Yellow is a nice and pretty color --but very hard for 72 y/o''s to read

 

Yellow/orange is the colour given to fancy fanciers by the webmaster,not of our own choosing but is a great improvement on the last pale yellow,you could hardly see that atall,perhaps you need to change your glasses Don,just a thought :)

Had them for years,exhibited 3 NPA champions and I am on the judges register for them.As I am near you,would be more than happy to help you choose stock etc.

Any questions just ask

I used to keep a few......lovely they were...I found them to a very steady bird....alot bigger than your average racer. Mine did fly out ...and flew well...

 

I didn't treat them any different to any other pigeons I had....they were very good breeders..but I would say that you need to use a shallow nest pan and get well raised,,as  I found that mine sat very tight on the nest, and had a couple of spread legged youngsters as a result

 

heres a couple of pictures of the ones I used to have..

 

NB the photos with a 'T' on them were used in an editorial we had done sometime ago about our business...and when posting them I must mention that they were gratioulsy donated by S*expletive removed*hopre Eveneing Telegraph.   ;)

 

As previoulsy mentioned by another member..I did sell the whites to 'Bewted' on here.
