If it is from Dave Delea, it will be his and brother Paul's family. Dave and Paul have bred their own family for years, only bringing in a cross from each other's loft. Don't think outside blood has been added for some time.

Dave Delea strain because it is the same family he has had for years and only swaps with his brother and no introductions .

It's sire was 18th Perpignan 24 th Barcelona also 7th international Lourdes and 1st nat

Dam, 9th nat Marseilles her parents were 3rd/10th nat Pau and 2nd/3rd nat Marseilles .

Not bad breeding .

Will put my head on the block Del and say I culled his dad leb who was son of Brian leadbetter Bergerac winner because he had been with a few hens and bred nowt but I loved his calm nature so put him to our mcgimpsey hen who has bred loads for me and the brother and along came young leb and he had something about him and has came good and luck giving he will do better next year , he don't handle great nor look fancy but he oozes confidence and so do his young so here's hoping for a bit of luck .

Ps on sires side he is same way bred or close to the pad fields Barcelona 2nd open 2015.

Their lofts used to house a lot of black pigeons, similar to the bird in the first photograph.

 

If my memory is correct their base pigeons were of the Champion Major strain ??
