It's a terrific little pigeon! :D
This is the pedigree of the father of that youngster. Bit of depth there.

I don't have the pedigree of the mother, the 600 mile hen. She flew 600 miles 3 years in a row, as a yearling, two year old and three year old. When she arrived here she was gifted to me. Then last year the bloke contacted me and asked if I still wanted her. He realised he was a bit too casual giving her away. I offered to give her back but he wouldn't take her since she was in the stock shed and being used.
He was itching to though. :D

Yep, he is. :D
It was a bit tongue in cheek putting a 6 week old youngster in against some very high quality pigeons, but the pigeon is a very good one. The picture does not do him credit. He is a very good youngster.
Morgan obviously liked him. ;)

A very nice pigeon Murray with a great long distance pedigree. Quite inbred on the paternal grandsire side.
Back just enjoying club racing for the time being.

Look at the wattles George. You can tell they are very young birds, the wattles aren’t white yet. I think the pied is just in a better light.
