hey westy, i dont sopose you have any chocolates on your race team, if so do they fly well or are they just bonnie to look at ???  ;D

 

as iv always fancied a pair but the only place i know of who has them are louella and to be frank the birds in the past from there that my father had were not worth the amtrak fee never mind the price paid for em  :B

PJ Lofts quoted "Chocolate Meulemans

 

We have a number of direct G. H. Schalkwijk pigeons from Holland. they race as well as they look. P.J. Lofts have one of their top stock birds, the 'Truffle'. He is Sire and Grand-sire to many top winners in both England and Holland."

Buy a chocolate pair or Pure white pair   :P :P

 

They're lovely colour birds, Sharron.

in that case westy my knowlege of genetics tells me that if you wanted him to breed chocolates you would either have to breed with another chocolate or a pencil of the same lines that has given chocolate offspring before or breed it back to a daughter. as chocolate colouring is double ressessive meaning in order to be chocolate they have to have 2 ressessive genes. (one from the sire and one from the dam)

 

(my colour obsession comes from a love of genetics, as well as the fact that they look pretty  : all being well when my A-level results come out tommorow i should be going to study Genetics/biology at newcastle uni

 

i hope he does well for your westy as he is very stunning, almost as stunning as my seagull cock (aka very huge pied staf van reet) that jimmy sent me lol.

 

i am now seriously tempted lol all i need is some white ones, chocolate ones, mealies, black ones and a silvers and i have the compleate rainbow pigeon set  :-/ i think lol

 

[ribble]

good luck with your A level results,hope you get your grades.

[hooky]

how can you people tell it is a meulman just by looking at it?seriously i have had many choc gay pied from numerous families

[Guest beautyhomer]

He is a recessive red pied,chocolate is a term used by racing fanciers.All his young will be carriers for recessive red.If you pair a daughter back to him,half the young will be recessive reds and the other half carriers.
