wayne77 Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Hi Wayne, By all account's, I think Telford is still on, Frank does have some great Thas bird's, look's like Ulster loft's got there before you. Don't think birds will be on stalls though. Cannot argue with any birds raced by F&A Tasker. Think R&B Smith at Warrington race some Thas birds successfully Great bird on front cover of bhw this week not sure of breeding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No 1 Posted November 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 I will be totally honest with you Wayne, we went through a lot of Thas, not a very good strike rate with them, there are good and bad in all strain's, the Thas do seem to have a higher percentage of bad one's, don't fill your loft with them!!!

No 1 Posted November 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 You are very lucky, we had them from all the so called star's, beckam, rooney dommen etc, all in the bin, the origanal blood from the late 90 s has been very good, we found the new blood did not work for us. Is that you Paul ?????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Sayers won the young bird national this year followed by a chap called dave evans then it seems to be Geoff clare for quite a while in the result Just so i dont sound totally out of it i thought i would bore you with such information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Smith Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 Re the R&B Smith question we got our Willy Thas birds from Geoff Farrell who bought all of Graeme Whites birds, including Dark Destroyer and Annie. The bird on the front of the BHW is a Van Reet. We do have a very good Thas cock 57 he has won the North West Classic Sartilly. 4th section 4th open NFC Sennen Cove, 11th section 21st open NFC St Nazaire, 6th section 107th open NFC Fougeres, 59th section 136th open NFC Cholet, plus winning on the land as well.
