Just I've never heard of them and a fellow I'm working with sold man flys them and says you can't miss with them

Is it not a cross Stuart?

I believe the Carlins had some up till recently. They will still be in this area.

There are quite a few advertise them for sale, but since Kirkpatrick and Dr Anderson imported them some time ago and Bricoux died some time ago, I very much doubt their ability to keep the strain pure. As Bussheart used to say, if they are in George's loft they are Busshearts, so what are Bricoux now?

Theres an old guy from Fleet outside London still has them, John Farrer. There was an article in one of the stud books around 2012 about his family of Bricoux pigeons and their results for himself as well as others. I have spoken to John several times on the phone, total gentleman.

[alex young]

Looking through 2016 Squills last night, page 295 Jim Kimmance L/Pool still has them saying he has had them over 55 years now,not sure if Jim still races them now though.
