Guest IB Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Inbred pigeons are said to lack vitality, brother & sister is as close as you can get, had a cock bird bred for me off a brother & sister pairing - he was full of beans, I lost him on the road as a yearling. Tried it only once, none of the youngsters made it to ringing stage, living skeletons. I think it depends on family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest IB Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 ian maybe you should have crossed him out and raced the young birds from him thats what i'm planning to do with these pair but they will also be raced Yes they are deffo for breeding rather than racing. He was a blue cock bred by Jimmy White, and on his advice, was paired with an unrelated inbred grizzle hen, and they gave rise to my grizzle line.
