Beanz Posted February 15, 2009 Report Posted February 15, 2009 Last year I purchased 2 great grandchildren of Red Daniel, one was a hen the other a cock, this year I paired the hen back to the cock that she was with last year as I liked the type of pigeon they were breeding, the cock has bred club & Fed winners but last Thursday he trod his hen and she walked away and just keeled over and died, there was nothing wrong with her droppings perfect, body weight ok and no signs of anything wrong, so he must just be hot stuff, but it now leaves me with him odd as I have no hens.

Paul hi paul, sorry to hear that, do you need a hen ?
Beanz Posted February 15, 2009 Author Report Posted February 15, 2009 Really would like to put him back to a Van Reet hen if possible. Paul
