I went to photograph the following pigeon belonging to a good friend of mine yesterday and when i found out what the bird had done it caused me to think!

 

The qustion is when do you consider a bird good enough to retire to the stock loft?

If it breeds a good pigeon that keeps winning.... Needs to produce the goods to earn a place for me

 

I would agree with that for starters.

like one to race first before going into stock loft with consitant good results not just one performance selection must be hard in the few  years back into the sport apart from a odd hen that i put that would have raced as young young bird but bred good ones with my widowhood cocks  and would be a full sister to a cock that is racing well (downside of widowhood cant fully test hens on the road ) i only have put one cock so far into stock loft

 

have a cock that breeding winners  racing at the moment and is a good racer if hes there end of the year he will go in too  ;)

and if he's not - he won't

 

the sires and dams of our winners have all been sent to one race too many

so far he has 17 x 1st club, 3 x 1st fed (may be 4 times as he may have also topped a different fed as a yb), his sire, g/sire, gg/sire and ggg/sire are all multiple winners and breeders of winners but the cock in the pic still hasn't ben stopped for stock.

Would be my stock now prob. Unless I still had the sire firing out young then see no need to I suppose, May as well keep winning with him and let his sire keep the blood coming out
