im searching the back of my mind i think we bought 6 or 8 about 3 years ago they flew the lanarkshire young bird program one left after 6 or 7 races but no winners. for the couple or £300 i spend a year buying in i'll be quite happy to spend it at the sales on here in the future   (hehe)(evil)

[thunderboult]

if had busschaerts and jan ardens(ardens/wegan/kuyper bros/van geels) and they produced lots of winner's and prizewinner's.

About 6 years ago i had a smash with the young birds and replaced them with 16 cheap youngsters from Louella 15 of the 16 never scored, however the 1 that did was a very very good hen who won in club fed and finished 12th in a national race.

I have had birds from them and won with some of them :) :)

[hotrod]

i think with the amount of youngsters they sell there is bound to be some winners among them.But percentage wise i would love to know how many sold to how many actually win or breed winners. very low i would guess

We had some in the 80's bred good birds. My father in law (RIP) did as well and flew a good bird up til a couple of years ago before family illness. A friend had some van reets and had good results too.

i dont think you can judge all birds that leave louella,reason being is that the fanciers pedigree in racing would dictate to an extent how the birds he/she bought would perform.

i had the 99-6 a few years back,one cock crossed with my hen bred an hen who would be my pounder or spot most weeks till i eventually lost her the following season from a short race...mr hawk or wires?

she scored in the fed  and had several club positions....3x 1st and so on.

i started up a few year ago i paid a few pound for a certain strain and topped up young bird team with louella birds so all in all roughly about half and half the loulla birds were every bit as good if not better in saying that i bought in another family birds year after and they both there asses one cock went on to bred a real good pigeon scored highly in big races

A member of my club when he came back into the sport bought a cheap kit of 10 braspennings and 10 Busschaerts.  

 

He lost most of the busscherts but the braspennings flew unbelievably well firstly as YB’s then OB’s. Many a time I was beaten into second on sprint and over the channel and he flew them naturally too. It is much the same where and other member was doing really well with some £10 lucky dip specials from lier market. A friend of mine said doesn’t it make a mockery of all you think you know, all your well thought out stock plans from generations of  birds flown and winning to one location when some one can buy birds from lier and do that.
