Big Davie Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 I know it says at the start of this thread that Jimmy had Vandenbeele lines' does anyone know what other lines are for sale and if there is any distance blood lines available, maybe his own old family of birds ??

Jim hannah Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 I worked with jimmy maybe 25 years ago, I remember he won the Lanarkshire 500 mile race ( I think Sartilly ) with a pigeon he called Jamie Boy after his son, don't know what strain it was thoughIt was in the early 80's Jim topped the Fed, it was a blue hen I believe. it had only two races that year, it flew the comeback race from Lancaster then was basketed 4 days later for Sartilly. as regards the breeding I think it was a Krauth pigeon from somebody in Ayrshire ?. It was a very fast race with high velocities. Jim may well still have the photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
