I have always liked the breeding of Harry/Hoymanns and Rudy/Vandenabeele Trev. A good cross I would say, and you can pick up some nice birds at a good price.

Some of those pigeons look nearly as good as the ones we have in my back yard, Devo! :D :lol:
I like the Vandenabeele strain too. The blue white flight hen that is the mother of "Free Beer" in the Meadow OLR is Heremans x Vandenabeele. All her youngsters are great types, strong and sensible. I think she's an asset to the loft.

Yes Murray, we have reallly nice birds with some good family lines. We are sure going to see some good racing results from them in OLR, They wont be far off training for the Meadows OLR.

Just been looking at these 3 pigeons, they would be a good add of new blood for future breeding.

I have to admit I'm not terribly interested in googling around looking at what I might like....
We've got some brilliant young pigeons for the stock loft, a few very good 2 and 3 year old stock birds, and a little one in a nest that just might be off the latest bestest imports Pitbull mubble mumble....
I am very happy with what we have, the shed is closed now. Except for the couple of children of the Hawkeye I've got to find a space for. :?
