DES COULTER HAS A FAMILY OF DISTANCE PIGEONS.

THE BIRDS ARE PREDOMINENTLY GRIZZLE ,BUT THERE ARE NON GRIZZLE BIRDS AS WELL.

HE KEEPS THEM AS NEAR TO NATURE AS POSSIBLE IE OPEN HOLE ETC.

THEY ARE NOT TOO EXPENSIVE LAST TIME I LOOKED.

YOU WILL GET HIS NAME IF YOU PHONE THE BRITISH HOMING WORLD-HE ADVERTISES THERE!

I had a pair from Dez, when paired together first year bred four to race lost them all, following year crossed them with my own and they were good.

 

One cock as yearling won 2nd sec NFC Nantes and 2 weeks later won ist open Northern classic, another cock timed in on day from Saintes 538 forgot the position he won. So I supose I am saying, yes they are ok, I was and still am satisfied with them.

who knows

 

thanks again look forward to hearing anybody elses experiences with them

I have done well with Des Coulters birds straight and X i have had them in the BICC,NfC and classic on hard days as has Keith Palmer from Swindon.Des is honest and straightforward and only has an 18ft loft he does not use antibiotics his record is second to none. Isuggest you go and meet Des and Pam and see for yourself.

Andrew you have had birds from Des for 3 or 4 years how have you done with yours and are you racing on your own now as i thought you were going to university and cutting back ?,

Hi,

 

Thanks good to hear they are doing well for you, i had a pair to start with i loft the cock and only had the hen 4 years ago since other than that i havent raced them, my farther has taken a break from racing since 2006 i did the same in 2005 when i went to uni although i still kept some breeders which i sold earlier in year which were klak based i now have 4 pairs from des which i borught when i visited him a month or so back i am very pleased with them, i hopt to build a long distance family round these.

 

i have started my job now and am in a regular shift pattern so i may consider racing these in the long distance classic & national races only
