Anybody know anything about this breed of pigeon ? anybody got them ? race them ?

[Guest Silverwings]

T-T ,looked at some direct ones over at John Barnets very nice sprint type pigeons ,also took a look at some U K Bred  in an auction ? but they were not the same class as the directs , John recomended these as a cross with our  Voets at the time .....ray

Thanks Ray,

                Thinking of crossing some of them with my Busschaerts, not this time though, if I get any, it will be the back end of the season.  Dosn't seem as though many fanciers have had any dealings with them judging by the response.

Chris Little wins well with these - he has a "golden pair"..    Think his 1st Open SNFC Newbury was a Learemans cross pigeon

                      Nice to know for the memory bank.

All sounds very interesting in making my mind up.

 

Thanks folks.

T-T they have a god sprinting reputation.   If you want to gwet 250 miles or more, then I'd look elsewhere to be honest - but certainly a good sprinter

A fancier by the name of leon Bats who lives about 500 metres from van hove utterhoeven is one of the best sprint players in the club what frans laeremans.
