                                  Breeding racing pigeons to perfection

                                             for the perfectionist

 

As many of you know ive entered a team of young birds in the RPRA one loft race this year, and one of these is a yellow kirkpatrick / Jan Aarden.

 

I must admit I got a lot of stick about this, some people said Kirkpatricks where no good as they were to slow and what was i thinking putting one in that had Jan Aarden blood in it as i needed sprint blood, not distance blood. Then came the colour, a yellow cheq people said i must had been mad.

 

Well i sell a lot of yellow pigeons so i thought i should put my money where my mouth was and enter one.

 

This is the story of

Perhaps some one should tell the bird he's yellow.

I've a grizzle flown Palamos and Perth, and I had a barless hen 2nd sec 20th MNFC.

Colour conts for nothing.

Hi Kev

the little yellow i bought from you is going to its first race tomorrow.  alway there or there abouts on every training toss mate.  will let you know how she gets on

[pjc]

Glad its still there for you!

The positions don't mean a great deal at the moment, when you look at the training tosses the birds are arriving together and its pot luck which trap 1st.

I went and saw the new pigeon I'm getting next week and it is a Kirkpatricks Yellow pied.  Bred by Ian Mitchell of Ayr.  Can't wait.  

 

Good luck to yours in the race.

Hi Kevin

I know this bird well of course as you cannot miss it being Yellow lol. I can tell you one thing she nearly always arrived back on her own from training or racing think its a Hen. I have got to like her now as never had a yellow before something different to me one thing she never gave up it came back from the Final..

[kraftykev]

Thanks for that mate, im really glad she got home.

 

Please thank every one who works with you and indeed yourself for looking after my birds so well.

 

all the best
