbars in nationals and derbies in Ireland. I think one of Dave McNeilly's sons still races these birds, but could be wrong.

I believe Ian Axe bought the 2 National winners of Phil Heslop of Annan which were bred from his bloodlines. I remember the guy I had mine from speaking of David Mc Neilly.
Guest bakes Posted July 27, 2009 Report Posted July 27, 2009 look at this beauty just found the pic why i was looking for some more info on these strains of birds

headwind Posted July 31, 2009 Report Posted July 31, 2009 J L ROBERTS, the BEST delbars ever to grace this land, you can keep your Irish Mint and Ian Axe rubbish couldnt fly the length of the garden....THESE CAN, AND A LOT FURTHER
Guest Posted July 31, 2009 Report Posted July 31, 2009 I think the spelling is Berlangee. I believe there was a particularly good line of these flew into Baillieston on the outskirts of Glasgow many years ago. I believe this was the origin of Mason's 1210. I think this pigeon was also connected with Ireland as the fancier moved there. John Robilliard in Cornwall has the Berlangee Delbars I believe
Roland Posted July 31, 2009 Report Posted July 31, 2009 I got a few of the Smiths Delbars of Skegness. They have done some great results for a Club mate.

Guest pigeon82 Posted August 21, 2009 Report Posted August 21, 2009 John Robilliard in Cornwall has the Berlangee Delbars I believe i know john robilliard he usually deals with show racers maybe he used to race beford my time but i known him since 98 and all ive known him to do is show racers never seen him race

Guest Posted August 22, 2009 Report Posted August 22, 2009 Who owns picture 3?? I want to buy it lol. What a pigeon that looks I bought picture 3 from the elimar site,when chris was selling them on behalf of steve stoker.i have him paired to louella jan aarden hen this year and have been delighted with the quality of young the cross is producing. although i do not show pigeons i have no doubt the cross would definately win in the show pen,they are stunning!
gooner Posted August 22, 2009 Report Posted August 22, 2009 i have kept some pure and crossed some with van reets and must say that the crosses are looking really good
