The Village Lad’

When you get a pigeon of this calibre put into your hands many thoughts go through your mind, then you begin to assess the pigeon from years of practice, wings have one flight thrown and almost regrown, pectoral muscles nice and spongy along both sides of his keel, good feather quality as you would expect, plus a nice firm back, short keel and good vents, topped off with a lovely eye which I wrote up after his first Combine win. He is bred down through mainly pigeons of Janssen blood, with his sire being bred by Morgan & Harrison of Tynemouth from their Marshall pigeons, which of course are from the Ayton Marshall lofts now run by Theresa and her two sons since the passing of Ayton, of fond memory. His dam came via Warren Foster’s sale at Barnsley a few years ago through Klak and Pouw Bros bloodlines, which is the combination which produced this magnificent cock, who will go down in history to sit alongside ‘Mons Hero’, as a very special pigeon
