I've never liked that family of birds devo had friends spend fortunes on em bk in 06,07,08,09 when they was really thought after but not one friend ever got a good racer from them .

I keep saying it ,forget the names on pedigree if there's not 6 winners in first 8 pigeons in pedigree leave it out ,,all this double g child ,line bred to so n so ,inbred bred in the purple its all shxte lads ,
How man Hill billies you see in USA Olympic team ,zero that's what inbreeding and line breeding produces something that looks OK on out side but thick as pudding on inside lol.
All these names makes me laugh on pedigree, grass is green but I ain't with pigeons.

Lot of crap bred by everyone that with poor management and weak selection
Pigeon keepers not pigeon racers
So you need generations of winners and treat the birds like athletes and kill constantly not keep them because you haven’t got your box’s filled
I got ybs on Monday Neil 1 yb still hunchie today so it's culled but looked in book my pal as nest m8 I WhatsApp him have u still got so n so number yb he replied yes ,if he had lost it the parents were going straight in the ground as well n they have won but life's to short to mess around breeding rubbish.

Not sure devo crap is crap pal ,,
I'm honest n don't dress things up most lads who get 6 baby's of me get 4 winners some less some more and all different systems,,find a flyer who wins n selects hard n you get good birds find a good buyer with good pedigrees n you lose most the baby's because there paired on paper not on real merit .

There's more strength in a fizzy drink as some of these birds nowadays,,there either just slow homers or weak as pixx ,I've had same birds 15 yrs odd with tried n tested introductions along the way ,,I look on Internet and same flyer in Belgium in the sprint hotbed not where its weak n they get co offient for awards the sprint hot bed n same names still winning as they was 30 years ago.
