pjc Posted November 30, 2009 Report Posted November 30, 2009 The following 3 cocks are for sale due to wanting to reduce prisoner stock. The 2 pieds have both bred consistent birds to take club cards and the Blue was only purchased last winter and I've held all his young which have been well trained but not raced as yet. Starting bid is £25 each, buyer to arrange courier and sale end 10pm Saturday 5th December 2009.

pjc Posted November 30, 2009 Author Report Posted November 30, 2009 Thanks Ted, the first cock came from an old guy who spent a fortune on the old Workmans and Janssens with Llouella but due to his wifes health never had the chance to race them before getting Cancer himself. The workman shows through in the odd silver he throws. The second cock was bred as a latebred when we purchased 4 pairs of direct Roosen & Christiansen birds which have all bred winners for us.
pjc Posted November 30, 2009 Author Report Posted November 30, 2009 What breed is the 2nd pigeon? Kevin Roosen x Gus Christiansen
