jimmy white Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 Any strain have look at the results and see who is consistently winning then when you made your choice try and find out much as you can about them and who is doing well with pigeons bred by them i re-iterate rose remarks , but would also add ,, try and find out ,how your selected fancier, manages them , for me this is the all important ,especialy in sprint races Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

just ask me Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 i know there are a few winng big with roland jannens but for the amount that have been sold over the last few years should there not be more wining tne rene van der weyers seem to winning in most cases i say i most cases so dont get on to me with the wind behind them unfountlly there have been no strain in the last few years too swep the country like the way the staf van reets bussharts did in the last 20years the soonjens are flying well in all regions and i like to see that in a strain of pigeon so in other wards not just winning in one area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whats it called Cumbernauld Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 Best to try a few, cause one that works for some, may not work for others.Environment and other issues just as important as strain of pigeon. Start with a few and prove which one is best for you and your loft management Happy Days Rab Smith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
