As some will have read I gave my first round away this year. I have too move loft and the move was planned to be around now, so I reared yb accordingly, though my 2nd round was a bit soon. However the planned move is still only on the horizon I'm waiting for the farmer to alter his field so I can get a new loft up in the new location. What's really kyboshed me though is losing my licence, these birds have only been out half a dozen times!! I weaned my 3rd round yesterday. pics below  labelled 8wo which stands for 8 weeks old, 6wo, 6 weeks old etc, those marked weaned were taken away yesterday 23 - 26 days old.

I'm a useless judge on looks so don't know if they look the part.... after alll I was never interested in the mantlepice when...... :X :X. Any take your eye?

Good pick Monkeynuts and DJW and Paul? His dad is a Hartog bred several winners and his dam is full sister to NFC section winner, but the Hartogs are pretty birds I believe

8183 and the 2 red pieds look real nice mate although they all look good

 

Two red pieds I'm really excited about, dad's a Mealy flown Palamos and mother's a very well bred crested jan aarden dk ch, like to see them throwing different colours to parents and do like reds, hopefull these are future Tarbes/Barcelona birds

Yes I like this one I must admit, sire a Gaby I bought from louella grandson of Picanol, down from £250 to £90 dam bred 7th open NFC just under 10,000 birds this year.

Me too Bob, sire a '99 Cannon Cock bought at a bereavement sale this year (ashamed to say I always get a mental block and forget this sadly passed top fancier's name, he was a real gent too, Stuart did the auction) and Stuart lent me a very nice hen to pair with him

looking very good mate. 8wo c 1971 dark checker says it wants to come and live in my loft :P :P :P

 

That's the same way bred as the two reds Gooner picked out. They are I hope/beleive capbale of getting 700 mile, its whether I'm capable of getting them there and a lot ofluck to miss Percy

Blaz, 14, that's attachment 8872 if I'v counted down right? details in reply 13 above. Can't tell you of the top of my head what they are, but I have a feeling one is half bro/sis to 23 2nd Marmandes 473 miles beaten by loftmate and 18th section NFC Tarbes 556 miles. They have the same dam bred by Dobellaire in Belgium and she if I remember right is a half sister to Rex 1st Belgian National
