If all the theories about eye sign & you pair the best to best just on eyes how many or percentage would be good racers if using this for breeding.
I'd be more inclined to see winners consistently across the board on both sides to tell me if the pigeons worth my hard earned cash, surely that's what we should be guided by, & more importantly the basket never lies.

I’m not sure even that is true, isn’t there an “Enkel ogg “ within the Hererman-Ceuster pigeons? 🤣

Eye sign Theory was just that when it was first proposed Many, Many years ago and it still is, I’ve seen that many excellent performance/ breeding birds that were supposed to have poor/mediocre eyes according to various “experts” and many more birds that had “Champion” eyes according to the same experts that had done or bred nothing
Ken Hanby and others had the best theory, foot sign
