The White Rapido Man Posted August 17, 2007 Report Posted August 17, 2007 just been testing out my new camera.............and thought I'd post a couple of photos of some of my Rapido's........long with little lads Roller that I am not allowed to get rid of .........he is only 3 and a half.....and he loves this little bird. When any visiters come, he marches them down to the loft to proudly shows them his little bod!!!
Guest REDFOXKRAUTHS Posted August 17, 2007 Report Posted August 17, 2007 love the red grizzle at top all very nice
The White Rapido Man Posted August 17, 2007 Author Report Posted August 17, 2007 love the red grizzle at top all very nice Thanks.....I must admitt that he is a cracker.....very nice shape and form, infact I bought him in as a latebred in o5, and he's a Rapido decending from Superman. I manage to settle him and train him with the others even though I dont race...hes the first back every time by a long chalk........but he hates me...........He's nicked named the 'The Growler' as he starts as soon as he sees me!!!!....his son is in the picture below him.......the 'Growler 2' who seems to have inherrited his dislike of me!!!! I am in the process of getting some stock together to race with next year (my first years racing), but need a new hen as his got nailed by a goss halk about 3 months ago.
