Guest Posted October 30, 2007 Report Posted October 30, 2007 Does any one have this mans direct birds
ribble Posted October 30, 2007 Report Posted October 30, 2007 i belive his son still has the birds and breeds them for sale,i'm sure he has advertised in the squills or bhw stud book within recent years. when i visited eric in 1998 his son lived next door to him.
Guest Posted October 30, 2007 Report Posted October 30, 2007 can you try and put me in touch with him ? do you have his birds?
ribble Posted October 30, 2007 Report Posted October 30, 2007 the only way i could is by looking in my old books which are in the loft,i will have a look in the morning. I visited him with the view to trying some young in 1999 but due to his wife passing away around the time they were going to be ready it never happend. i spent about four hours chatting to him at his lofts and learnt a great deal he was a straight talking fellow one of lifes characters.i will never forget it because when i went back to my car i had to put the heat on and thaw out for about 10 mins before i was fit to drive.i don't think he new what the cold was. i know chris gorden had them at the time and also mick burden uttoxiter(?)was racing well with them.
Fair Play Posted October 30, 2007 Report Posted October 30, 2007 Saw on Elimar Chris Gordon sale a couple of the birds were bred down from a the best winning cock of E.Fox Chris had the cock on loan, give him a ring he will probably have the information you require
Guest Posted October 30, 2007 Report Posted October 30, 2007 I know chris had one but i was looking for something pure

Fair Play Posted October 31, 2007 Report Posted October 31, 2007 As long as its not all useless we tend to be very knowledgeable North Of The Border ;D ;D :
swilcox Posted October 31, 2007 Report Posted October 31, 2007 Jon De Ville has them, pm me for his number
wolfey11 Posted October 31, 2007 Report Posted October 31, 2007 Alan Maull in South Wales has some nice ones I believe. Think he may be member on this site or one of the others. Could be wrong but I think he's "Alan"
GROVEHOMER Posted October 31, 2007 Report Posted October 31, 2007 Frank, if Micheal Burden has Eric Fox birds, he lives in Uttoxeter, is a member of the NFC and has appeared on the NFC discussion forum recently. He timed quite a few reds in from Tarbes this year, reds appear in alot of Chris Gordons' birds do they originate from Eric Fox or Chris Gordons' friend in Wales or am I barking up the wrong tree? Hope this helps.
Guest Posted October 31, 2007 Report Posted October 31, 2007 dont know thats what iam trying to find out
ribble Posted October 31, 2007 Report Posted October 31, 2007 yes they do contain reds.there was an article in the bhw around the end of july regarding mick burden's restart in the sport.
